Scepanovic struck again 10 minutes later his second goal from the penalty spot, to move the prolific striker to the top of the CSL goalscoring statistics with 11 goals so far this season.
With the visitors looking like the stronger side as the second half progressed, Serbian Eagles scored again at 76 minutes when forward Sasa Viciknez beat Montreal Academy goalkeeper Dominic Provost to make it 3-0.
The play was held up following an altercation at the 84th minute mark, following which Armal Degrou of from the Academy side and Alex Braletic from Serbian White Eagles were both shown the red card.
Five minutes later a the 89th minute, Yannik Rome-Gosselin was brought down in the penalty box by Eagles' defender Marc Jankovic and Rome-Gosselin took the kick to make it 3-1, the score at the final whistle.

They now have a 7-1-3 WLT record for 24 points with a remarkably low 7 goals conceded from the 11 games played. Montreal Impact Academy now have a 4-7-4 record for 16 points.
Milltown have been similarly successful in their gradual climb up the standings and are still the league leaders despite a 1-0 loss to TFC Academy in a game that could have gone either way.
The lone goal to decide the close encounter came at 65 minutes when TFC forward Nicholas Lindsay drove the ball from just inside the 18 yard line to beat Scott Cliff in the Milltown FC goal.
