Final Score:...Toronto Supra.....1.....St Catharines Roma Wolves.....1....

Attendance was about 150 including two of the Voyageurs checking out the action. I decided to pass on the meaningless Astros vs Shooters Cup game as Olympians have wrapped up the semifinal spot and watch this league game between the 2nd and 3rd place teams. A result like this only helps first place Toronto Olympians and the Ottawa Wizards who have games on hand on all the teams.

Supra had the best chances in the first half and Wolves in the second so this was a fair result.

Referee Andrew Jasinski had this chippy game well in hand. Best moment was when he gave Sam Afriyie a Yellow card for a handball in Wolves box and then asked loudmouths Dino Perri and another W player "do you want one too?" to shut them up.
