Mustangs' effort not enough against Lions

Today the Mustangs men's soccer team faced the York Lions for the second time this season and instead of coming away with a tie like last time, the men lost 2-0.

At 35 minutes Mustang Oliver Richardson received a yellow card. At the end of the first half the Lions led 1-0.

At 30 minutes York players Charlie Trafford and Arthur Casupanan received yellow cards.
