WESTPOINTE, Utah (LNS) August, 11, 2007--This evening, Olympique Montreux played smart enough to win 8-0 against Utah FC in Premiership league action.

The win came after an important 3-2 league victory against a well-oiled and young Lazio team on August 4 at Westminster College, and a 2-1 victory against a very good Ogden Lobos team on August  9 in Open Cup play.

The Olympians managed to capture a full six points in the two league games [Lazio and Utah FC] and tallied 11 goals against 3.

Westminster FC visits Diablos on August 16 and mighty Lazio on August 20, while OM travels to Bosnia USA next Saturday.

“We are trying to stay calm despite the pressure that comes with being the team to beat in Utah.  We are the reigning treble champions and we are well in the hunt to capture not only the league, but the Utah Open Cup and the Daynes Cup,” said OM manager Bel-Ami.

“It has been a good year so far. We won the Spence Eccles Winter Championship last February, finished third in the prestigious Budweiser Cup in Las Vegas from a field of 43 teams from all over the United States and Canada. We also captured the 2007 Park City Tournament last month. Not too bad for a team everyone wants to better on the pitch.”

With the signing of defenders Zach BURTON and Richie LINDRUP, forwards Sina ALIPOUR and Ricardo MARTINEZ, and the return to action of last year's golden boot Sergio Vasquez, skillful midfielder MAURICIO BORBA who was influential for OM at Lazio, and striker Jakke CAVANAUGH, the team should be able to compete on all three fronts. That is despite the surprise departure of long time member Jesse DAY and midfielder Matt WOOLLEY to Rush Elite.

“We signed a great group of young men. Look, Zach has already won a game for us when he headed home against Ogden in the closing minutes. Ritchie is solid in the back. He has great work ethics and Ricardo's work rate is amazing. Sina has blazing speed and great vision. We should be able to get everybody involved in our rotation, explained Bel-Ami.
