Michelena was named the game's MVP (Michelle Bridges)

The Coventry Jets made a convincing debut in the Eurobowl after coming from behind to defeat Valencia Fireboats 36-16 on Saturday.

The visiting team took a 10-0 lead, but the Jets began their fight back in the second quarter through Dax Michelena.

In all, the debutant threw four touchdown passes and ran in another.

Gerry McManus' side are next up against the Oslo Vikings later this month in what is already being described as the group decider.
