Game is at 7pm local time (9pm ET) on One Soccer. 

Cavalry eliminated Vancouver in the 2019 Voyageurs Cup.

The winner will face Pacific or York.

No 17 year old goalie tonight.

I feel like their line up might be slightly wrong. Brown on the left seems odd. But I guess we'll see.

Just me or does the main stand look about half empty?

Yea thought the same thing myself. Just assumed it would be a sell out with an MLS side coming to town. Looks like a nice night as well.

I wish we could do this every week. Great atmosphere at Spruce Meadows.

Maybe doesn't help that Cavalry's ticket prices are unusually high.

Some nice shots by both sides there. Mussi was the one I thought would miss and sure enough it was saved.

It was a brilliant shot by Bevan and Cavalry looked better in the 2nd half, but Vancouver had by far the higher number of better scoring opportunities and couldn't quite put the ball in the back of the net until the end.

Does anyone have an attendance number for this game?  Maybe someone who was there recalls it being announced?  Thanks.
