BURNABY — Jessica De Filippo’s own goal lifted the Halifax Tides over the Vancouver Rise 1-0 on Saturday in Northern Super League play.

Halifax defender Naya Cardoza had headed a corner kick toward Vancouver’s net in the 53rd minute when De Filippo deflected it in.

The Tides (5-2-6) snapped a three-match losing skid and moved ahead of the Rise in the NSL standings. The Tides have 17 points, one more than the Rise.

Vancouver (5-1-7) lost despite possessing the ball 57 per cent of the match.
