He took a pass from forward Tihomir Maletic while closing in and it turned out to be a tap in for the go-ahead goal.


 


SC Toronto were reduced to 10 men at a crucial time of 87 minutes when Garard Ladiyou was cautioned for a second time to be shown the red card and sent off.


 


Despite the disadvantage, the visitors fought back and were rewarded with a tying goal by forward Alon Badat who scored at 93 minutes after receiving a cross from the left wing.

North York were reduced to 10 men when referee Scott Decker showed the red card to Davier Walcott at 72 minutes for serious foul play and the remainder of the game was scoreless to the final whistle, 2-1 in favour of Kingston FC.


 


A goal at 63 minutes by Brantford Galaxy midfielder Damion Scott was enough to earn his side three points in the game against Windsor Stars at Lions Park. Scott took a pass from Marco Machado to drive the ball from 20 yards into the bottom left corner past Windsor goalkeeper Anthony Santilli.


The goal broke open a game with few chances throughout, with Santilli and Galaxy’s Melford James Jr. both playing a solid game.

It was a ding-dong struggle between York Region Shooters and Brampton City Utd at the Joan of Arc ground in Maple where the visitors gained then lost the lead throughout the game, beginning with a goal at 23 minutes when forward Milos Scepanovic beat York Region goalkeeper Camilo Benzi for a 1-0 score. Alex Braletic made it 2-0 for Brampton at 37 minutes, but the lead was cancelled out by goals from York Region forward Jason De Thomasis at 38 minutes, then Alex Trujillo at 44 minutes for a 2-2 tie before York Region’s Andre Rollins put the home side ahead 3-2 at the break.

 

Scepanovic scored his second goal and Brampton’s third to tie the game 3-3 at 85 minutes, then Brampton edged into the lead 4-3 on a goal by David Velastagui three minutes later.  Andre Manders of York Region levelled the scores 4-4 shortly before the final whistle.

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

by

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.


 


Dave Simpson scored twice for the visitors in the second half, at 59 and 62 minutes for a 5-1 lead, Shepherd added his second goal and Galaxy’s sixth at 69 minutes and Braeden Krampert hit the seventh for a 7-1 final score.


 


 


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.

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.

MALETIC HITS LATE WINNER FOR TORONTO CROATIA….SC Toronto and TFC Academy battle to scoreless tie, both games Friday night

by

Prolific striker Tihomir Maletic struck a late winner to give his team a 3-2 victory over Mississauga Eagles FC at the Hershey Centre and in one other game played in the CSL Friday night, SC Toronto and TFC Academy battled to a scoreless tie at Lamport Stadium in downtown Toronto.

 

Maletic drove the ball from 20 yards to beat Mississauga goalkeeper Matthew George at the 82nd minute mark, the goal coming following a 2-2 score in a game that could have gone either way. Each time the current CSL champions went ahead, Mississauga came back to tie the game.

 

Toronto Croatia took the lead on a goal by midfielder Andelo Srzentic at 12 minutes. Srzentic tapped in a rebound from a missed penalty kick to give the visitors the 1-0 lead, but it took just three minutes for Mississauga’s Jose De Sousa to tie the game 1-1.

 

Midfielder Hayden Fitzwilliams put Croatia in front 2-1 when he headed the ball into the net from a free kick at 17 minutes and Eagles’ defender Shaun McDonald equalized 2-2 at 26 minutes, heading in off a corner kick  past Croatia goalkeeper Panagiotis Koumoulas.

 

There was little to choose between the two teams in the scoreless tie at Lamport Stadium, with most of the game played in the midfield and few scoring opportunities in an encounter that allowed SC Toronto to maintain their unbeaten early season record.

 

TFC goalkeeper Angelo Cavalluzzo was called upon to make saves near the half-way mark and SC Toronto ‘keeper Scott Cliff played a solid game for the home side.

KINGSTON NOTCH FIRST VICTORY, TFC AND TORONTO CROATIA DOMINATE…the Astros and Shooters play to scoreless tie

by

Kingston FC gained their first victory in the CSL First Division in a close encounter at Brampton, North York Astros and York Region Shooters played to a scoreless tie, while TFC Academy and Toronto Croatia both scored decisive wins, four games in the CSL Sunday.

 

It was an end-to-end encounter at Victoria Park in Brampton where Kingston FC took the lead from the penalty spot over Brampton City Utd at 28 minutes following a shirt-pulling incident inside the box. Forward Antonios Assaad fired into the net past Brampton goalkeeper Jason Lopes.

 

Brampton midfielder David Velastagui put the home side on equal terms at 55 minutes, but Kingston regained the lead just one minute later when Assaad scored his second for a 2-1 score.

 

Following good play by both sides, Mademba Ba struck a third Kingston goal at 86 minutes for a 3-1 lead by the visitors and three minutes later Brampton’s David Guzman reduced the lead to 3-2 from the penalty spot following a foul inside the 18 yard line. The game ended 3-2.

 

In the game at Downsview Park, TFC Academy midfielder Mario Orestano opened the scoring at the 27th minute mark against a depleted London City side missing key players on their injured list – he found the net past London ‘keeper Zoran Pusica.

 

TFC defender Deon Rose made it 2-0 six minutes later and three minutes later at the 36th minute mark, Toronto midfielder Omari Morris increased the lead to 3-0.

 

TFC’s Ryan James made it 4-0 at 66 minutes, and the home side’s Marko Miketic increased the lead to 5-0 at 72 minutes.

 

Miketic scored his second and the academy team’s sixth goal at 86 minutes, he put the ball past London’s substitute goalkeeper Scott Chalmers and it remained 6-0 to the final whistle.

 

Toronto Croatia dominated in almost every department as the game wore on against SC Waterloo at Centennial Stadium in Toronto’s west-end and it started when midfielder Hayden Fitzwilliams scored for the home side after 18 minutes to make it 1-0.

 

SC Waterloo drew level just one minute later, a goal by forward Shawn Brown, but at 26 minutes Croatia’s Tihomir Maletic struck from the penalty spot after being brought down in the box.

Josip Keran increased the lead to 3-1 for Toronto Croatia at 34 minutes, the score at half-time after Drazen Vukovic missed a penalty kick for SC

Waterloo.

 

Toronto Croatia midfielder Marin Vucemilovic Grgic then struck twice, the first at 72 minutes and again six minutes later for a 5-1 home lead and Maletic rounded out the scoring at 80 minutes, a 6-1 final.

 

It was a well-played scoreless encounter at Esther Shiner Stadium in North York where the Astros and York Region Shooters both came close to scoring despite a game played mostly in midfield.

 

North York goalkeeper Antal Toth made key saves late in the game and the game ended 0-0.

 

There was one game in the CSL Second Division Sunday when Brampton City Utd B defeated Kingston FC B by a score of 13-0.
