LATE STEPANIUK GOAL SAVES VORKUTA ….. The CSL Weekend Wrap-up

Midfielder Djordjije Jocic opened the scoring to give Serbian White Eagles a 1-0  lead at 75 minutes in the weekend’s opening game in the CSL First Division played at Centennial Stadium at Etobicoke on Friday night, but Iourii Stepaniuk tied the game 1-1 at 93 minutes for Vorkuta.
