There were nervous times
for these supporters
as the Serbians seemed
destined to blow the
game wide open.
White Eagles offensive
output in the CPSL at that
time was over 4 goals a
game and they had full
control of the first half.
However, the stubborn
Harbour View defense
was not willing to give up
any easy goals and it left
the Serbians very
f r u s t r a t e d w i t h a
scoreless game at the
half.
Harbour View started the
second half with more
intensity and a noticeable
improvement in their
offensive play and
scored at the 60th minute
from a penalty kick after a
S e r b i a n d e f e n d e r s
misdirected a hard shot
w i t h h i s h a n d .
However, the Serbs
turned up the offensive
pressure in search of the
equalizer but it was not to
be.

Harbour View prevailed with the 1-0 victory
against a team which was undefeated in
league play to that point. The Serbians only
lost was in the Canada Cup KO Tournament at
the hands of the Toronto Lynx of the USL on
penalty kicks from a game tied 2-2 after
overtime. Nevertheless, Caribbean fans left
Centennial Stadium happy and looking forward
to the International match featuring a Jamaica
Invitational against Trinidad and Tobago.
The game between Harbour
View of Jamaica and Serbian
White Eagles of Canada is yet
another international match
that Caribbean Stars has been
involved that included a team
from the Caribbean.
The Harbour View-Serbian
White Eagles match was
played on Sunday August 13,
2006 at Centennial Stadium in
Etobicoke.
The game was just two weeks
before the highly anticipated
Soccer Salute event at
Lamport Stadium so the
match at Centennial Stadium
was in fact a preview to the
standard of play in Jamaica.
Serbian White Eagles was in
their first year in the
Canadian Soccer League and
attracting large crowds and
Centennial was their home
field. As expected the Eagles
got off to a quick start while
the Harbour View (Jamaican)
crowd seemed a little disap-
pointed in the play of their
team in the early stages
game.
