EQO Soccer Moves Outdoors

After a solid undefeated season of indoor soccer at Sportstown BC, the EQO All-stars took their high octane, run-and-gun style of play outdoors. The opponents, UTStarcom (formally known as Telos), a strong squad of 20 men, came to Albert Airey Park looking to avenge a prior 5-1 embarrassing loss.

From the opening kick, you could tell that the squad from UTStarcom was determined to not be whitewashed a second time. Harsh tackles and strong words nearly led to fisticuffs more than once (watch the video and you’ll see what I mean!). However, cooler heads prevailed and when all was said and done, the match was declared a 2-2 draw.

1st Star: Colin Quon--Carved his way through defenders, helped to break up the brouhaha between Stan and a colorfully-mouthed defender, and scored the game tying goal off a beauty of a corner kick.

2nd Star: "King" Richard Chow--Stopped about 87 shots, half of them from point blank range.

3rd Star: Amar Kulkarni--This UBC coop sensation was a bull out there.

Honourable Mention: Kelly Ko--After hearing about the misogynous remarks of a member of the other team at half time, she put forth an inspired 2nd half of soccer.
