It was Surot’s 24th goal of the season and it was 1-0 at the break.

BURLINGTON SQUEAK THROUGH 4-3 FRIDAY

by
With its last game of the regular season coming up on September 20, London City will have to wait for the outcome of other late season games to determine if the side from southwestern Ontario has a berth in the championship playoffs following a 4-3 home defeat in the hands of Burlington SC Friday.
It was a ding-dong struggle at the Hellenic Centre in London with the outcome in doubt until the final whistle and the defeat left the home side needing more points than is available in their regular season finale to be sure of a playoff spot.
The prolific Marin Vucemilovic Grgic had London off to a flying start with two goals, the first at 16 minutes and another seven minutes later for a 2-0 lead, but that was cut to 2-1 when Burlington defender Nikola Stanojevic scored from the penalty spot at 45 minutes, the penalty awarded by referee Justin Tasev following a foul in the box. It was 2-1 at half-time.
The goals by Vucemilovic-Grgic were his 15th and 16th of the season and he leaps into second position in the goalscoring chart.
Stanojevic scored a second goal from the spot, awarded for a hand ball infringement for a 2-2 tie at 71 minutes.
Burlington went ahead 3-2 at the 73rd minute mark, a goal by Nenad Nikolic who found the net past London goalkeeper Corey Laureano, but it took less than two minutes for London to tie the score 3-3 when forward Robert Mutambala put the ball past Burlington goalkeeper Vladimir Vujasinovic.
Midfielder Nicholas Lindsay struck the winner for Burlington at 75 minutes, his 9th of the season.
The win gives Burlington SC an improved 6-11-0 WLT for 18 points and now tied for 8th position in the table, while London City have a 7-11-3 for 24 points in seventh position.

KINGSTON RETURNS FOR PUSH TO FIRST DIVISION TITLE…..playoff details released

by
High flying Kingston FC will be looking to maintain their three-point margin at the top of the CSL First Division when they meet SC Waterloo this coming Sunday following a successful excursion last Sunday to the University of Ottawa for a friendly encounter with the Montreal Impact Academy. The CSL league leaders came away with a 1-0 victory in that game and now return to the business of the First Division title with five games remaining in their regular season schedule prior to the CSL Championship playoffs in October.
The Brampton City Utd vs. Toronto Croatia match at Victoria Park in Brampton this Saturday gives the home side an opportunity to make amends for two home defeats in a week.

The CSL playoffs in both divisions will get underway with the quarterfinals the weekend October 11 – 13, with the top eight teams qualifying for the post-regular season competition. The top four teams will have home advantage and will retain home advantage for the semifinals the weekend of October 18 – 20.

ASTROS VASAS UPSETS BRAMPTON 2-1 SUNDAY ….lightning forces cancellation Waterloo vs York Region

by

Astros Vasas FC upset Brampton City Utd with a well-deserved 2-1 away victory, while a second game scheduled in the CSL First Division Sunday, SC Waterloo vs York Region Shooters, was called off shortly before kickoff time due to lightning.

 Brampton City Utd pressed early to keep up their strong bid for the CSL First Division title, but it was Astros Vasas that struck first with a goal by recently acquired midfielder Erik Luptak at 37 minutes when he picked up the ball outside the 6-yard line to drive into the net to the right of Brampton goalkeeper Camilo Benzi. The goal held up for a 1-0 score at the interval.

Brampton midfielder Thomas McLean equalized at the 64th minute mark with a drive from just outside of the penalty box that left Astros Vasas goalkeeper Matt George with little chance when it hit the top right corner of the net.

Brampton lost defender Mirko Medic at 83 minutes, he was sent off  after receiving a second caution from referee Steve Depiero and two minutes later Jose Melo struck the winner for visitors when he beat Benzi from five yards for a 2-1 Astros Vasas victory.

Brampton’s Thomas McLean was also shown the red card just before the final whistle.

It was the fifth victory for Astros Vasas and the win improved their chance of a playoff spot as they moved into eighth  position in the standings with a 5-10-2 WLT for 17 points, while the defeat was a set-back for Brampton despite their impressive 12-4-0 record in second place in the standings, and the defeat is the first since July 28.

One other First Division game scheduled for Sunday, the SC Waterloo vs York Region Shooters clash, was called off by referee Scott Decker due to persistent lightning in the area – the game will be rescheduled – and there was one Second Division match Sunday when St. Catharines Wolves B defeated Toronto Croatia B by a score of 4-1.

LATE GOALS GIVE WINDSOR STARS VICTORY SATURDAY

by

A last minute winner by David Kadoic gave Windsor Stars a 3-2 victory over Niagara United and a much improved chance of a playoff berth in the only game played in the Canadian Soccer League First Division Saturday.

It was Kadoic’s second goal of the match and his fifth of the season and the goals came late when Niagara were leading 2-1 in a game played at a newly constructed soccer complex at Harrow in southwestern Ontario, billed as the feature event in an international tournament and annual Harrow Fair.

Midfielder Ciprian Codea opened the scoring for Windsor Stars at the 22nd minute, he found the net past Niagara goalkeeper Brad Gemmell for a 1-0 lead at the break.

Kevin Lake tied the game 1-1 for Niagara United at 49 minutes and Keith Makubuya put the visiting Niagara side 2-1 up when he found the net past Windsor goalkeeper Anthony Santilli at the 67th minute mark.

Kadoic scored from the penalty spot for his first goal, a penalty called by referee Lucian Burlacu following a foul in the box at 76 minutes for a 2-2 tie, and the Windsor midfielder struck the winner with a well-placed drive from 15 yards that caught the left side of the net, the goal coming at the 90th minute mark.

“We will take the three points, but it wasn’t one of our better efforts,” said Windsor head coach Steve Vagnini following the final whistle.

The three points now means a total of 24 on the season for Windsor Stars, from a 7-6-3 WLT record for fifth place in the standings, while Niagara United are at 2-12-3 for nine points.
