Fakunle’s golden boot lifts UNBC past UFV Cascades in men’s soccer

Tofa Fakunle just wanted one more shot at glory with the UNBC Timberwolves this regular season.

On Monday, he got that in spades scoring the game-winning goal against the University of Fraser Valley Cascades in a 1-0 victory.

The make-up game was played in Abbotsford.

Tyrone Venhola made three saves in the victory for UNBC.
