LONDON CITY, WATERLOO SCORE MIDWEEK VICTORIES....another hat-trick for Vucemilovic-Grgic London City improved its chances of a playoff berth with a deserved 4-2 defeat of Brampton City, while SC Waterloo, which has already secured a playoff spot, eased past Serbian White Eagles 2-1, two games in the CSL Wednesday night. A highlight of the London victory at the Hellenic Centre in London was three goals by striker Marin Vucemilovic-Grgic, his second hat-trick in less than a month, having scored all three in a 3-2 victory over SC Waterloo on September 6. Vucemilovic-Grgic opened the scoring for London with his first goal at nine minutes and Zvonko Bakula found the net past Brampton goalkeeper Camilo Benzi to make it 2-0 at the 18th minute mark. Brampton reduced the lead with a goal from the penalty spot at 24 minutes when referee Arthur Kobiel ordered the kick following a foul in the box. Milos Scepanovic scored, his 15th of the season and it was 2-1 at the interval. Vucemilovic Grgic struck his second at 48 minutes and his third to complete the hat-trick for a 4-1 London lead at 55 minutes. The three goals gives Vucemilovic-Grgic 19 for the season. Stephen Hall scored a late goal at 90 minutes for the visitors and it was 4-2 at the final whistle. The game completes London’s regular season with an 8-11-3 WLT record for 27 points, but the southwestern Ontario club must wait the outcome of other games to find out if it has secured a playoff berth. Brampton have a 12-7-1 record for 37 points and will end the regular season in the top four. Dado Hadrovic had SC Waterloo on the road to a win at Esther Shiner Stadium with a goal at the 25th minute mark and Serbian White Eagles suffered a second set-back when forward Sahjah Reid was shown the red card by referee Michael Anthony Izzo at 26 minutes. It was 1-0 at half-time. Forward Ramon Bailey scored with a low drive from 30 yards to tie the game for Serbian Eagles at 54 minutes, but Ranko Golijanin struck the winner for Waterloo when he found the net from 12 yards past Serbian Eagles goalkeeper Scott Cliff at the 70th minute mark, a 2-1 final score in favour of the visitors. Waterloo has played 20 games and is finishing its regular season strongly with a 9-7-4 record for 31 points and presently in fifth position in the standings, while Serbian White Eagles have a 6-11-2 record for 20 points in 10th position.
