The firsts came up against a strong Integral Kings side in Queens this past Sunday. From the outset the cold, windy conditions seemed to affect CPR more than the home side and could not find any fluency of play under strong pressure from the Kings. Despite being up against it, in the 7th minute a 20 yard strike from Kevin hit the cross bar and Yannick swept into to head CPR into an early lead. The rest of the half was played mostly with the home team on the offensive, and the Whites can be thankful for Ben being on his game to snuff out opposition chances.
With the wind at their backs CPR managed to show some improvement in the second half, producing more of an attacking threat. Once again they struck again early in the period, when a powerful 30 yard free kick from Yannick was deflected into the path of Javier, who beat the keeper at the second attempt. The victory was sealed with 15 minutes to go and again it was Yannick on the score sheet as he  beat a defender on the edge of the area and slotted a left foot shot into the far corner. Late on the Kings finally beat the impressive Lucki, with a deserved consolation goal bringing the final score to 3-1. 

Team: Ben L, Pat, Mark, Elie, Eli, Javier, Danny, Andy, Kevin, Yannick, Tony - Subs (used): Jay, Dan
