A short-handed North York Astros survived a second half send-off to defeat St. Catharines Wolves by a decisive 3-0 score at Club Roma in St. Catharines, the only game played in the Canadian Soccer League Wednesday night.

Seven minutes later, Astros’ midfielder Allan Fernando Cordon was handed a second caution and red card by referee Armando Pereira following an untidy challenge, but while playing short-handed the visitors pressed and increased their lead when forward Sean Beck came off the bench to find the net from 15 yards, a 2-0 score at 83 minutes.


 


St. Catharines came close to narrowing the score, with forward Abu Kamara being the most prominent, but it was North York that found the net in the closing minutes when Beck struck his second from a breakaway to score at the 88th minute mark.


 


The Astros exchange the bottom position with St. Catharines as a result of the victory with the Garden City side now at the foot of the table with a 1-11-1 WLT record for 4 points, while North York Astros improve to 2-12-1 for 7 points and 15th in the standings.

SC WATERLOO COLLAPSE UNDER A 7-1 ROUT BY BRANTFORD GALAXY SUNDAY….. Shooters defeat Windsor Stars, TFC blank Astros, while Toronto Croatia with Serbian Eagles and Brampton vs. London both end in ties

SC Waterloo managed to pull back a 2-0 first half deficit to trail 2-1 late in the first half, then collapsed under a five goal scoring spree by Brantford Galaxy to go down 7-1 at their home ground Seagram Stadium in Waterloo.


 


Galaxy forward Jeremy Shepherd opened the scoring at 23 minutes, Christopher Leko made in 2-0 at 34 minutes, Waterloo midfielder Harris Fazlagic cut the lead to 2-1 at 35 minutes and Leko made it 3-1 for Brantford at 39 minutes, the score at half-time.

Ryan James opened the scoring for TFC Academy at the 15th minute mark at Esther Shiner Stadium in North York, he drove a low shot from 15 yards to beat North York Astros goalkeeper Enea Perego.  Sergo Camargo then made it 2-0 at 36 minutes.


 


TFC were reduced to 10 men when at 75 minutes referee Hassan Rifai showed the red card to Christopher Mennella for ‘serious foul play’ following a dangerous tackle.


 


The Astros pressed during the second half, but were unable to find the net and it was 2-0 when time ran out with the North York side still winless following their sixth game of the campaign.


 


York Region Shooters were full value for their 2-1 away victory at Windsor Stadium, they took a 2-0 lead at half-time on goals by Chris Thomas at the half-hour mark and Matthew O’Connor seven minutes later.


 


Referee Arthur Kobiel dismissed O’Connor and Stephen Ademolu of Windsor Stars at 45 minutes, both players shown the red card following an altercation.


 


Windsor reduced the lead at the 70th minute mark on a goal by Joel Kabula, but the home side failed to find the net in the late stages and the game ended 2-1 in favour of York Region.


 


Forward Dalibor Mitrovic opened the scoring for London City  at the 10th minute mark at Victoria Park in Brampton and Milos Scepanovic tied it up at the 25th minute for Brampton City Utd,  a 1-1 tie at the interval.


 


Jasmin Yas Halkic struck for the visitors at 56 minutes, but Brampton’s David Velastagui tied the score 2-2 at 68 minutes.


 


Mitrovic scored his second goal to give London City a 3-2 lead at 76 minutes, a goal that looked like the winner until Brampton midfielder David Guzman scored off a free kick just before the final whistle to tie the game, 2-2. Guzman drive was low from inside the box to beat London goalkeeper Vladimir Markotic.


 


The Toronto Croatia vs. Serbian White Eagles clash at Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke failed to produce any goals, leaving both teams still undefeated.


 


There was good midfield play throughout and Antonio Ilic in goal for the current CSL champions and Serbian Eagles goalkeeper Milos Dirkovic both looked sound to preserve a scoreless tie.


 


Toronto Croatia remain on top of the First Division standings with a 5-0-2 WLT record for 17 points, while Serbian White Eagles move up to second position with a 4-0-2 record for 14 points.

SERBIAN EAGLES CONVINCING IN HOME OPENER … A decided edge in 3-0 victory over Astros Vasas Friday

Serbian White Eagles opened the season with a convincing 3-0 win over Astros Vasas FC at Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke, the only game in the Canadian Soccer League Friday night.

Serbian Eagles had a slight edge in play in the early going and took the lead after 21 minutes following a good passing play entering the Astros Vasas penalty box following a free kick. Midfielder Kiril Dimitrov moved the ball to Ivan Stankovic who touched it to Djorjije Strunjas to slot the ball just inside the left post. It was 1-0 at the break.

Ten minutes into the second half Astros Vasas had their first real attempt at scoring when Koroly Csak drove the ball from 16 yards just over the top right corner of the net out of reach of Serbian Eagles’ goalkeeper Stefan Avramovic.

The home side increased their lead at 74 minutes when Stankovic found the top left corner of the net from 15 yards past Astros Vasas goalkeeper Antal-Andras Toth, the goal coming off a right wing cross by Dimitrov.

Serbian White Eagles took a 3-0 lead at the 82nd minute mark on a goal by Dimitrov when he collected a rebound off the crossbar from a shot by Stankovic just inside the box. The score held to the final whistle.

Serbian Eagles’ coach Uros Stamatovic was pleased with his team’s performance for the opening game: “We are developing a number of young players and I’m satisfied with their performance with the win tonight – they did a lot of things right and they know when they play that well they will enjoy the experience,” he said.

Serbian Eagles are looking to improve last season’s sixth place in the 16-team CSL First Division and will be at home on May 24 to St. Catharines Roma Wolves, a 9 pm kickoff at Centennial Stadium.

It was the second defeat for Astros Vasas FC in the new season following a 1-0 loss to York Region Shooters on May 12. “But it will take a few games,” said Laszlo Deak, assistant GM and president of the Toronto Vasas, a branch of the Budapest-based organization, who was instrumental in the merger with North York Astros to form Astros Vasas FC to kickoff the 2013 CSL season.

Astros Vasas FC will play their home opener against Kingston FC at Esther Shiner Stadium on May 26, that’s a 4.30 pm start.

Midfielder Christian Mayorga opened the scoring for Windsor at the 11th minute mark in the game at Windsor Stadium, finding the net out of the reach of Mississauga goalkeeper James Melford Jr.


 


Tristan Watson tied the score for Mississauga at 24 minutes and forward Jose Melo beat Windsor goalkeeper Anthony Santilli to give the visitors the lead at the 46th minute mark, a 2-1 score that held to the final whistle.


 


Windsor Stars were reduced to 10 men when referee Yusri Rudolf showed a red card to Emillio Georgi following a second caution at 90 minutes.


 


It was Mississauga Eagles’ ninth win of the season which keeps the first year team in 7th position in the standings with 28 points.


 


It was a close encounter throughout at Lions Park in Brantford when North York Astros were the visitors.


 


There were few scoring opportunities, but two Brantford Galaxy players were ejected by referee Richard Oliveira who brought out the red card first of all for Dalibor Mitrovic who was sent off after just 15 minutes for Violent Conduct and at 80 minutes defender Zvonko Bakula was ordered off for Serious Foul Play.

VICIKNEZ SIZZLER SINKS ASTROS

A late goal gave Serbian White Eagles a 1-0 victory over the hapless North York Astros in the only game played in the CSL Friday night, while at London the game with Windsor Stars was postponed due to the condition of the playing surface at Cove Road following heavy rain the previous night.


 


The patented free kick for which Serbian Eagles forward Sasa Viciknez has become known – from just outside the penalty box and a little to the side – was the highlight of an entertaining tussle between the home side attempting to recover from two losses the previous weekend at Montreal and Ottawa and the Astros still bidding for their opening win of the season.


 


While Serbian Eagles had more opportunities to put the ball in the net, Astros played well enough for periods during which it was difficult to comprehend  the North York side had failed to win in 12 attempts since starting the campaign so promisingly with an impressive 2-2 away tie in their opener on May 21.


 


Heading for another tie, the Astros suffered that sinking feeling yet again shortly after their defender Diego Benzi upended Viciknez just outside the box and referee Facchini gave the free kick and a yellow card to Benzi.


 


Viciknez, at one time a top flight player in Europe, struck a sizzling left footer into the roof of the net well out of reach of Astros’ goalkeeper Enea Perego and that goal proved to be the winner at the 78th minute mark.


 


Serbian Eagles had a goal disallowed during the first half and late in the game Benzi received a second yellow card for using his hand on the ball while going up for a header and was dismissed.


 


One other game scheduled for Friday night, the London City vs. Windsor Stars southwestern Ontario derby, was postponed due to ground conditions and will be rescheduled and a Second Division game between London City B and Brantford Galaxy B, was also called off.

St. Catharines Wolves’ player-coach Carlo Arghittu scored the lone goal for the visitors at 65 minutes after coming on as a substitute.

 

It was a crushing blow for North York Astros at Lamport Stadium when after leading 1-0 for most of the game following a gritty and determined effort to win their first game of the campaign, TFC Academy tied the score with just seconds remaining. The tying goal came from a thumping header inside the box by league-leading scorer Stefan Vukovic, his 10th goal of the season.

 

The Astros opened the scoring, a goal by forward Nordo Gooden at 24 minutes for a 1-0 lead at half-time. Both sides came close to scoring as the game moved through the second half and there were spectacular saves by North York goalkeeper Enea Perego who helped maintain the lead until Vukovic’s goal in the 94th minute.

 

London City suffered a similar fate on their home ground at Cove Road when after leading 1-0  against the league leaders Montreal Impact Academy on a goal at 52 minutes by Michael Marcoccia. The goal came  followed a  scoreless first half  during which London’s Younan Samra drove a shot on the underside of the crossbar at 39 minutes, but the ball stayed out.
