[narduch]

Match is at 3pm ET on One Soccer and CBC. Radio on 960 AM in the Toronto area.

Both teams sit on 10 points, 1 back of Forge at the top.

If either team loses they might miss out on the next stage.

Y9 finally have all hands on deck good timing too.  

Let's see if their attack can look more threatening.

Hopefully petrasso can play an hour. Bring ijah on when they are tired. 

[Ingham]

So nervous for this.

God I would love to knock out Cavalry. Sadly we have a horrible record against them. Think they are the only team we've failed to beat so far since the inaugural season. They have such an effective playing style. It's horrible to watch and have the antics that everyone hates but that's why they are amongst the best in the league. That's the kind of things that wins you games and championships.

[Cheeta]

Coo.  He done.

Telfer isn't the same as last year. Become just another player now.

This...but there's a lot pf guys who you can say the same thing. While I was impressed with Pasquotti last year, haven't be this year.

Y9 are not playing with enough intensity.  Do they want to win ?

 

 

[Ansem]

A tie sees both teams through. I they are playing safe and trying not to concede

Brutal.  Too bad this is televised.

 

 

[Ingham]

Not gonna lie, but I like what I'm seeing for the first time in this tournament. We actually look competent in attack for once.

[Winnipeg Fury]

Picking up............we need a goal

 

[Ingham]

Losing Ugarriza is when our season died...

Thoughts on the game (finally got to watch it on replay, couldn’t watch it live).

I hope that wasn’t a career ending injury for Oliver! I didn’t understand what the big deal was until I focused in on that leg more from one of the angles. Youch!

I agree with @Ingham that there were parts of this game when we were actually creating some offence from the run of play, which was nice to see.

The injury time goals conceded or that lack of offensive dynamism are the 2 things you can point to why York 9 is done now. Had we done better on either of those and we are through.

Ingham (the keeper, not the forum member) needs to work on pushing rebounds wide. He seems to spill a fair number of rebounds right in front of the net. I am no keeper so I don’t know what it’s like, but some guys are a lot better at that.
