Fury fans can now exclaim it without reservation: “Top of the league!”.
A crowd of 5,175 fans braved the oppressive heat and humidity to see their club take three points against the Carolina Railhawks and climb to the summit of the NASL combined table. The winning goal came deep into six minutes of stoppage time off the foot of Carl Haworth, who netted his second goal in as many matches.
Ottawa opened the scoring in the 20th minute as Aly Hassan scored his first goal as a member of the Fury in his first start.
