I saw this match too, they were extremely effective at pushing the third robot into the fender and keeping them away from the bridge. Here's video

The strategy is to keep the third robot away from the bridge, while avoiding penalties. It sounds difficult, but it can be done, as seen here. Kudos to 488 and their alliance partners for putting together a smart strategy like that in week 1.
