Box Score The Warriors opened their second game of the weekend against a strong McMaster squad on Sunday afternoon in what was a very physical affair. The Marauders controlled possession much of the match and scored four second-half goals to defeat the Warriors 4-0. Warriors move to 0-4-1 on the season.

Yusuf Khaled (Burlington/) opened the match missing a near opportunity in the 4^th minute off a driving shot from a tough angle. The physicality in the match picked up substantially early on with many poor tackles leading to numerous spot kicks for McMaster.

The Marauders Mark Riley earned a penalty shot in the 21^st minute after goalkeeper Tomas Modjesch conceded a late tackle. Riley missed the net on the penalty shot which kept the game knotted at 0-0.

McMaster continued to maintain possession and generated much of the offence before the Warriors' Matthew Cimino (Guelph/) made a goal-saving header in the 31^st minute to clear the black and gold's goal line. Nodjosch would continue his stellar play by back-stopping a breakaway by the Marauders in the 42^nd minute. The teams would head into the break in a scoreless draw very much to the delight of the Warriors.

McMaster would come out firing in the second half with strong ball possession and an eagerness to break the deadlock. McMaster thought they had opened the scoring in the 50^th minute only to be taken back after a foul by the Marauders striker.

The physicality in the match would increase before both captains received a yellow card in the 52^nd minute for unsportsmanlike behavior. Waterloo would generate a goal of their own in the 61^st minute but it was called back due to a close offside call.

McMasters substitute Kyle Kazda would open the scoring in the 67^th minute off a solid cross in from the Marauders midfield. Mark Reilly would make a great turn shortly after and distribute the ball to teammate Christian Truyen for the easy tap-in to extend the lead to 2-0. Chris Luxton would add a tally in the 84^th minute and David Serafini would add a fourth in the 92^nd minute to bring the game to a close. McMaster dominated the Warriors in the 4-0 victory.

The Waterloo Warriors have suffered offensively through much of the season and will be sure to make that a focus leading up to their next matches. Waterloo will host the York Lions in action on September 19^th at 4:15pm on Warrior Field.
