Karak Norn Blitzers 2 - 1 Night's Watch

In what was to be a tense match between the commanding Night's Watch and the dauntless Karak Norn Blitzers, both teams were out for the other teams blood after their previous encounter. The blitzer's, having been painstakingly defeated in the last encounter, seemed filled with purpose as they kicked to the opposition opening with a bonecrunching injury to the Night's Watch norseman.

The use of a deathroller was not lost on the Night's Watch as it proceeded to roll over several terrified players, knocking them out in the process. They pushed towards the ball but the night's watch were as ready as they are dangerous, pushing a breach through the blitzer's left flank and scoring early into the first half of the game. This did not damage the resolute blitzer's morale or purpose as they again opened with team-worked violence allowing for blitzer Drakk Rik to sprint past the perforated defense to score his second touchdown of the season at the ending moments of the first half.

At the opening of the second half both teams were struggling to field players with several knocked out and one of the Night's Watch injured. The blitzer's would recieve again and this time it was karak Hunk, the team captain who took responsibility for the ball. Pushing down the right flank of the night's watch the formed cage helped to injure yet another night's watch player, while the rest of the pitch was a desperate melee between dwarf and Night's Watch team member.

The snow troll was a constant danger to the blitzer's line often keeping several dwarfs down at once while the rest of the team attacked the cage. Despite their efforts Karak Hunk dodged through behind the lines making his way to score, and with the dark elf tripping in pursuit Hunk's path to score was clear.

With the blitzer's in the lead, and several players now off the pitch all the dwarfs had to do was hold off in the final moments, and although the night's watch offered a swift retribution for the second touchdown, their speed was not enough and the game ended 2 touchdowns to 1, giving the victory to the Karak Norn Blitzers.

With both teams having won home matches, and easily being the closest rivals in the league, many expect a vendetta match to ensue at the end of the season, with fans, coaches and players alike showing their dislike for the other team in what was a very close match.
