On Tuesday night, Vancouver Whitecaps FC and Montreal Impact battle in the second leg of their semifinal Canadian Championship clash at Stade Saputo. The annual tournament showcases our country’s three MLS sides, as well as FC Edmonton of the NASL, and the Ottawa Fury FC of the USL.
The tournament is also a great opportunity for our top clubs to display our nation’s top players, especially with the new Canadian content rule in place, requiring each side to place three Canadians in the starting XI.
For Whitecaps FC, this is an advantage as the side owns some of Canada’s top players.
