Uhh...are they really thinking these matchups through?

Auckland City features former Cavalry FC player Myer Bevan.

Though maybe that should be current Cavalry FC player as I'm not sure he ever actually transferred to them and is apparently able to play for them as they are an amateur team.

Calgary referee Drew Fischer getting the nod to ref PSG vs Botafogo tonight, and Michael Barwegen (Coaldale) as the AR.


Pretty cool to see. Drew is a fantastic ref and a great human. Well deserved.

Botofogo won 1-0! South Americans have come to play in this tournament.

Real Oviedo has gained promotion to La Liga. Not all that interesting, but I just saw that Santi Cazorla is still playing for them, at 40 years old ... that the man is still able to walk is amazing (he contracted gangrene after an Achilles injury at Arsenal, narrowly avoided amputation and endured a dozen surgeries and a skin graft), but to play professional football at 40 after all of this is incredible. Good for him.
