I Imagine there will be a lot of rotation for Pacific with the Whitecaps game so recent. Hopefully at least MacNaughton and Hojabrpour start as they were rested last week against Cavalry.

I find games at Starlight to be almost unwatchable with the camera angle. I really wish they’d find some way to fix it because outside of that I love the venue.

Seems to be more people than usual today, love to see it. Hope the official attendance supports my point though!

Bad Valour are back. Gave away a total freebie.

The commentators' voice just died there. So many cracks 😂

God, every goal this guys voice just dies.

The worst any CPL team has looked in any match this season.

Pacific have proven here they have plenty of depth. Very smart choice to rest their starters, because they probably couldn't walk for a day after that Whitecaps game.

There's actually been a lot of rotation among the midfield 3 all season so no one's really coming in cold for those spots. Campbell's been looking really good lately so there's some coverage in Bustos' absence, just need Blasco's finishing to be better and the front 3 will be pretty deep. The worry is the backline, aside from TMG there isn't much depth there.
