Final Score:.....Toronto Supra........2...............Vaughan Shooters...........0........
Attendance was about 100 people on this hot humid evening.
There was a long injury time in the second half which was only supposed to be two extra minutes because Vaughan goalie Alvarado was injured in the 90th minute when he slid in his box to block Supra Fabio Silva's shot and looked like he took the ball in the face. Micheal Silva earned the shutout for the Supra and both he and Alvarado made some key saves and forced some bad shots.
Both teams had enough chances for at least four goals each (well OK, Supra could have scored eight). Supra captain Danny Amaral had about half dozen chances on headers that he put either right to the goalie or off target. Both teams had their goalies give their players quick breaks by either punting the ball upfield quickly or spotting an open man.
Toronto Supra have stabilized their defence with CPSL veterans Robert Fran and Domagoz Sain. Both players have long experiences with Toronto Croatia in previous years.
