Our Serbian White Eagles continued to show a strong opening season performance with a 3-1 defeat of Scarborough SC in the regular season opener at Rob Ford Stadium yesterday. The result follows the Royal CSL Cup final 2-1 victory five days earlier and a 12-0 rout of Spanish Future Stars FC in the semifinal on May 31.
Scarborough pressed in the early stages with forwards Petar Djordjevic and Matias Gonzales prominent.
Defender Srdjan Simovic opened the scoring for our Eagles at the 28th minute mark, heading in from a corner kick and out of reach of Scarborough goalkeeper Vladimir Dragicevic. It was 1-0 at the break.
Nikola Timotijevic increased the lead to 2-0 with a low drive at 49 minutes and Marko Pavicevic struck a third goal for Serbian White Eagles five minutes later, finding the net from twelve yards after taking a pass from the right wing.
Luiz Suarez scored for Scarborough at 71 minutes for a 3-1 result at the final whistle.
