23 Nov. '08. The Internationals returned to WRAL for a very early morning 3rd match with Erin Mills Academy Eagles (CND) on a sunny and cold day with relatively calm winds. The Internationals strong defense held the Eagles to no shots taken and 1 corner kick which was unsuccessful while committing 10 fouls. The Internationals launched a barrage of attacks and counter-attacks, shooting 6 shots on goal and 4 corner kick opportunities which were wide or high -- except one. With about 30 secs. left in the 1st half, Chris collected a ball upfield and distributed a pass to Schillo inside the box who struck in the go-ahead goal and the half ended shortly thereafter. Inter committed 9 fouls (including 5 offsides).
In the 2nd half, Inter kicked off and within the 1st min., Chris again collected a ball upfield and passed to Schillo inside the box who fired in the 2nd notch for Inter. Two mins. later, Schillo returned the favor and sent a pass to Chris inside the box who slammed a hard shot into the net to put the Internationals up 3-0. At the 8 min. mark, Vitalis served a nice right corner kick into the goal mouth where Mati was in perfect position to kick in another goal. At the 17 min. mark, Nathaniel sent a cross from about 22 yds. out on the right into the goal mouth where Vitalis struck in the 5th goal. And, at about the 20 min. mark, after a foul on Vitalis in the box by the Eagles, Vitalis stepped up and fired the PK past the GK for the 6th goal. With about 1min. left in the match, Pat sent a nice through-ball pass upfield to Chris in the box who knocked in the 7th goal and the match ended, 7-0, Internationals. The Eagles were held to 2 shots on goal which were unsuccessful while comm itting 4 fouls (including 1 offsides), while the Internationals launched 8 shots on goal and setup 6 corner kicks while committing 4 fouls (including 1 offsides).
