September 20, 2013 CSL--details of Friday games (from CSL website)
KINGSTON HELD TO 1-1 TIE BY SERBIAN EAGLES.....weather takes out London City vs Brampton Kingston FC were held to a 1-1 tie by Serbian White Eagles in a well-played game in doubt until the final whistle at Esther Shiner Stadium, North York, the only game played in the Canadian Soccer League Friday night. Another game scheduled, London City vs Brampton City Utd., was called off at the Hellenic Centre, London, due to thunderstorms and lightning. Kingston were heavily favoured to land an additional three points in their bid for the CSL First Division title, but it was Serbian Eagles to strike first with a goal at 28 minutes by midfielder Djorjije Strunjas. He drove the ball low from inside the penalty box to catch the left side of the net out of reach of Kingston goalkeeper Jaroslav Tesar. It was 1-0 at half-time. Just three minutes into the second half striker Guillaume Surot equalized with a low shot from 25 yards to beat Serbian Eagles goalkeeper Scott Cliff. It was Surot’s 25th goal of the season and improved his already good chances of winning the First Division goalscoring title in the regular season which is due to end early October. There were few opportunities for either side to catch a winner, although at 85 minutes Ramon Bailey came close in an attempt that was saved by Taser. The game ended 1-1, giving Kingston a 14-3-2 WLT record for 44 points which is one-up over York Region Shooters at 83 points. Serbian White Eagles have a 7-10-1 record for 22 points in eighth place.
