Final Score:.......York Region Shooters...........1.............North York Astros.............1.............
Attendance was about 60 people on this warm early evening but the temperature dropping as the game went on.
The Shooters dominated the first half of this game and more accurate kicking could have seen them run away with this game. The second half had chances for each team. Best near scoring chances that weren't ended because of bad shots or mistimed passes offsides were at 25 minutes when Shooters Jason DeThomasis bent a 25 yard shot from the left that the flying goalie pushed wide right of the post and at 54 minutes when Astros Erik Grigore in middle cut around a defender and his 12 yard shot was caught by the flying goalie just under the bar.
Astros had lost ten games in a row until Friday night when they upset the first place team Serbian White Eagles 1-0 on an own goal that held up until the end and rain can be a great equalizer. I hadn't seen them play for five weeks but they were getting progressively worse as the weeks went by until they lost a few games by 5-0 and 7-0 scorelines. New coach Gerardo Lezcano said after the game it was his eleventh game in charge tonight. He has tried some new formations and found something successful today. He did admit that White Eagles had possession on Friday but Astros were fortunate for the own goal to win the game. He answered that goalie Kingsley Alarcon had tried out for the team two months ago and played for the reserves to get started. Four points on the weekend but I think it's too late for a playoff run.
Shooters had a chance to pass the White Eagles tonight when that team was held to a tie earlier in the afternoon. The tie keeps the Shooters in second place. The tie earlier in the day between TFC Academy and Milltown FC kept both those teams from moving up the standings too. The last-kick-of-the-match shot for goal was similar to a situation a few months ago I reminded assistant coach Tony DeThomasis when the Shooters pulled off a tie against Milltown FC well into injury time.
