Vancouver in the CCL is something not many people expected last season, but in a world full of surprises, the usual odd team out in both Cascadia and Canada managed to qualify for a competition they’d not played in since 2017. In the opening round, they backed up their qualification by besting Honduras’ Real Espana 7-3 over the course of two legs.
The lineup coming into this matchup in Honduras, was a bit of a surprise, especially with how many key names were left home. However, given the team was up by five goals coming into the match, there wasn’t a need to put out the ideal starting XI on the pitch.
