Rocket Robin Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Result of the Sunday May 12, 2013 CSL game between Toronto Croatia and Kingston FC played at Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke at 8:00pm. 22 min...KFC Catalin Lichioiu GOAL...KFC Edgar Soglo sends pass from 22 yards in middle to right for Lichioiu to shoot 15 yarder from right into right side of net beyond goalie Antonio Ilic. 28 min...TC Roberto Galle GOAL...TC Boris Tomac from 25 yards on right rolls centering pass to TC Tihomir Maletic who spins when covered by defender and rolls ball to left where charging Galle boots 20 yarder over sprawling goalie Jaroslav Tesar to right side of net. 40 min...TC Tihomir Maletic GOAL...TC Petar Mingon sends high ball up middle from 60 yards and Maletic and defender and goalie get to ball at the same time at 30 yards.

Final Score:....Toronto Croatia......3.....Kingston FC......2.... Attendance was about 30 on this brutally cold and extremely windy night. Comparisons were made to last year's CSL Final game played at this stadium except that there was no rain during the game. There were three or four showers earlier in the day followed by periods of sunshine. [i'll go with the bad weather over other reasons--Mother's Day, Maple Leafs hockey playoff game, CSL only being able to announce their schedule two weeks ago]. Referee Yusri Rudolph gave out two Yellow cards in the game that counted--both to Croatia players and both for fouls on KFC Edgar Soglo. This drew some hecklers to make loud crying sounds whenever after Soglo got the ball. Biggest controversy in the game though was when at 63 minutes Rudolph initially signalled a third goal for Tihomir Maletic but was waved over by one of the referee's assistants and cancelled the goal on a hand ball. Maletic had run towards the net to deflect a cross at the one yard line and the way he twisted his body the ball hit him just above the elbow. Other good scoring chances were at 12 minutes when TC Maletic flicked an 8 yard header from the left that the diving goalie pushed wide right for a cornerkick. 38 minutes had Maletic take a cornerkick from the right that had a TC player get away a low flying header from 7 yards on the left that a defender blocked at 2 yards. 45 minutes had Maletic cross from the right that TC Josip Keran booted a 3 yarder from the left post that the goalie deflected wide left. 78 minutes had Maletic step through two defenders up the middle and shoot an 18 yarder just wide right of the post. 84 minutes had TC Ainsley Deer cutting in from the left parallel to the 20 yard line and cut a shot just over the bar. 91 minutes had KFC Jason Massie shoot a low 18 yard shot off the left post and a defender booted the rebound for a cornerkick. Croatia played well throughout the game--whereas I thought KFC fortunes might change when they changed ends at halftime. Many KFC longball passes in the second half just bounced out of play or to the goalie. The 63 minute no-goal ruling made the game a nailbiter to the 94 minute ending time. The Croatia lineup is almost unchanged from last year's except that leading scorer (with 16 goals) Marin Vucemilovic-Grgic was sold to London City. Management has signed four new players from Croatia (the country) and they may make their appearance as soon as next week. Only player I noticed that wasn't on the TC roster last year was winger Roberto Galle who played for TFC Academy last year. Tonight his speed and crosses were excellent. This was the opening game for Toronto Croatia, the two time CSL defending champions. Kingston FC had won the only game played last weekend to be the early leader in ths standings.
