LIVESTREAM Spain: Gijon Mariners @ Zaragoza Hurricanes, Jan. 25, 11:00 CET (11 am, 5 am, ET)

The Zaragoza Hurricanes (0-1) welcome the Gijón Mariners (0-1) to Movera Football Field on Sunday morning in a matchup where both teams desperately seek their first victory of the young LNFA season.

Hurricanes seek offensive spark
Zaragoza comes off a hard-fought 14-7 road loss to Osos Rivas where they demonstrated defensive resilience but ultimately fell short offensively. The Hurricanes showed promise with Jesús Sánchez breaking loose for a crucial touchdown run that briefly tied the game before halftime. Their offense had opportunities to tie or win late but couldn’t convert against a stubborn Osos defense.

Mariners look to rebound from blowout
The Gijón Mariners suffered a tough 48-6 defeat against defending champions Las Rozas Black Demons  in their opener. Their lone bright spot came when American quarterback Justin Agner connected with Yasser Iraola for a touchdown, providing a glimpse of their offensive potential. The Mariners will need significantly better defensive execution after surrendering 48 points in their debut.

Early season urgency
Both teams enter this contest with identical records and similar needs to establish momentum. For Zaragoza, the challenge involves finishing drives against a vulnerable defense. For Gijón, the focus will be containing the Hurricanes‘ ground game while finding more opportunities for Agner and Iraola to connect downfield. This early-season matchup could prove crucial for either team’s playoff aspirations down the stretch.
