LIVESTREAM: Switzerland – Geneva Seahawks @Calanda Broncos, Monday, April 22, 2p CEDT (8a EDT)
In the most anticipated game of the week in Switzerland, the defending champion Calanda Broncos (2-1) will play host to the 2-0 Geneva Seahawks Easter Monday in Swiss National League action.
These two teams met a couple of weeks ago with Geneva coming out on top 14-12 in Geneva. Calanda defeated the Seahawks 44-12 to win the 2018 Swiss title.
Geneva quarterback Kyle Graves was solid in the win over the Broncos, throwing a touchdown pass to wide receiver Antoine Brandt and running back Morgan Nkule bulled his way in from the one yard line for another touchdown.
Fullback Steffen Haenelt scored both touchdowns for Calanda. The Broncos were missing their two top receivers in that game. However, following the Bronco’s stunning upset win over Poland’s Wroclaw Panthers in CEFL play, the offense seems to have returned to normal. Broncos quarterback Connor Manning threw two touchdown passes in that win and ran another one in himself. Severin Murk hauled in one of those touchdown passes while Lukas Lütscher caught the other. Melvin Sassi also scored on a rushing touchdown.
The biggest question today will be if the Calanda passing game will be back to normal. If so, this combined with their powerful running attack ,could make it a long afternoon for the Geneva defense. However, if the Seahawks can control the line of scrimmage and get pressure on Manning, they could surprise the Broncos – again.
