MONTREAL ACADEMY SPLIT WEEK-END WITH VICTORY AT WINDSOR - Pro soccer returns to Windsor Stadium 
Sunday, May 08, 2011   

Montreal Impact Academy split their two-game weekend with a 2-0 victory over Windsor Stars at Windsor Stadium, the season opener for the border city and 
the only game played in the CSL Saturday night.

The academy team were defeated 3-1 by TFC Academy in the first game played in Toronto Friday.

It was a close encounter throughout with the visitors having a slight edge against a team looking tentative in their play before a home crowd witnessing 
professional soccer returning to that part of southwestern Ontario for the first time following the period 2004 to 2008 when the city was represented 
by Windsor Border Stars.

The Quebec team took a 1-0 lead at 32 minutes when Yacinthe Michelog struck a low shot to beat Stars’ goalkeeper Anthony Santili from the edge of the 
penalty box.

Windsor played with more confidence in the second half and pressed for an equalizer, but it was Montreal Impact Academy that found the net when 
at 92 minutes they were awarded a penalty. Defender Filip Rocca brought down a Montreal defender and referee John Oliva had no hesitation in pointing 
to the spot. Felix Cardin scored to make it 2-0 and the score held to the final whistle.

Montreal Impact Academy’s next game is against SC Toronto at Lamport Stadium Friday, May 13, while Windsor Stars will host Brampton City Utd 
at Windsor Stadium next Saturday, May 14.

There are two games remaining this weekend when Serbian White Eagles visit Maple for the York Region Shooters opener at 6 pm and two hours later 
TFC Academy are at home to Mississauga Eagles at Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke.
