The way we were able to push at the end is what impressed me the most. To do that at altitude, down a man and only a few weeks into training for the new season made me so proud to support this club.
I think Cavalry's performance over these two legs is going to definitely get some attention in North American soccer circles. A guy like Warschewski who can hold up play against a team like Pumas and go at their defenders is such a testament to what the CPL is and is becoming. These diamonds in the rough that get a second chance in this league and run with it. Kobza is another great example. Without the CPL, he'd probably be in an office tower somewhere building a career away from the game.
