The Cards’ offense turned up to another level as they created 13 goals during the week, by far the highest two-game total of the season. The main beneficiary of the offensive explosion the Cards had last week was junior Javier Mendoza. Mendoza scored six goals with hat tricks in both matches to lead a Columbus team that created chance after chance in front of goal.
