If you think that the most significant sporting event taking place on Wednesday September 27th was the Chicago Cubs division clinching win, you'd be wrong. It was the soccer battle of Riverside at St. John Vianney with our CCMS boys and the Vianney Stars.
Our boys came out strong in the 1st half, with relentless pressure in the Vianney half of the field, peppering the Stars net and moving the ball beautifully between players. Vianney would open the scoring however, on a freak through ball that had our D on the run and ended with a breakaway goal.
The scoreboard would end up turning in our favour quickly though, as the Cardinal pressure mounted once again in the Stars part of the field. Liam would tally 1st for the Cards, followed by Anthony, Zach and Tyler...resulting in a 4-1 lead for our boys at the half.
Lucas and Cozy were awesome between the pipes, and Aidan and Josh turned up the heat on D in the second half, limiting the Stars chances. Liam, Zach and Tyler would all get their 2nd goals and CCMS would roll to a 7-2 win!
Great job boys. Next up is a game at St. William on Monday.
