Baquero makes his return to the xi, while Polisi debuts.

I'm no expert on Pacific FC, but this looks like a heavily rotated squad:

You are correct

[davey_twelve]

Just 3 of those guys are regular starters. Very obviously giving priority to the Whitecaps match.

mukumbilwa young sellouf toussaint have started most games

[Big_M]

will be interesting to see if the in game coaching of valour will be better or worse without dos santos

[Wippersuna]

This might be the sparsest crowd I’ve seen yet. 

[jonovision]

No Samake, Haynes in. Very bad news. Possibly fatal to chances.

[Big_M]

oh boy haynes and de brienne on the same side...could be disastrous defensively...ben ''this is my show'' hoskins in the middle...should be a fun one lol

Playing a Saturday game during the May 24 weekend was asking for trouble.

Why is it Canadians can't do the "who are you?" chant right?

Is there a right way to so such a stupid chant?

[Big_M]

daniels beats haynes to get a clear chance and at the same time haynes pulls a muscle...disaster

[Ozzie_the_parrot]

This game is a cure for insomnia.

pxp who sounds new is calling baskett ''gaskett'' lol

[Wippersuna]

There’s actually a decent number of people on the camera side today due to it being bring your dog day. Lots of people trying to get out of the Sun too based on how many dogs are actually over here. 
 

Still a small crowd overall though.

Wondering who it is.

[jonovision]

Valour at moments looking suspiciously like a team playing their 9th different guy at CB. Cursed position.

[jonovision]

I hate to say this, but Valour need a Ponce for Novak sub. Everything he does is so slow.

[Cheeta]

Bit surprising it's nil-nil.  Goals in it if Valour would quit pricking around at the wrong times.

Daniels is making a proper pain of his self.

OK crowd actually, nothing grand but was expecting worse.  Couple of hundred with their mutts on the north stand.  Go get 'em Rover!
