Final Score:........Toronto Olympians...........3............York Region Shooters........1.....

Attendance was about 80 people.

York Region played the last 53 minutes of the game with a man short after Daniel Wrong picked up his second Yellow card after Olympians scored two goals in three minutes. Still Olympians did just enough tonight to win.

This must be the fourth kit I've seen the Olympians wear this year. Before the game, Alf DeBlasis was filming a segment interviewing Eddy Berdusco which was later used as part of that Saturday's Soccer Central segment on the SportsNet network.
