Game is at 3pm AT (2pm ET, 11am PT) on One Soccer and Fubo.

This is the 1st ever meeting between these 2 clubs.

Not many seats left, place will be nuts.  Looking forward to raising the average league attendance!

Stand up for your Wanderers!

Plan on being drunk by noon - Wander down to the grounds just in time for happy hour. Weather calls for sun and 12 degrees - perfect.

[Copes]

As I so often am... jealous of the Wanderers fans that live in Halifax. Will be watching from Newfoundland, wishing I was there. 

Have a few drinks, pals! Enjoy it.

Best place to watch a game in the league overall- fans, atmosphere, location to downtown, IMO

Forge SSH since year 1 and have had the pleasure to see a few games in HFX over the years

Hope the team is better, fans deserve success

1-0 Halifax

[Lurker]

The wind held that cross up perfectly, great finish.

[narduch]

Collomb with the goal

[Shway]

Horrible defending….man kept him on side, and gave up on the play. But great finish.

Vancouver has not impressed me this year so far. Not unexpected for an expansion team.

They are lucky the quality of the playing surface is hampering Halifax's possession style a little bit.

[Big_M]

omar turns it over near his box and almost turns into a goal for bitar

[narduch]

Hundal ties it up

[Ozzie_the_parrot]

1-1 Hundal. Vancouver coach definitely knew what he was doing with the first half sub. Totally changed the game.

I started watching the match about half way through the first half and Vancouver has absolutely been taking the game to Halifax. Should be up by another goal or 2.

You can split the half in two. First 20 were all Halifax. 

These late half goals are killed though. Every game so far.

Before that it was all Halifax who probably should have had a penalty awarded for a hand ball early in the game.

Crazy how many goals are scored in the five minutes before and after half-time in soccer.

Especially in Wanderers games, haha.

1-1 it ends

[Lurker]

Was that a foul on Fernandez in the box or did he step on a land mine?
