Calanda Broncos beat Warsaw and move into the European Cup final!
The Calanda Broncos once again entered the history books of American football last night. In the semi-finals of the European Cup, the Broncos beat the Warsaw Eagles 17-7 at the Obere Au stadium. With an impressive crowd of 1,179, it can be said that the atmosphere was great, even if the first quarter remained scoreless. GRToday reports on a hard-fought game in which the Warsaw Eagles, Polish champions and previously winners against the Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns, took the lead with a touchdown at the beginning. But the Broncos didn't let themselves get down and fought back.
After a field goal to make it 3-7, the Broncos pulled off a spectacular trick play when Max Gray threw a 46-yard pass to Adrian Sinnerhauf, which led to the touchdown and the lead of 10-7. The Broncos defense was strong throughout the game, and Noah Bachofen secured the win with another touchdown near the end. This performance secured the Broncos' place in the final of the European Cup, where they will face the Thonon Black Panthers, who in turn won the second semi-final against the Carlstad Crusaders 28:26.
