Game Recap: Women's Soccer | | By: Sydney Hoareau

LIONS TAKE DOWN WARRIORS WITH FOUR GOALS

On Saturday, October 10 the York University women's soccer team pulled a convincing 4-0 win over the University of Waterloo Warriors to extend their unbeaten record to an impressive 11-0-1 on the year.

The Lions had the Warriors on the back foot off the first whistle, thrusting forward with a very versatile attack and breaking the score line early within the first two minutes. Running off the Warriors back line from a penetrating pass slotted through by Sydney Hoareau (Brampton, Ont.), Sarah Wong (Scarborough, Ont.)  met the ball in the final third, and pushed the ball by Waterloo's keeper to grab the first goal of the game.

Soon after in the 18th minute, Wong found herself in the technical area again to flick the ball onto Kiyani Johnson (Markham, Ont.) at the back post to close the half off with a 2-0 lead.
 
Coming into the second half, the Lions continued to dominate on and off the ball. In the 66th minute Johnson added another goal to the Lions tally with a dynamic individual effort. Muscling her way through a sea of Waterloo defenders, Johnson found a way to stay on her feet and slip the ball into the back of the net to increase the damage to 3-0.

Finalizing the win was half-time substitute Colleen Beesley (Richmond Hill, Ont.) who gave the Warriors a lot of trouble in the second half. Pouncing off of a scramble in the box from Charlene D'Mello's long range shot, Beesely fearlessly threw herself at a Warriors clearance to deflect the ball into the back of the net.
 
Every player off of the Lions game sheet put in minutes on the pitch and they all played an active role to ensure the win.
 
The team finished the game with 17 shots by 10 different players and the Warriors only finished with one. Leading in shots was Beesley, Johnson, and Christina Morelli (Markham, Ont.)
               
In the upcoming week the Lions will be preparing to take on the Warriors again in Waterloo. Kickoff will be at 6 pm on Friday (Oct. 16.)
