Two first half goals by midfielder Cristian Dragoi moved Windsor Stars to their first win of the new season, opening their account with a 4-1 defeat of Astros Vasas FC at Windsor Stadium, the only game in the Canadian Soccer League First Division Saturday.
Dragoi opened the scoring for the home side at 22 minutes with a hard low drive that beat Astros Vasas goalkeeper Erno Bostyan and Windsor hit again with two goals in quick succession. The first by David Kadoic – he headed into the net at 25 minutes – and immediately after the re-start Drogoi struck his second of the night to make it 3-0 at the
interval.
Astros Vasas reduced the lead in the second half when Jose Melo scored on a penalty after referee Hassane Rifai pointed to the spot when a visitors’ forward was brought down inside the 18 yard line, the goal coming at the 58th minute mark and it was 3-1 in favour of Windsor.
Windsor Stars increased the lead to 4-1 on a goal by Adam Philp who drove the ball into the net at the 87th minute mark and the score held to the final whistle.
