The beginning of the game displayed a lot of cautious play on both sides and was mainly played in the midfield. Vukoje had first serious chance in 6th minute, after West crossed the ball finding him on the first post but his header went over the crossbar. Novais centers the ball in 8th minute, and missed the goal by inches. As the game progressed, Eagles were taking the initiative and in 19th minute come in the lead. Bailey’s elegantly passed the ball over the defence for Anastasov who makes best out of it and scores 1:0! In 22nd minute free kick was awarded by referee on the top of penalty box, Milicic centered it perfectly but Novais missed the net and send the ball inches over the crossbar.

In the second half our team continued playing good and is setting the pace of the game allowing them to reach opponents goal. In 48th minute Vukoje found West who breaks all alone in front of the goalie but Zareian made a save. Big opportunity came again in 50th minute when Vlaski found Anastasov who from a good position takes a half-volley and misses the net by an inch. The Eagle’s high pace and control of the game was crowned in 64th minute when Anderson foun Rajovic who then passed the ball, with laser precision, to West on the second post for a easy score 2:0! First good real opportunity opponents had in 66th minute when Whiteman passed Vlaski and centered to Nogueira who took a header but Djurkovic saved it. This was followed by period of slow pace since almost new who will win the game and our team safe playes controlled opponent’s attacks. Anderson who entered game in second half , got his first yellow in 81st minute and his second in 90th minute which brought automatic red card, it seems quite unnecessary

Eagles continued with their good performance, and that is not a surprise anymore , in the next round of play Eagles will be facing Toronto Croatia, which also had a good start and are unbeaten. We will see who will be better in the derby.
