Final Score:.........Serbian White Eagles........2............Montreal Impact Academy.........2.........

Attendance was about 180 on this hot and humid evening although it cooled to a nice temperature as the sun set by the second half.

This was a rough and hard fought game with 42 fouls—21 to each team. (I don't keep that detailed a description of the game but got the figures from the referee assessor).

White Eagles had a makeshift defence getting by without Ricardo Manguia Perez who was Red carded in the Sunday game against Brampton City United and Mirko Medic who had accumulated enough Yellow cards (including one on Sunday) for suspension. Midfielder Kirie Dimitrov also did not play because of injury so Darryl Gomez took most of the cornerkicks from the left. Milos Scepanovic takes them from the right. Sasa Viciknez played the entire 90 minutes (the team rarely has the 37 year old as a starter anymore) in midfield and was very effective in sending passes forward to forwards Shane Lammie and Alex Braletic.

Best non-scoring chances started early with at 3 minutes when SWE Sasa Viciknez passed the ball forward and SWE Shane Lammie eluded a defender to one-touch blast a 22 yarder that the diving goalie pushed wide right. At 24 minutes SWE Milos Scepanovic crossed from near the left corner flag and had Lammie nod a 6 yard header that the flying goalie stops and a defender cleared. 26 minutes found MIA on a 2 on 1 rush with Wandrille Lefevre and Bastien Bourgault against defender Mark Jankovic but Lefevre electing to shoot from 22 yards on the right that the sliding goalie stopped. Two minutes later Lefevre bent a 28 yard freekick from the left around the wall and the diving goalie saved on the left post. The SWE goalie made a mistake a minute later by picking the ball up outside the box although his feet were still in the box. Referee Peter Pendli gave him a Yellow card and it let the MIA have a dangerous freekick. Maxim Tissot blasted the 20 yard freekick up the middle and the goalie palmed it over the bar. 35 minutes found MIA Lefevre on right rolling an 18 yarder wide left of the post. 40 minutes had SWE Scepanovic take a 25 yard freekick from the right that had SWE Jankovic just miss connecting on a header from 3 yards on the left post as he charged forward. In injury time SWE Alex Braletic took a throw-in from the right and Lammie sent a 10 yard scissor kick shot over the net.

Second half had MIA Serge Dinkota receive a pass and take a quick blast up the middle from 22 yards that had the goalie bat down and crawl to pick up. 76 minutes had SWE Scepanovic take a cornerkick from the right that had SWE Jankovic head across the box from the left and Viciknez on the right nodded the ball to the middle of the box and SWE Filip Velasevic injure himself when he missed on an 8 yard bicycle kick. 78 minutes had Scepanovic boot an 18 yard shot wide right just missing the post when he was sent throught on the left. 86 minutes had SWE sub Viktor Anastasov chip Scepanovic a pass on the left and he shot just wide right from 15 yards when in alone on the left. 92 minutes found Viciknez take a 35 yard freekick from the left that a SWE player get an 8 yard shot that the goalie flies to block. Scepanovic took a 10 yard rebound shot that was deflected wide left for a cornerkick.

A tie was a fair result for this game but either team could have won. Impact Academy now travel to Brantford tomorrow evening against the Galaxy. Montreal and Ottawa always come to Southern Ontario to play two games in two days but then that's matched by the southern Ontario teams doing the same thing once a year when they play Montreal and Ottawa. White Eagles had just travelled there two weekends ago and lost both games.
