Ottawa, ON – On the first leg of the Canadian Championship semi finals, The Vanney Boys do not under estimate the great group leas by Nikola Popovic.
For Ottawa Fury FC, it is very important to take advantage of the local condition, score and be well rooted on the defensive line. Toronto only count with Ayo Akinola as forward.
The Black and Reds are currently in a good place in the USL Championship and one of the big challenges is to win these two legs to get an opportunity to become champions for the first time of the Voyageurs Cup.
On the flip side, Greg Vanney recognizes that his opponent has nothing to lose and he did travel to the Capital City with the company of a few players who are knowledgable and have experience in this kind of game, like the return of the awesome savior, originally from Syracuse New York, Alex Bono will garding the arc of the Reds.
Jonathan Osorio, Tsubasa Endo, Justin Morrow and Richy Laryea figure between the guys who will be part of a group complemented by TFC II. Also a great opportunity to see a couple of debuts, very probable to see Noble Okello appear in the starting 11 with The Cancerbero, Alex Bono.
Surely for Greg Vanney it is not easy to make a list with 11 players for two parallel competitions, his role in the MLS depends on the results of Columbus Crew SC and Montreal Impact FC.
The inclusion of the roster from the first division could be forced for the second leg at BMO Field if Fury get the result in their favour tonight at Landsdowne Park.
