A second half hat-trick by Brampton City Utd striker Marcos Nunes lifted his side to a 3-1 away victory over St. Catharines Wolves at Club Roma in St. Catharines Wednesday night.

It was a second half blitz by the visitors to overcome a first half 1-0 deficit after Calvin Rosario of St. Catharines drove the ball into the net to the left of Brampton goalkeeper Camilo Benzi at the 26th minute mark, a score that held to the interval.

Brampton pressed for an equalizer early in the second half and at 52 minutes Nunes struck his first when he found the net from close range.

Nunes, 20, who plays also for Humber College and is considered one of the most promising young prospects in the region, beat St. Catharines ‘keeper Chris Kurdzeil at 84 minutes to put Brampton ahead 2-1 and he scored again five minutes later to complete the hat-trick. It was 3-1 at the final whistle in favour of the Toronto area team.

It was goals 7, 8 and 9 in the current campaign for Marcos Nunes to lift the Brampton native to second place in the CSL goalscoring race.

The win improves Brampton to a 5-1-0 WLT record for second place in the First Division standings, three points behind league leaders Kingston FC. It was the home opener for the Garden City team which now has a 1-2-0 record for three points and it was the first mid-week encounter in the 2013 season CSL schedule.
