Canada Soccer Part VII: Copa America Semifinal Edition

[Javaman]

This league has been amazing on kits this year.

Is there a way to tell which kit belongs to which team? I don't follow CPL at all, so all I can do is describe them by title sponsor lol.

Kinda like the CIBC one best, followed by One and then Carlsberg. The VW one probably comes next even if it's a bit generic.

Maple Lodge is meh, while Tim Horton's and Telus are bad.

WestJet is a flat out punishment to my eyes. I can only hope their games aren't broadcast in 4K.

*Edit* I don't think any of the jerseys qualify as "amazing." Sorry to harsh your vibe.

Kamal is heading to Miami. Likely a brief stint for him, sounds like he is moving to Europe this summer at some point.

My boy Kamal gonna set the table for Messi

Alistair Johnston has performed way above expectations for Celtic.

Dream draw for us with the Gold Cup. Easiest group by far.

 

[Tuggy]

Yup, it would have been hard to hand pick an easier group

Awesome man! Don't know if we could ask for better opening day weather!

Watching the League 1 match between Hamilton United and Sigma. Level of play is, well... semi professional but the match has been quite entertaining. 3-3 in the 75th minute. Welshman playing for Sigma so his career seems to have gone straight downhill.

Interesting. Didn't know Welshman ended up at Sigma.... Surprised he couldn't find a job back in the CPL.

Full Schedule for the group here:

 

[robertmac43]

Ollie Basset has left the game with an injury for Atleti. There season will essentially derail if he is injured for nay length of time.

 

[robertmac43]

In wild new. TSS Rovers beat Valour 3-1 last night in the CanChampionship. Massive upset, it was a great watch as well!

TSS get another CPL team, win that and they head to BC Place to take on the Whitecaps.

 

[robertmac43]

Awesome mentality from TSS Rovers coach, great to see these players have someone looking to help them up the pyramid. The man to his right (Polisi) was unreal against Valour and likely gets a look back in the CPL.
