Pacific FC beats York United 2-1
Those around the Canadian Premier League were right to wonder when long-legged striker Reon Moore would show his offensive prowess, which has been so evident in international play, with 10 goals and 28 caps for Trinidad and Tobago.
“Reon would be the first to tell you that he has been frustrated with the season. It has not always gone his way,” said PFC head coach James Merriman. The winning goal came six minutes later. The play began when a daring diving tackle by PFC stalwart Kunle-Dada Luke resulted in a clean strip of the ball off the feet of a York United midfielder. That led to a quick two-man breakaway the other way with PFC forward Dario Zanatta carrying the ball down the right side and drawing the ’keeper, before passing off to a wide-open Moore, who tapped in for the winner at 88 minutes.
Oswaldo Montoya had put York United into the lead with an against-the-flow goal just before half-time despite PFC having had 11 corner kicks in the first half to just one for the Nine Stripes.
