Great run from him the second half to set up Berahino who should have done better. And then sadly missed an absolute sitter. Looked fit and confident from the highlights though. Can only imagine he starts banging in some goals soon.

Sounds like he’s heading on the right path. And we are here supporting him every step of the way!

Been following CPL by watching all the OneSoccer game highlights but admittedly haven’t watched a full match (seen a couple second half’s here and there type of thing). Out of curiosity from the guys who have followed very closely, what’s an All CPL Starting 11 look like? What about a All- Canadian CPL Starting 11 look like? Know enough about the guys who have really stood like Borges, Campbell, Pasquotti, Camargo, etc Apologies in advance if this has been talked about which I’m sure it has but too lazy rummage through the thread

If he’s going to continually be playing at the highest level out of all our CBs, then of course, no-brainer to have him in the mix. We need as much help as we can get back there.

Loving his trajectory. With the head he has on his shoulders, the sky’s the limit.

And does anyone know what the reason why these boys aren’t playing for Canada is?

Sounds like he impressed!

Incredible matches. Very happy for the performance the CPL teams put in. Hoping for some upsets in the 2nd leg.

I agree with this and figured this would be the big issue with this format. 😕

*ignorant North American sports fan* So what does Calvary play for now?

Was at the game tonight. Definitely played well, had a lot of positive touches, drove the touchline and put in some dangerous balls. Def lots to improve upon but great to see overall and lots to be excited about. Fraser also impressed me. Loads of composure, demanded the ball, and succeeded with a lot of high risk passes. Looked well beyond his years and I liked how he made an assertive gesture towards Pozuelo at one point demanding Poz to give him a better option.

I really do think Oso's TFC experience playing in the CCL was absolutely invaluable. To go down to Mexico, play in hostile atmospheres, being the underdog and to shine/outperform the "better" opposition, that's something that has clearly given him confidence and an undeniable swagger. To rise above the old-adage and prove that it is possible; I'm sure he has lots to share with his new and younger Canadian teammates.

Just all the years of cheering for a Canadian team that couldn’t score, even against weak opposition. Feels. good.

Feel like this is spot on. I am a fan of Piette, I like his football IQ and I feel like he is a solid member of our National Team. But he plays an integral position where you have a lot of important touches and you need a lot of trust in a player playing as the #6. I still feel like he’s a little shaky with his decision-making and the thought of him playing against a pressing team like Mexican frightened me. My gut tells me that Kaye is the better choice at this very moment (behind Atiba).

I would imagine Borjan gets to decide whether he would like to start or not.
