Final Score:.....SC Toronto.....3.....Kingston FC.....2...

Attendance was about 50 on this mild evening after a day of rain. The crowd grew to 100 by the end of the game with permit holders waiting for their beer league to start but this was the smallest crowd that I've seen for SC Toronto this year.

The game started off quickly and I was expecting it might end 5-5 after the early goals but both teams started to find it tough to string passes together. SCT regained their touch in the last 15 minutes and scored both the tieing and winning goals. I estimate that in the final 10 minutes of the game SCT outchanced KFC 7 to 1 in pressing for a winning goal.

Referee Rich Oliveira gave out four Yellow cards that I counted all in the second half and didn't fall for any Penalty kick calls for either team.

This game was taped for the Rogers Community channel game of the week and will be broadcast on Sunday at 8:00pm for Rogers TV customers in Toronto.

Tonight's result moves SC Toronto up to second place with an 8-1-4 record. Kingston FC stays in 14th at 3-12-1. SCT has one more game this weekend when they play on the road against North York Astros.
