Tactically they unleashed something the CPL has not yet seen. Out of possession it was a pretty typical 4-4-2 with Carmago dropping deeper to help provide an extra man in the midfield. That was really important as Daley man marked Bekker and took him pretty much completely out of the game.
Then with the ball it became a 3-2-4-1 with Shome playing beside Trafford at the base of the midfield and Daley pushing high with Camargo to form a midfield box. This created an overload against Forge and always meant there was a free man to receive a pass. They also tried Daley a few times over the top to really keep Forge guessing.
Ntignee was a monster and Akio really grew into the game and his role. Add Bevan back into the mix and that is a scary attack! Something we haven’t seen from Cavalry
I think Kobza is going to be MLS bound in the next year or two. He’s Waterman 2.0 but with more composure. And Klomp is becoming the best defender in the league. They trust him so much to break the opponents press.
I want to know where Camargo and Trafford found their new legs. They were everywhere
