Friday’s (Aug. 2) 2-0 loss to Toronto Croatia at the
Hellenic Community Centre.
If the London City Soccer Club has recently
picked up their pace through July, then they missed a step to start
August during Friday’s (Aug. 2) 2-0 loss to Toronto Croatia at the
Hellenic Community Centre.
A heavy rain pour in the first half quickly
changed the game to a slip n’ slide soccer with and splashes at every
step, which proved to be trouble for London as they brought the ball
past midfield less than a handful of times.
Third-place Toronto had a much easier time and scored at 10-minute mark.
The second-half of the match was much closer
with both squads trading shots and going end-to-end, but only the away
team was able to capitalize by scoring on a free kick just outside the
18-yard box right before the final whistle.
The loss breaks a three-game win streak for
London, in which they picked up more than half of their wins on the
season.
“We played a terrible game. I think this was
the worst game of the season for us,” said London leading point getter,
Marin Vucemilovic Grgic. “We played a terrible game. I think this was
the worst game of the season for us.”
London will hit the road for their next game
on Aug. 9 when they take on the Windsor Stars, before coming back home
Aug. 17 to play against St. Catharines Roma.
