Serbian White Eagles and Scarborough played to a 1-1 draw in a hard fought, attractive opening game at Esther Shiner Stadium on Saturday.
Scarborough opened the scoring at 12 minutes from a drive on the edge of the penalty area by Devroy Grey, a 1-0 lead at the break. Serbian White Eagles, playing without Tayjon Campbell and Vladimir Strizovic who were both serving suspensions, equalized early in the second half when Iqbal Hussain headed in a cross from the left.
There is no change at the top of the standings with Scarborough holding on to its top position by the narrowest of margins. Both Scarborough and Serbian White Eagles have won five games and have sixteen points – each have tied one game and lost one. The difference is in the goals scored and goals against, with Scarborough’s 21-5 narrowly edging our Serbian White Eagles score of 19-7.
The Serbian White Eagles play their next game on Saturday September 6 (4:00 PM) at Esther Shiner Stadium in North York against Aeem Canada.
