Looking forward to this one. Both times these two met earlier this year Cavalry scored first which is never fun as the game really gets slowed down. Aparicio didn't play in their last meeting and I'm hoping he's big today since last week he was sub-par. Cavalry's attack has been strong lately but the midfield might not be as cohesive with some of the recent roster shifts. No Trafford but sounds like Shome travelled with the team.

what the heck is giguere doing??? he has the perfect chance to equalize with the last play of the game but he so cheaply puts it over

[Cheeta]

Has to said, Pacific have no one else to blame but themselves.

Gotta tip my hat to Calgary tonight, they came to play. Aird's goal was very impressive. Pacific had a horrid first half. Hopefully that game was a wake-up call for them.

Makes a refreshing change to see a CanPL player 100% comfortable in taking a shot first time with his left foot to score a goal. Guess that's part of why Fraser Aird was provided plenty of opportunities by Rangers, the CMNT and the Whitecaps earlier in his career.
