Ouzo tie Bulls on Sunday night

Posted by Rob Anderson at Mar 22, 2009 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

SOCCER CITY - ETOBICOKE:  In a battle for first place, Ouzo played Raging Bulls on Sunday night.  Both teams were looking to take points in what looks like another tight race for the Title. 

Ouzo went up by a goal by Stu Fletcher in the first half, but weren’t able to keep the lead as the Bulls countered with 3 straight goals of their own. 

Down 3-1 Ouzo were up against the odds. While the boys didn’t play their best game, the veteran’s battled to win every challenge and worked their way back into the game.  Goals by PK and Rusnov secured the draw in a must game for Ouzo.  A tremendous game by Keeper, Andrew Spencer is what solidified the point for Ouzo. 

Fitness proved to be key as some of the Raging Bulls players were lagging in the final minutes.  The off-field drinking has Ouzo FC in top physical condition.   

Ouzo and the Bulls are tied on points, but the 6-0 victory over the Bulls in the 1st game has given Ouzo the edge on goal difference.  It will be a tight race for the Championship as Westside and Spartak are on form.  One thing is certain, NO team in the division drinks the way Ouzo does, which proves “Our drinking team has a SOCCER problem”™.

 

Up next for Ouzo is the Welland Tournament on Saturday.  Their first game is against INSOC at 1pm.

Another Canadian signing for TFC

Posted by Rob Anderson at Feb 23, 2009 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )
Toronto FC announced Tuesday that they have acquired defender Adrian Serioux from FC Dallas in exchange for Toronto's natural first round 2010 MLS SuperDraft pick and allocation money. Per league and team policy financial details were not announced.

"This is another great signing for our team," said manager, director of soccer Mo Johnston. "Adrian is a very strong defender plus we're adding another quality Canadian player to our roster. We're excited to get him in here and have him start working out with the rest of the team."

Serioux, 29, was originally selected by Toronto FC in the MLS Expansion Draft on November 17, 2006. He was traded later that same day to FC Dallas in the deal that brought midfielder Ronnie O'Brien to Toronto. Serioux is entering his fourth season in Major League Soccer after playing two in Dallas, and his rookie season in Houston with the Dynamo.

Used both in central defense and the center of the midfield with Dallas he started all 34 games he appeared in during his two seasons in Texas. His career-high four assists in 2008 were good for second on the team behind Andre Rocha's eight. In 2006 with Houston, he appeared in 20 games, making 15 starts and scored one goal during the regular season. He also appeared in all four of the Dynamo's postseason games, helping lead the club to their first MLS Cup Championship.

The Canadian started his career with the Toronto Lynx of the A League in 2001, was named the Defensive Player of the Year that season, and earned a spot on the League's All-Star team. In 2004 he signed a two year contract with Millwall of the English League Championship.

A member of the Canadian National team, he made his debut for the squad as a substitute against Guatemala in the semi-final round of FIFA World Cup Qualifying on August 18, 2004. He currently sits with 19 caps for the Senior team.

The Scarborough native attended Pope John Paul II high school in Toronto where he also played basketball, volleyball and ran track. He was a member of Malvern Soccer Club while growing up and led them to five Provincial Cups and one National Championship. After graduation he played one year at the University of New Haven in Connecticut.

Adrian Serioux #15
Position: Defender
Height: 6-0
Weight: 190
Birthdate: May 12, 1979
