Happy Birthday America!
The 4th of July has been a good day for the team! NBites has just come from our 6th game here in Austria, letting in our first goal of the tournament, but still winning 2:1 against NTU Robot Pal (Taiwan)! This moves us forward to the semi-finals tomorrow at 9:00am, facing the Nao Devils once more.

There are two quarterfinals games left today: B-Human v. CMU at 3:00pm and Austrian Kangaroos v. UTexas-Austin at 5:30pm. We wish the other American teams good luck!
The Northern Bites are on a roll, recently defeating UChile Kiltros 3:0, making us the winner of our pool, and pitting us against NTU Robot Pal (Taiwan) tomorrow at noon local time.
Maybe the increase in goals is due to support from our visitor from home!

In our fourth game here in Austria, the Northern Bites managed to break our two goal per game streak and score 3 goals against TJArk (China). This, paired with our win from yesterday against the Nao Devils, qualifies us for the quarterfinals round!
