Kaylee Hunter, AFC Toronto power past Ottawa Rapid FC for return to NSL final

OTTAWA — Kaylee Hunter had yet another two-goal game to power AFC Toronto past Ottawa Rapid FC 4-0 in the second leg of their Northern Super League semifinal on Saturday.

Toronto won the semifinal on aggregate 8-2 to return to the NSL final. Hunter also scored twice in last week’s 4-2 win over Ottawa as Toronto looks to redeem itself after its 2-1 loss to Vancouver in last year’s final.

Hunter scored in the sixth and 29th minute to quickly get the visitors going on Saturday.

Lena Silano put Toronto ahead 3-0 going into halftime with her goal in the 44th minute. Nikayla Small then sealed it in the 52nd minute.

Toronto will face the winner of Montreal Roses FC and Vancouver Rise FC from the other semifinal.

The Roses lead the defending champion Rise 3-0 on aggregate going into the second leg of their semifinal on Sunday.
