SC TORONTO MARCHES ON AT THE TOP – Capital City FC wins while Montreal vs Serbian Eagles tie.

by

SC Toronto widened the gap at the top of the First Division with a 2-1 victory over Mississauga Eagles while Capital City FC defeated London City 5-1 and Montreal Impact Academy were held to a 2-2 tie by Serbian White Eagles, three games in the CSL Friday night.


 


SC Toronto made it clear they are going to be tough to dislodge from the top of the First Division after taking all three points in the game with Mississauga Eagles played at Lamport Stadium in Toronto’s west end.


 


 The Toronto side took the lead during a close, well played first half and it was forward Andrea Lombardo who found the net at the 18th minute when he picked up a well placed through ball to the right of the Mississauga goal and carefully slotted it just inside the far post.


 


Mississauga Eagles’ forward Shawn Brown scored the equalizer at the 25th minute mark when he drove the ball into the net from close range past Scott Cliff in the SC Toronto goal. It was 1-1 at half-time.


 


SC Toronto defender Gerard Ladiyou scored the winner for the home side, the goal coming off a corner kick at the 61 minute mark.


 


Both sides had opportunities to score in the latter stages, but none more than Mississauga’s Dave Simpson who volleyed the ball over the crossbar with only the goalkeeper to best from 8 yards. It was 2-1 at the final whistle.


 


Capital City FC continued their impressive bid for First Division honours and they took the lead at the 26th minute mark at Cove Road in London, a goal by forward Junior Ellis who found the net from 6 yards.


 


Akil DeFreitas made it 2-0 for the visitors when he scored from the penalty spot at 30 minutes, Kenny Caceros increased the lead to 3-0 four minutes later and midfielder Collin Harrison scored a fourth for the Ottawa team, a 4-0 score at the break.


 


Capital City forward Garrett Webb increased the lead to 5-0 at 46 minutes and Younan Samra struck from the penalty spot for a London City goal at 64 minutes, a 5-1 final score.


 


 Montreal Impact Academy is a top contender for league honours and they played to a 2-2 with Serbian White Eagles who are on the fringes and need points for a higher placing.


 


Montreal took the lead on a goal by midfielder Wandrille Lefevre who found the net after 10 minutes, but Serbian Eagles’ forward Alex Braletic tied the game 1-1 at 38 minutes following some good play by Milos Scepanovic.


 


Braletic put his side into a 2-1 lead with a goal at 50 minutes, his seventh of the season, and following missed opportunities by the home side, Montreal Impact Academy tied the game on a goal by defender Maxim Tissot at 67 minutes and the game ended 2-2.

VICIKNEZ SIZZLER SINKS ASTROS

by

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.


 


Remaining games to be played the holiday weekend are:

by

Capital City FC  stretched their unbeaten string to 11 games with a scoreless tie against York Region Shooters, while in one other game played in the CSL Sunday, seven goals were scored in the second half when Brantford Galaxy defeated St. Catharines Wolves, 5-3. A third game, Toronto Croatia vs. TFC Academy was postponed at the ground.


 


It was an even, well-played contest between two teams bidding for the top position in the standings, but a temperature of 36 degrees at ground level may have played a part in a limp performance by both sides in front of goal at the St. Joan of Arc ground in Maple.


 


The scoreless tie between York Region Shooters and Capital City means the Shooters trail league-leading Montreal Impact Academy by one point and the Ottawa team is one point behind York Region. Capital City FC, with 12 games played, have two games in hand over the top two.

The Garden City side went ahead 2-0 at 50 minutes on a goal by Matthew Cain, but Brantford reduced the lead at the 63rd minute mark when Dalibor Mitrovic collected a clearance from his goalkeeper Markotic to score from 25 yards.


 


Brantford forward Ranko Golijanin evened the score at 2-2 just three minutes later and at 73 minutes referee Sylviu Petrescu pointed to the penalty spot when Golijanin was tripped in the box and Rade Novkovic found the net past Wolves’ goalkeeper Claudio Perri, a 3-2 Brantford lead.


 


Brantford’s Mitrovic scored his second goal when he picked up a rebound from an attempt by Nenad Begovic for a 4-2 score at 75 minutes.


 


St. Catharines struck their third goal at 88 minutes by midfielder Nicks Kinsi to make it 4-3 in favour of the home side and Brantford went further ahead on a goal by Stefan Dancetovic for a 5-3 score at the final whistle.


 


One other game scheduled for Sunday afternoon, Toronto Croatia vs. TFC Academy, was postponed and will be rescheduled.

The move paid off as Irwin’s diving header from 10 yards flew into the home net to make the score 2-2 and that was the score at the final whistle.


 


Montreal Impact Academy’s 10-game unbeaten run ended at Victoria Park in Brampton where the Quebec side ran into a buzz saw Brampton City Utd  for a 4-0 result which means the league-leading team ended its swing into Ontario with just one point following the 1-1 tie with London City Friday night.
