Halifax Wanderers v. Vaughan Azzurri
Halifax Wanderers FC lead 3 – 2 on away goals after the first leg, and with Vaughan needing at least two goals (and not having much defense) we may well see goals again tonight.

Originally, I was going to keep this brief because, y’know, if Wanderers aren’t playing did anything really happen?
One thing about the Voyageur’s Cup is that it’s never short of drama. This is its 11th year, I’ve watched most of it every year, and I think I’ve seen one, maybe two games that weren’t completely crazy?
I’ve always liked midweek games. Apparently I’m the only one–attendance is regularly brutal at these the world over, and the Canadian Premier League is no exception. Forge drew nearly 6,000 on Wednesday before getting rained on Saturday, which actually isn’t bad at all, but boy does it look rough in a 27,000-seat stadium. Cavalry drew only 2,055.
Another week, another liveblog. This time I’m working off a stream just like the rest of you, as Wanderers head back out on the road for what I’m calling the Military Derby: Valour have built their club around Winnipeg’s military history and Halifax’s logo is based on an old fort (and also a bridge that’s constantly under repair), so why not?
CanPL teams generally do not have the depth, with 23-man rosters, to play back threes very often. So fans of that formation should treasure this past weekend, where we saw them from everyone!
Back in September I took my first trip to the remodeled Wanderers Ground and summed up my experience as a fan watching the AUS derby between Dalhousie and SMU.
The home opener is finally upon us. I’ll be at the stadium from noon onwards, with a liveblog up for you to follow along starting […]
Well, that was fun.
It’s finally here–week 1 in CanPL. Here’s a preview of the weekend ahead for Halifax and the other three teams involved.
