[Voyageur’s Cup Semi Finals] Match Thread: Toronto FC vs Ottawa Fury FC (2-0 aggregate)

Match Thread

Not much use though. Tried to message u/matchthreadder and he sent me a link to a random Latin American match.

Oh well, this game is over anyways.

Excited for the Cavalry vs Montreal match now. While I love our history with Montreal, I’d love to see a Cavalry vs TFC final.

Holy shit Okello is a big boy.

He literally stepped over a guy, didn't fall over him, but stepped over him..

Noble Okello is very impressive. Looking forward to follow his progression to CanMNT.

I said this on r/tfc but Ottawa plays like FIFA Pro Clubs team. No organization and just hoping individual skill wins.

They were fortunate enough to get through Halifax. If they were on the other side of the draw they'd be out already.

I know it's our privilege as top seed but we always get the minnows in the first round we play.

They did a piss-poor job with the bracket. All the teams aside from MLS should've been in Round 1, and have MLS come in Round 2 in the quarters. As the CPL expands and develops more into a proper top tier league, the MLS-byes in the early rounds should be wiped out.

It'd make a better tournament in a romance of the cup type way, but it's clear this format was designed for more CPL teams to play more games. And the best ones gave "higher" teams a challenge.

They're going through a bad patch now too. This will be their 4th game without scoring a goal if things don't change. They were playing much better earlier in the season. Don't think it would make a difference in the result but might have been two closer matches.

The reffing is very ‘shake hands and make up’ like this is youth soccer, it’s kind of endearing but also weird to see.

Absolutely love it, feels very Canadian.

Fraser is the future. Would love to see him take over for Bradley next year.

Happy to see Okello with a decent amount of time. Thought he played well. Hopefully this encourages Vanney to test him out more in the future, but I doubt it.

Bradley spot is locked up and Vanney isn't going to give it up sadly, but man I want to see Fraser there more. At the very least, at least let him play as a back up CB for Gonzalez and Mavinga. He was originally a CB and he played well there against DC United. No harm letting him play there once in a while imo. Can't be worse than Zaveleta and Ciman.

Will the CanPL fans now stop for a little with the swarm tactics of downvotting anyone who doesn't agree that this first year league is clearly amazing quality and developed and knocking on MLS door? I doubt it. The irony of living up to their sycophant reputation will be entirely lost on them.
