As Fabio Silva doesn't speak English, I'll thank teammate Martin Peraza for translating who set up those goals.
Attendance was about 125 on this warm evening. The field was still in rough shape from last Sunday's Supra game played in a storm then today's Lynx game.
Olympians play all their games on the road this year. Their roster looks a lot different than last year. Dino Perri and Sam Borgh from Hamilton Thunder, Danny Gallagher from St Catharines, Paul Moore has also played for St Catharines. Fernando Tantalo and John Matas played for Metro Lions last year. Only the CPSL's leading scorer last year Darren Tilley was from last year's Olympians.
Toronto Supra has Jarek Radzinski on their roster this year and tonight he led a few rushes into the Olympians end. Supra captain Danny Amaral also looked dangerous. Goalie Michael Silva had to be sharp on a few occasions to earn the shutout.
