Game Central
The Black and Blue outshined the Black and Red on Saturday night. With an added spotlight performance from the Week 21 MLS Player of the Week, Mr. Emanuel Reynoso, putting away both goals in the Loons a 2-0 win over D.C. Next up, MNUFC has an exciting midweek matchup against Premier League side, Everton F.C. Everton is currently preparing for the 2022-2023 season with a two-game tour in the US of A. Last week, Everton played the first of these two games on Saturday where they they lost 0-2 to fellow EPL side, Arsenal at M&T Bank Stadium. The Toffees now make their way over to Minnesota to face an MNUFC squad that is lead by Everton legend, Adrian Heath. For those who are unaware, Heath played for the PL side from 1982-1988. In that time, he made 226 appearances, scored 71 goals and won multiple trophies for the Toffees.
