August 8, 2013 CSL--preview of weekend games (from CSL website)

SHOOTERS, KINGSTON AIM FOR THE TOP......Two more postponments at Centennial Stadium

With two of the top four teams seeing action this weekend, Kingston FC (at home to SC Waterloo) 
and York Region Shooters (visiting Windsor Stars), both have an opportunity if they achieve 
a victory on Sunday to move ahead of Toronto Croatia in the CSL First Division standings 
to continue a week by week ever changing race for the league title.

Toronto Croatia are without a game due to their home ground of Centennial Stadium in Etobicoke 
still under repair following the severe flooding of July 8 and the home game against 
Brampton City Utd scheduled for Sunday, has been postponed.

The ground closure has also affected the Serbian White Eagles vs Burlington SC encounter previously 
set for Friday night, this game has also been called off and is to be played late in the season.

For the eight teams underneath the runaway top four it may develop into a fight for one of the four 
remaining playoff berths from a total of eight if the present trend continues, and while some clubs 
are faltering at this stage of the season, Astros Vasas FC is a club on the improve. They will have 
an opportunity to be seen this weekend by the visiting Hungarian Secretary of State for Sport in that 
eastern European country, Lajos Kü , who will be present at Sunday’s game for a ceremonial kickoff.

Lajos Kü played for Videoton, Ferencvárosi TC, Club Brugge K.V. and SC Eisenstadt. He played for Brugge KV 
against Liverpool in the European Cup Final of 1978, but is well-known also for gaining a silver medal 
at the 1972 Summer Olympics and being a midfielder for Hungary in UEFA Euro 1972.
