"For a while, everyone just stopped playing," a spectator said. "Both teams just started mingling with the fans, completely forgetting that the match was still going on."
This nearly pushed the match into sudden death overtime, but in a masterful final minute, Coach Cozza told his players to play and they all did.
The results were mixed, and it still is not apparent who the actual winner is. Team Cozza left the arena before the results had been tallied.
"We don't really care what happened here today," Coach Cozza said. "We are more concerned with learning how to play whatever sport we need to know how to play tomorrow."
Team Cozza has another championship bout tomorrow.
