Allen, Texas (Jan. 14, 2017) – The Dallas Sidekicks move to 5-8 in Major Arena Soccer League play with a dominating 12-5 win Saturday night to Turlock Express.

The Sidekicks came out hot in the second quarter, Sidekicks goals were scored by Fernando Garza and Clark Binning.
The Sidekicks’ came out firing the third quarter with goals scored by Clark Binning, Nestor Hernandez, VcMor Eligwe and Cameron Brown. Hernandez scored his first goal of the season for the Sidekicks after he signed with the team on Wednesday.
