Final Score:........Brampton Stallions.........4..............Laval Dynamites................2.............
Attendance was about 100 on this warm evening with the sun still shining brightly for the first half from the north west.
Although the scoreboard worked, there were no announcements, music nor national anthem. They did have their barbecue/concession stand set up. Only the intermittent cheering of a boy's soccer team "Gunners" provided some atmosphere.
Milodrag Akmadzic is the new coach of the Stallions ending a struggle between the owner and the previous manager who had his favourite players according to an insider posting on the Voyageurs message board. I can't think of a better coach for this team right now than 'Bosco' who still is their stalwart in defense. Their second goal was created by him from pure hustle to rush for that loose ball and cross it in perfectly.
The Dynamites brought only eleven players. They listed another two but the fourth official wasn't buying it and they will fined by the league. After the game, a Dynamites player answered me that it was the same when they played the night before against Hamilton Thunder. It's hard for them to gather players when they have work and school. He was telling a Stallions player that (with this game ending at 9:00pm) they wouldn't be back in Montreal until 4:00am. Jammil Demers played the game with his wrist in a cast.
Vaughan Shooters manager Ruben Toro stopped by to watch the game and said his team had won their game in Michigan against Windsor Border Stars 1-0 with the Border Stars as the Home team only having 12 players. That was their trouble on Friday night when I saw them in Oshawa beat Durham Storm. He had some details about the CPSL branching into a Futsal League with maybe 16 teams. One goalie, four outfield players plus maybe five subs. The application form has a $1250 entry fee for the men's division and $10,000 in prize money.
Stallions had the luxury of bringing in six substitutions (the maximum in this league is seven) but oddly they finished the game shorthanded when their goalie Roy Blanche was crunched in injury time when a Dynamites knocked him while both leaped for a high ball. Andres Gravioli who was listed as their backup goalie but was playing as an outfield player since the 55 minute mark came over to the sideline for his goaltender shirt to finish the game in net.
Stallions' owner Joe Fuliere had some more details about the CPSL press conference coming up on Thursday. It will be about some GTA teams becoming 'Ethnic'. Well we figured Toronto Croatia and Toronto Supra (Portuguese) actually are. He said he is not ready to jump because he'd have to think with Brampton being such a multi-ethnic city, that it might alienate their fans if he narrowed in on one group.
