SOCCER BACK IN FULL VOICE FOR CIVIC HOLIDAY GAME

SOCCER BACK IN FULL VOICE FOR CIVIC HOLIDAY GAME

The holiday weekend schedule in both divisions

When Serbian White Eagles kickoff against Hamilton City at Centennial Stadium in Toronto’s west end Friday night the immediate vicinity, or perhaps a little beyond, will be well aware a soccer match is taking place.

That’s because the booming, familiar voice of Enio Perruzza will be heard announcing every player taking part and the important statistics and additional information the fans need to know in an event known for many decades as CSL pro soccer.

The game Friday night, August 3, 2018, is number 3,527 for Perruzza since his first time behind the microphone at an official CSL game involving Toronto Blizzard 32 years ago on August 3, 1986.

While the Canadian Soccer League has been Perruzza’s favourite league over the years, announcements and commentary have involved all levels of soccer in southern Ontario. From the academy game to top level professional soccer, from visiting teams such as Benfica from Portugal and Red Star Belgrade from Serbia, to the Italian National Military Team and the Mexican U-20 National Team – which saw many of the players move on to the World Cup – have all been announced locally by the Italian-born Perruzza.

There are dozens of important cup and championship matches, mostly in the CSL, but also 20 Ontario Cup semifinals and 18 finals.
Perruzza, 52, is back in fine voice for Friday’s match following heart by-pass surgery earlier this year. After calling a few warm-up games, the voice of CSL soccer moves into the second half of the season with the playoffs and key championship competition looming large in the coming weeks.

The Serbian White Eagles vs Hamilton City First Division game at Centennial Stadium Friday night, a 7 pm kickoff, starts the Civic Holiday weekend games and will be followed by Real Mississauga vs FC Ukraine United at the Hershey Centre, an 8.30 pm start on Friday. On Saturday it’s SC Waterloo vs CSC Mississauga, a 6.30 pm kickoff at RIM Park and FC Vorkuta vs Scarborough SC at Esther Shiner Stadium. That’s a 7 pm kickoff.

There are three CSL Second Division matches scheduled during the holiday weekend, with Serbian White Eagles B at home to Halton United B, a 9 pm kickoff at Centennial Stadium on Friday, to be followed on Saturday with Scarborough B vs FC Vorkuta B, a 1 pm kickoff at the OSA Soccer Centre Stadium, and on Sunday it’s Brantford Galaxy B vs Milton B at Lions Park, that’s a 6 pm start.

SCARBOROUGH HELD TO 1-1 DRAW SUNDAY BY VISITING REAL MISSISSAUGA

Real Mississauga held Scarborough to a 1-1 draw in the only First Division match played in the Canadian Soccer League Sunday.

The visiting Mississauga side opened the scoring at 30 minutes of the game played at Birchmount Stadium in Scarborough when Real Mississauga defender Edmond Badal drove the ball into the corner of the net with Scarborough goalkeeper John Trye well beaten. It was 1-0 at the interval.

There were close calls on the Real Mississauga goal with Scarborough’s Aleksander Stojiljkovic and Kiril Dimitrov striking the woodwork, but it was newly signed midfielder Zoran Knezevic who found the net past Real Mississauga goalkeeper Senad Poracanin, the equalizer coming at the 55th minute mark.

ZAKRAJSEK LEADS WITH FOUR GOALS IN HAMILTON VICTORY REAL MISSISSAUGA UPSETS SERBIAN EAGLES 1-0

ZAKRAJSEK LEADS WITH FOUR GOALS IN HAMILTON VICTORY

REAL MISSISSAUGA UPSETS SERBIAN EAGLES 1-0

Hamilton City striker Tim Zakrajsek led his team with four goals to a 9-0 drubbing of CSC Mississauga, and in one other game Friday night, an own goal by a Serbian White Eagles defender late In the game gave Real Mississauga a 1-0 victory.

In a game that ended in a downpour at Iceland Field in Mississauga, the visitors struck early when midfielder Krista Glasanovic found the net past Mississauga goalkeeper Fans Efendic almost immediately following the kickoff.
Zakrajsek made it 2-0 with his first goal at the 4th minute mark and added his second for a 3-0 Hamilton lead at 15 minutes. Zakrajsek completed his hat-trick at 33 minutes for a 4-0 score and scored his fourth goal at the 50th minute mark.

Hamilton forward Sani Dey also scored three and a second goal by Glasanovic completed the scoring for a 9-0 result at the final whistle.
The win improved Hamilton City’s record to 4-4-0 WLT for 12 points, tied for 4th position in the standings with Serbian White Eagles, while CSC Mississauga are still winless with a 0-7-2 record in 9th position.

CSC Mississauga team manager Shawn Bhikhu explained his team is not discouraged by the winless streak in its inaugural year in semi-professional soccer.

“ The CSL is a tough league, very competitive, but most of our players from the Hamilton area are stepping up, getting used to it and gaining confidence. And there is still time remaining in the season to get results,” he said near the end of the match.

A fumble in the Serbian White Eagles goalmouth at 81 minutes broke a scoreless tie with Real Mississauga at the Hershey Center. Serbian Eagles defender Branislav Vukomanovic attempted a pass back which eluded goalkeeper Nemanja Radenkovic and the ball entered the net for an own goal giving the home side Real Mississauga a 1-0 victory.

It was a close contest throughout with Real Mississauga coming close to scoring in the first half.
The win gives Real Mississauga a 2-3-1 record for 7 points and a leap to sixth position in the standings, while Serbian White Eagles have a 3-2-3 record for 12 points and remain in fourth position in the table.

Real Mississauga will be playing a second game in a two-game weekend back-to-back by visiting Birchmount Stadium on Sunday for a match with Scarborough SC. Kickoff is 8 pm.

There are two matches in the CSL Second Division over the weekend, one on Saturday at 8 pm with Halton United B at home to Milton SC B at Norton Park and on Sunday it’s Brantford Galaxy B at home in Lions Park to Scarborough SC B, that’s a 6 pm kickoff.

IT’S GOALS THAT COUNT IN BID FOR CSL FIRST DIVISION TITLE

IT’S GOALS THAT COUNT IN BID FOR CSL FIRST DIVISION TITLE

Its goals that count is becoming clearly demonstrated in the CSL First Division where high-scoring Vorkuta FC, FC Ukraine United and Scarborough SC, are beginning to exert some superiority at the top.

Serbian White Eagles in fourth position continue with each game to demonstrate superior defensive strength, having conceded just five goals – the lowest number of goals allowed in the league since kickoff in May. But weakness in front of the net is a big reason for the 2016 CSL champions trailing division leader Vorkuta by 10 points in the bid for the First division title.
While that can change quickly, an early trend stretching past the halfway mark in the campaign is usually a fair reflection of strength and weaknesses to be considered in the drive for the league title and the championship.

Four players with Ukraine United and three with Vorkuta occupy 7 of the top 10 positions in the CSL First Division scoring race, which expresses diversity in their scoring – they don’t appear to depend on one outstanding striker to do the job.

The CSL First Division scoring leader is currently Aleksander Stojiljkovic of Scarborough with 9 goals and is attempting to repeat his goal scoring title winning performance of 2017 when he found the net 17 times.

There are two games in the CSL First Division on Friday when Serbian White Eagles will attempt to increase their scoring at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga against Real Mississauga, an 8.30 pm kickoff, while close by at Iceland Field Hamilton City is visiting for a match at 9 pm against CSC Mississauga.

Real Mississauga will be playing a second game in a two-game weekend back-to-back by visiting Birchmount Stadium on Sunday for a match with Scarborough SC. Kickoff is 8 pm.
There are two matches in the CSL Second Division over the coming weekend, one on Saturday at 8 pm with Halton United B at home to Milton SC B at Norton Park and on Sunday it’s Brantford Galaxy B at home in Lions Park to Scarborough SC B, that’s a 6 pm kickoff.

CSL HOPEFUL OF A SOCCER STADIUM IN MISSISSAUGA

CSL HOPEFUL OF A SOCCER STADIUM IN MISSISSAUGA

The soccer community in southern Ontario, including the Canadian Soccer League, has for many years encouraged the building of a soccer stadium in the city of Mississauga and recent discussions have led to a decision by Canada’s sixth largest municipality to allocate $100,000 to study the question.

Mississauga, located in the region of Peel and the adjacent Halton region, has for many years been one of the fastest growing areas in Canada for soccer. The Peel-Halton Soccer Association, with a registered outdoor and indoor player population of 83,000, is the largest district soccer association in the country and the Canadian Soccer League has had a strong presence in the municipality going back to the launch of the professional Toronto Croatia team in 1956, with the club’s headquarters in Streetsville for many years.

The long-standing Canadian Soccer League and the Canadian Premier League – first announced in 2013 and with a more recent timeline for kickoff in 2019 – both have an interest in an enclosed community stadium in Mississauga. The CSL presently has teams playing out of nearby community stadiums Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke. Esther Shiner Stadium in North York and Birchmount Stadium in Scarborough.   There are three CSL teams located in Mississauga, one of which uses Centennial Stadium in nearby Etobicoke as its home ground.  There are also CSL teams in Toronto, Hamilton, Milton, Halton Region, Brantford, Waterloo, Scarborough and York Region

Mississauga councilor Dave Cook, who attended the Real Mississauga vs. Hamilton City CSL game on July 6, explained at that time: “Mississauga has approved$100,000 expenditure for a feasibility study to construct a soccer stadium and while previous discussions over the years did not come to fruition, this is a first step and it does look promising,” he said

CSL administrator Pino Jazbec said the possibility of a soccer stadium in Mississauga is an exciting prospect for his league. “Mississauga is a great soccer community with CSL teams based in the city and the consideration of an enclosed soccer stadium would encourage clubs to step up to this level,” he said.

Mississauga submitted a stadium design to the province as early as 1983 and the city considered building a soccer stadium for the 2015 Pan American Games, two of several attempts over the years.

SERBIAN WHITE EAGLES TRIUMPH 6-2 FRIDAY

 

 

Serbian White Eagles moved up to fourth in the standings with a decisive 6-2 victory over CSC Mississauga, the only match in the CSL First Division Friday.

It was a hard fought encounter from the opening whistle at Iceland Field in Mississauga, with visiting Serbian White Eagles, the CSL champions as recent as 2016 and a long history that included the National Soccer League title in 1974, against CSC Mississauga entering professional soccer as a CSL expansion team this year and attempting to open its account with a first win of the season.

It was the home side that came close first when at 20 minutes Mississauga’s Samyr Remi Oshin drive was saved by Serbian Eagles goalkeeper Nemanja Radenkovic, but the visitors took the lead four minutes later, a goal by Dusan Kovacevic, a thumping header that beat Mississauga goalkeeper Faris Efendic and it was 1-0 at the break.

Serbian White Eagles went up 2-0 at 48 minutes, a goal by defender Branislav Vukomanovic who broke down the left wing to shoot low and hard past the outstretched Efendic and midfielder Djorjije Strunjas increased the lead to 3-0 at 55 minutes, heading into the corner of the net.

Mississauga’s Oshin reduced the lead with a goal at 67 minutes, but a quick reply by Seungkwon Baik two minutes later gave Serbian White Eagles a 4-1 lead. Seungkwon added a second goal at 79 minutes for a commanding 5-1 Serbian Eagles advantage.

A high shot from 30 yards by Mississauga midfielder Danijel Ivanus dipped just under the bar for a 5-2 score at 86 minutes and Serbian Eagles responded with a goal at 90 minutes by Dusan Kovacevic, his second of the game for a 6-2 score at the final whistle.

Serbian White Eagles improve to 3-1-3 WLT FOR 12 points to move back to fourth position in the standings, while CSC Mississauga are at 0-6-2 for two points in eighth position.

DIMITROV GOAL GIVES SCARBOROUGH SUNDAY VICTORY

DIMITROV GOAL GIVES SCARBOROUGH SUNDAY VICTORY

Scarborough SC defeated CSC Mississauga by a 1-0 score at Birchmount Stadium in the only game played in the CSL First Division Sunday.
The game was a well played encounter, largely in the midfield with few scoring opportunities throughout.

Forward Kiril Dimitrov struck the winner for the home side, breaking through to face CSC Mississauga goalkeeper Faris Efendic in a one on one before slotting the ball into the net from 12 yards. The goal came at 60 minutes and was enough to give the east Toronto team the three points.
Mississauga had difficulty penetrating the Scarborough defence with John Trye in the Scarborough goal able to handle the few scoring opportunities that came his way.

Midfielder Odain Simpson was prominent for the home side.

The win gives Scarborough a 3-2-1WLT record for 10 points for a tie with second place FC Ukraine United in the standings, trailing league leaders FC Vorkuta by six points and one point ahead of now fourth place Serbian White Eagles.

Partnership with American Soccer League a Historic Occasion

TONY KOCIS
TONY KOCIS, SC WATERLOO PRESIDENT
TEN TEAMS WILL KICKOFF CSL SEASON MID-MAY…  Partnership with American Soccer League a historic occasion

Ten teams will kickoff a new First Division season and launch a new era in the Canadian Soccer League mid-May, a six-month schedule supplemented by cross-border games against teams in the soon-to-be launched American Soccer League playing out of the northeastern United States.

It will be a historic venture for the semi-professional CSL, which was originally launched as the National Soccer League in 1926 and re-branded through the years to become the CSL as we know it today. Now operating as a private league – which the league has elected to do on more than one occasion in its history – the CSL will have a working relationship with its U.S. counterpart to also include youth player development and marketing.

The ten teams to kickoff the CSL top division in the new season are Brampton City Utd, Burlington SC, London City, Kingston FC, Niagara United, North York Astros, SC Waterloo, Serbian White Eagles, Toronto Croatia and York Region Shooters. Teams for the CSL Second Division will be announced March 31.

SC Waterloo, which provides a much-needed professional soccer presence in the densely-populated youth soccer region that exists in the twin cities of Kitchener-Waterloo and the regional soccer community that reaches out to out as far as Cambridge, Guelph and Stratford, are the current CSL champions following a 3-1 victory over Kingston FC in the Championship Final November 3. The southwestern Ontario club also captured the Second Division title when their second string defeated Toronto Croatia Reserves on the same day, the first time a CSL club has taken both titles in the same season.

“It certainly was a great season when all of the hard work paid off and we want to build on our success and do even more to provide attractive soccer and help in player development throughout the region, all while the Canadian Soccer League continues to grow as a strong member of the Canadian soccer community,” said Tony Kocis, president of SC Waterloo.

SC Waterloo are scheduled for their opening home game at Warrior Field in Waterloo on Sunday, May 25, a day set by several clubs for their home opener. Serbian White Eagles will have Lamport Stadium in Toronto’s west-end as their home ground in 2014 and have scheduled their home opener for Saturday, May 31.

The complete 2014 CSL schedule will be released early April.

Toronto Croatia Wins A Squeaker

Toronto Croatia gained an important 1-0 victory over league-leading Kingston FC to remain unbeaten and nudge closer to the top of the CSL First Division, while St. Catharines Wolves picked up their second win of the season, a 2-0 defeat of Niagara United, two games in the CSL First Division Saturday.

Following a scoreless first half at the Queen’s West Field in Kingston, Toronto Croatia striker Tihomir Maletic struck the only goal at the 60th minute mark, a low drive past Kingston goalkeeper Jaroslav Tesar. The goal came following a close-call by Maletic four minutes earlier that was saved by Tesar who pushed the ball on to the crossbar for the save.

Kingston forward Guillaume Surot came close to equalizing late in the second half, but the 1-0 score held to the final whistle.

Two goals by St. Catharines Wolves forward Brett Laroque gave his side their first win since May 24 in the game with Niagara United at Kalar Park in Niagara Falls, the first goal coming at 42 minutes when Laroque beat Niagara goalkeeper John De Luca following a breakaway and it was 1-0 at the interval.

Laroque struck his second goal at 71 minutes for a 2-0 St. Catharines lead, the score at the final whistle.
