Small, Hunter lift NSL-leading AFC Toronto to 2-1 win over Montreal Roses

Nikayla Small and Kaylee Hunter scored one goal apiece in the first half as AFC Toronto extended its lead atop the Northern Super League with a 2-1 win over Montreal Roses FC on Saturday in Montreal. Small opened the scoring with a tidy finish in the 24th minute after Sarah Stratigakis found her with a well-timed through ball on the counterattack for Toronto (10-5-1). Hunter then blasted a shot from well beyond the 18-yard box in the 37th, doubling the lead with her team-high ninth goal of the season. Stephanie Hill pulled one goal back for Montreal (7-4-4) when she connected on a corner kick from Latifah Abdu in first-half injury time, but Toronto hung on for the win. Toronto, with 31 points in 16 games, now holds six more points than second-place Montreal in the NSL standings. Montreal, however, has one game in hand. The two teams now have two wins each in head-to-head matchups. They'll meet once more in Toronto on Oct. 18, the final match of the regular season.
