VLADIMIR VUJOVIC HAT-TRICK LEADS BURLINGTON TO A 5-0 VICTORY….heavy rains cut schedule

Burlington-SC

Burlington SC crushed Brampton City Utd with five goals before the interval, three by Burlington forward Vladimir Vujovic, for a 5-0 victory at Nelson Stadium, the only game played in the Canadian Soccer League First Division Sunday night.

There were two additional games scheduled and both were postponed. The London City vs Milton SC at the Hellenic Stadium in London where the playing surface was waterlogged, and a weather-related power outage at the SC Waterloo vs Scarborough SC game at Warrior Field in Waterloo  caused the second game to be called off during the afternoon.

Vujovic opened the scoring for Burlington at the 20 minute mark when he found the net from 20 yards past Brampton goalkeeper Cristian Montero-Valez and Burlington forward Nenad Simic made it 2-0 at 27 minutes.

The home side went ahead 3-0 at 33 minutes with a second goal by Vujovic,  and Vujovic completed a hat-trick from a corner kick, a 4-0 score at the 43 minute mark.

Midfielder Nicolas Mejia increased the Burlington lead to 5-0 at the 44 minute mark, the score at the break.

It was a scoreless second half with Burlington in control of the play, and Burlington missed two penalties – one in the first half at 22 minutes when referee Davor Kravic pointed to the spot following a foul inside the box and again in the second half at 63 minutes following a hand ball.

The game ended 5-0 in favour of Burlington SC.

There were two games in the CSL Second Division, Toronto Atomic FC B defeated Toronto Croatia B, 2-1, and Milton SC B played SC Waterloo B to a 1-1 tie.
