CSL 2013--Week 10


Recommended Posts

Result and details of the Friday July 5th, 2013 CSL game between

Serbian White Eagles and York Region Shooters played at Centennial

Stadium in Etobicoke at 9:00pm.

21 min...YRS Richard West GOAL...YRS Francisco Javier Perez from

40 yards rolls pass up middle and West on right takes low 12 yard

shot into left corner of net with goalie Stefan Avramovic guarding

middle of net.

39 min...SWE Daniel Chamale draws Penalty kick when tripped up

after SWE Djorjije Strunjas passes ball from right and low 22 yard

shot up middle was blocked by YRS Tristan Jackman but not cleared

from 8 yards and Chamale is tripped on right edge of 6 yard box.

Referee Jeff Fearnall pointed to the spot.

40 min...SWE Ramon Bailey GOAL...Bailey rolls Penalty kick into

right corner of net as goalie Adrian Ibanez dives left.

46 min...YRS Matthew Rios GOAL...Rios is tapped pass by YRS Darryl

Gomez from left and he blasts 12 yard shot into right side of net.

Final Score:....Serbian White Eagles.......1.......

York Region Shooters.............2..........

Attendance was about 100 on this hot and humid night with the

setting sun not a factor in the opening minutes.

Referee Jeff Fearnall gave out one Yellow card to each team

that I counted on what wasn't a rough game although there

were a few injuries.

Shooters had more of the possession in this game and the more

dangerous shots. They limited the SWE shots and broke up a

lot of passes by stepping in front of them as SWE players

waited for the ball to roll to them. shooters never seemed to

take anything but short cornerkicks and quickly too but couldn't

catch SWE off guard.

Richard West played for Serbian White Eagles last year and led

the team with 15 goals. Today he was up front with Shooters

teammates Ali Hamam and Matthew Rios. Francisco Javier Perez

who is new to this year's team was feeding them passes from

the midfield.

Best non-scoring chances of the game were at 16 minutes when

SWE Ramon Bailey took a 28 yard freekick from the right that had

SWE Goran Vlaski tip a 15 yard shot just wide right of the net.

58 minutes had YRS Nicolas Martinez take a 20 yard shot that hit

the football bar just a foot above the soccer bar. 78 minutes

had YRS West steal a ball off a defender at 30 yards and run

up the middle and in alone shot just wide left of the post

from 15 yards. 81 minutes had YRS West given a through pass

on his own side of center and he rushed to 15 yards and shot

and the goalie saved it with his face taking the brunt to

block it.

White Eagles record falls to 2 wins, 5 losses, 1 tie while

Shooters improve to 5 wins, 2 losses, 1 tie. Both teams

have games on Sunday with White Eagles travelling across

town to play Astros Vasas and Shooters hosting Windsor.

A shuffle in the start times means it may be possible

for me to see both games.

Results and details of the Sunday July 7, 2013 CSL

game between Astros Vasas FC and Serbian White Eagles

played at Esther Shiner Stadium in North York at

4:30pm.

54 min...Astros Joey Melo GOAL...Melo passes forward to

AV Tristan Watson who shoots from 15 yards on left and hits

the right goalpost. The ball deflects back into the box and

Melo shoots 8 yarder into middle of net beyond goalie

Goran Velimirovic.

93 min...SWE RED card...Vitomar Jelic earns a direct

ejection for holding on to charging Tristan Watson on

his run from 50 to 30 yards pulling on his jersey and

jostling him the entire way. Referee Justin Tasev

signalled to play advantage but when Watson was finally

knocked over, Jelic was sent off as the last defender

back.

Final Score:...Astros Vasas FC.......1...........

Serbian White Eagles..........0...........

Attendance was about 30 on this hot, humid, and

overcast afternoon. It had rained in the afternoon then

rained hard from the 7 minute mark stopped then rained

hard again at the 40 minute and 77 minute mark.

I didn't notice when it slowed down enough that I could

notice the times when it started pouring again.

Referee Justin Tasev gave out only one Yellow card to

each team that I counted at 87 and 91 minutes and then

the Red card at 93 in a game that wasn't rough.

Astros Vasas played their first game in their new

all red kits with gold numbers. This makes them

look exactly like the Vasas team in Hungary. There'd

been a long delay for the equipment to arrive. I'd say

the difference between Astros and White Eagles

when they played May 17th in Etobicoke (the only other

game I'd seen Astros in so far this year) was the

addition of players Joey Melo and Tristan Watson.

Joey Melo played for Mississauga Eagles in the CSL for

the last few years (and on MLS Toronto FC during 2007

and 2008). Watson is from Brampton and stands 6'4".

SWE won their previous meeting 3-0.

Astros had been shutout in their previous three games.

Today's win (at the time this game ended) slingshots

them from 12th (last) to a tie for 8th (the last

playoff spot) with White Eagles. There's four good

teams creating a gap between themselves and the rest

of the pack.

Best non-scoring chances were at 9 minutes when AV Joey

Melo rolled a pass forward from 15 yards and AV Jose Ludelino

Goncalves De Sousa shot wide left from 5 yards.

35 minutes had AV De Sousa take a cornerkick from the right

that the charging AV Melo was not able to fully connect on

a diving header and it went wide left of the post from 6 yards.

42 minutes had AV Kevin Dhillon blast a 35 yard shot down

the middle that the flying goalie punched forward. An AV

player got to the rebound and was called offside. 48

minutes had SWE Djorjije Strunjas's 40 yard freekick from

the right just be over the head of a leaping SWE Milan Beader

at 15 yards and the ball continued wide left of goal.

50 minutes had SWE Habib Bundu's low 25 yard cross get

SWE Nilola Miodrag on left shoot a low 12 yarder that the

goalie pushed wide left of the post. 53 minutes had SWE

Bundu cross from 22 yards on the right and Miodrag headed

the ball over the net from 8 yards. 66 minutes had the AV

goalie block two SWE Beader blasts from 15 yards point blank

down the middle. 75 minutes had SWE Ivan Stankovic take

a 35 yard freekick from the left that SWE Vitomar Jelic

headed from 8 yards on the left into the outside webbing of

the net. A minute later SWE Strunjas received a pass from

SWE Stankovic and booted a 6 yard shot over a sliding defender

and over the net. 81 minutes had SWE Miodrag cross from 45

yards on right and SWE Stankovic nodded a 10 yard header

that the goalie caught.

This game was recorded by Rogers Community channel for

later rebroadcast (maybe next Saturday or Sunday night)

in the Toronto area. Dana McKiel provided the play by

play and Enio Perruzza (the usual PA announcer) was the

colour commentator. I like a more "#10 passes to #20"

type of commentary instead of history stories that have

to be broken up (and sometimes they weren't) when a shot

was taken. Both have long histories for soccer in this

city. I helped feed them the subs (these are strong

binculars I carry) and straightened up the Red card

incident. But then lately I've been annoyed by the

MLS caller Luke Wileman giving full recaps of the scorelines

or next game played or last game played every five

minutes of game time. A perfect punishment

in Hell for him would be that he be forced to give an

entire recap of a basketball game--all 185 points.

Anyway, I should just be grateful that this CSL game is

shown at all!

Both teams had played games on Friday night and lost.

Astros were defeated 2-0 in London and White Eagles

lost 2-1 to York Region Shooters. Shooters played

one hour after this game ended giving me enough time

to drive up there and catch their game against

Windsor.

Astros Vasas played their first game in their new

all red kits with gold numbers. This makes them

been a long delay for the equipment to arrive.

They wore those kits in the June 23 game (broadcast by Rogers the following week).

I'd say the difference between Astros and White Eagles

when they played May 17th in Etobicoke (the only other

game I'd seen Astros in so far this year) was the

addition of players Joey Melo and Tristan Watson.

Joey Melo played for Mississauga Eagles in the CSL for

the last few years (and on MLS Toronto FC during 2007

and 2008).

I'm surprised that Melo ended up on Astros Vasas and not a better team.

Result and details of the Sunday July 7, 2013 CSL

game between York Region Shooters and Windsor Stars

played at St Joan of Arc Catholic High School in

Vaughan at 7:30pm.

55 min...YRS Richard West GOAL...YRS Matthew Rios

passes forward up middle from 30 yards. West gets

ball and cuts arond defender to take low 18 yard

shot into right corner of net over diving goalie

Anthony Santilli.

60 min...YRS Ali Hanam GOAL...YRS Richard West

on right centers pass from 35 yards and misses

YRS player running down middle. Hanam trailing

on far left follows up and is in alone at 25

yards and shoots low into right corner of net.

86 min...YRS Ryan Dummett GOAL...YRS Kadian Lecky

pokes ball away that was loose in box and goalie

had called for. Lecky then taps ball over to

Dummett and his low 12 yard shot has goalie get

piece of but ball rolls under him to center of net.

Final Score:...York Region Shooters........3...

Windsor Stars........0.........

Attendance was about 80 with rain falling most of

the first half.

Referee Manuel Orellana gave out only one Yellow

card that I counted and that was at 10 minutes

when he booked YRS Richard West for diving

in the box when the goalie dove for the ball.

West went down for an injury on the play but

returned to the game. Orellana's son Alex

was a referee's assistant.

Most of the first half was played in the Stars'

end.

Stars only had three outfield players and a

goalie on the subs bench and one of them was

the manager. I wouldn't expect them to

be home until 1:30am on the four hour drive

home.

Adrian Ibanez earned the shutout for the Shooters

having to make only a few key saves. He was well

protected by the defensive line of Ricky Herron,

Fitzroy Christey, and Dino Gardener. The team

has only allowed 8 goals in 9 games (second only

to Toronto Croatia).

Diego Hernan Maradona came into the game at 82 minutes

to replace Richard West. The middle name now

shown on lineups will go far so Googlers won't

confuse him with his famous uncle.

Richard Edwards will be on the Shooters by their

next game after weeks of negotiations. The 29 year old

midfielder played earlier this year for Harbour View and

has been capped by the Jamaican national team 24 times.

Best non-scoring chances were at 6 minutes when YRS Ali

Hanam charged for a 25 yard cross from right and shot an

8 yarder up middle over the net. 20 minutes had YRS Matthew

Rios dribble in to 25 yards down middle and shoot that

the flying ogalie caught on the left post. 32 minutes

had YRS Nicolas Martinez crossing from 20 yards on the left

and YRS Rios at 12 yards along right end line head ball

to center and YRS Richard West's bicycle kick from 10 yards

was just wide left of the post. 53 minutes had WS Stephen

Ademolu run down the middle and passed to right for charging

WS Micheal Kio who shot low 22 yarder that goalie dove

to block then crawled to smother rebound at 10 yards before

Kio could get to it. 81 minutes had Desmond Humphrey in

middle roll the ball forward and right to YRS Kadian Lecky

in clear and his 18 yard shot had the sprawling goalie

right post deflect the ball wide right. 84 minutes had

YRS Leckie shoot and the goalie sprawled to make a point

blank stop and a YRS player's follow up shot was stopped

by the prone goalie.

Shooters record improves to 6 wins, 2 losses, 1 tie after

this weekend's wins against Serbian White Eagles and Windsor.

They are in 3rd place. Stars record drops to 3 wins, 3 losses,

1 tie. They beat Burlington 3-0 in a home game on Friday.

They are 6th in the standings but hold between 1 to 3 games

in hand on all the teams ahead of them.
