Scarborough SC scored twice in the first half to defeat FC Ukraine United 2-0 in a well played encounter at Birchmount Stadium Sunday night, to complete the holiday weekend schedule in the Canadian Soccer League.
There were few opportunities on both sides, but Scarborough scored at 19 minutes when midfielder Naieemollah Mobin found the net with a shot from 12 yards for a 1-0 lead.
Midfielder Zoran Knezevic increased the lead to 2-0 with a drive from 10 yards at the 30th minute mark, the score at the break and at the final whistle.
The victory made amends for the east Toronto team following a loss by the same score to Ukraine United at Centennial Stadium on June 23.
Scarborough takes a second position in the First Division standings as a result of the win, an improved 5-1-0 WLT record for 15 points while conceding just 4 goals in the 6 games played.
It’s the first defeat of the season for Ukraine United, now with a 3-1-0 record for nine points in fifth position.
Next game Ukrainians will play away this coming up Friday, July 5th against Kingsman SC at Esther Shiner Stadium. Kickoff 9:00 PM
