by Rocket Robin

Result of the A-League game between Toronto Lynx and Montreal Impact played Saturday June 16th, 2001 at Varsity Stadium at 7:00pm.

15 min...Impact GOAL Martin Dugas...Sunny Nwachvkwu takes 30 yard freekick from left and crosses into box on right and charging Dugas touches mid air shot from 7 yards to left side of net beyond diving goalie Theo Zagar.

63 min...Impact GOAL Niall Thompson...Nick DeSantis freekick from 40 yards on left, DeSantis scores on leaping header from 7 yards.

74 min...Lynx GOAL Joe Mattacchione...Aristodemo freekick from 35 yards on left is headed in by Mattacchione from 5 yards.

75 min...Impact GOAL George Papandreou...Mauro Biello short chip up pass over defender and Papandreou takes 20 yard scissor kick is shot into left corner of net.

Final Score:...Toronto Lynx....1.....Montreal Impact....3...

Attendance was announced as 2265.

The first three goals were all scored on set pieces.

Referee Frank Marciello gave out Yellow cards for time wasting to Impact Greg Sutton for time wasting at the 30 minute mark for taking too long with a goal kick. I don't think the Impact expected to go into a defensive shell for the last hour of the game! Only one of his questionable calls.

Lynx score their fourth goal in seven games. Now they play some games on the road and won't be home until July 6th against Vancouver Whitecaps.
