Mailula boy played very well om happy for you
Mailulaa 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 the boy played very well he was involved in 4 goals
Great support for Simcoe County today, great to see grassroots support for soccer in Canada! Wishing them well this League One season!
I love that there is a completion of professional Canadian teams with in different leagues. What would be even "COOLER" is a ranking system in Canada similar to the UK where teams are promoted or relegated. This type of system promotes club and player to advance
I would love to see that too eventually. Unfortunately, I don't think the pro league and clubs are quite self-sustainable yet.
For now they are focused on developing the CanPL and building the semi-professional leagues in all provinces first.
I know Ligue1 Ontario has a promotion/relegation system implemented with 3 tiers.
I definitively agree -
Promotion-Relegation is the best system👍
Simcoe isn't a fully professional team in this case, but pro/rel system will not work in Canada for the foreseeable future, if not ever. Reason being:
The English football system has been around for 130 years and is 5000x more sophisticated. Across the top 4 tiers of English football there is over 90 pro teams.. Canada only has 8 + 3 MLS clubs. Its not even remotely close, and no where near sustainable financially for a pro team in the first division in Canada to be relegated, the owners would fold the team immediately and its back to square one.
You can watch a 4th tier league game in England with 10,000 fans watching in the stadium, consistently .. CPL (first tier) can barely manage to get 2-3,000 people to most of the games. In England football is a religion and cultural pillar, communities support it to the fullest extent, there even the grandmas are die hard supporters of teams... in Canada, people care about Hockey, baseball, basketball, then soccer, etc. And even then, they don't even care about "hockey, basketball" etc more, they only support the huge franchises.
First and foremost, pro sports are sustained through the community fans and support which is almost impossible to garner a cultural revolution to match that of European or South American football (for example).
It just is not realistic in Canada therefore everyone knows its just not worth the talk. Its not even a talking standpoint for the MLS because MLS is based on franchise ownership, relegation would mean they are putting their franchise owners in financial dismay. I hope that helps 👍
@@sowaveysuyat Nah, disagree with everything you said. That's some Timbits Soccer mentality/excuse. The real reason why pro/rel won't work for lower tier teams is the size of the country and the travel costs.
@@TheWoollyFrog I could care less what you think.. You can disagree all you want... face the facts of the data at hand.. Canadian football system is lightyears away from being able to sustain a pro/rel system across multiple tiers.
You think its just "travel costs" but thats just a cope, if every lower tier team had the same support that 4th tier teams in England did, travel cost doesn't mean shit because the very fact of being "PRO" means the organization can sustain itself hence why it has became fully professional.. duh... everything you talking about is the real lame excuses.
Travel costs is an absolutely minuscule issue when a fully professional league has multiple huge sponsorship deals and packaged deals for travel.. one of CPLs major official sponsors is WESTJET....its common sense... use it sometime.
The fact that the Rovers got so many close chances should be taken as a Big positive takeaway from this game. I am kinda sad that they were kept off the board.
I love the Canadian Championship. It is sooo cool! I would love to see some more upsets.
I am so happy for mailula 🇿🇦🇿🇦 the boy play very well
Mailula🔥🔥🔥🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
First round, Ontario/Quebec league teams should be playing CPL. I was happy to see the Reds win but, this was a little cruel.
I agree. MLS is just too far away from a semi-pro team
@@sowaveysuyat not with the right coach
@@manme6051uh yeah they are. Jose Mourinho wouldn’t be enough to help
@@manme6051 buddy semi pro in canada means they have full time jobs. the lowest paid player on TFC earns more than the entire squad of Simcoe. thats just scratching the surface
Bro most league one Ontario teams don’t even practice everyday
This really shows you the difference between MLS and Semi pro levels!!
It's the pace of the game. No different from a pro marathon runner and a hobbyist. They both can run, probably keep same pace for the 1st 3-5km and then see ya.
Yo make this game 2 x 25min and score would be closer.
@@dannyk847 Well if they had less time to score, im sure they would score less. I still think TFC showed levels in early stage of game. Which is understandable, these guys are not MLS level, but is always good to see the different levels of sport competing against each other.
Good game Cashius my boy, keep it up.
Number 10 on simcoe was impressive but their keeper is fucking shocking
For their level, Simcoe weren't horrible.
Good job Toronto. I hope they win this championship.
Playing a bunch of plumbers....
Well done spicer
Mailula! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
If relegation and promotion was a thing, money would flow
Only if tfc could do this to mls teams
mailula rocks!!!!! ---- eish wena
Still not impressed with TFCs defending, how do you give semi-pros 4 clear chances and you only score 5, with more clinical finishing TFC would have been 2 down in the first 20. Great potential from the front 3 though, thoroughly impressed there.
What a thrashing
its expected.. fully pro vs guys who have day jobs
The kind TFC gets every week in the MLS...
@@TheWoollyFrogtake another look at the mls standings…
@@TheWoollyFrogbros living in the past
So why exactly is Mailula not playing more often, from what I see here he probably the best player for Toronto.
A start AND goal from cash money, say it ain't so.
18 minutes to score a goal? MLS can't even be considered a retirement league anymore. Damn
Bro Arsenal scored Chelsea in 4 minutes the other day
What is your argument here ?
Professional tfc hater. Prb a salty Quebec fan 🤡
@@josephp9141 Watched them from the moment they were founded
We all know why Toronto is playing a League1 team lol
Because it’s the first round?
@@Worldsportstalk24 because they drew them but also they suck lol
@@soggydog1212 ok dude
Mailula
TFC should have a bye into the QF. This is absurd.
well said
On the plus side, it gives playing time to our depth. But yeah.. the level of quality is just ocean apart.
great opportunity for Simcoe, shows the boys the level they need to get to, defenders need to be on the man when in the penalty area, those are very poor defending mistakes
They did last year, but they didn't earn it this year. If they want a bye next year they have to earn it with their results on the field. And besides, I hate the arrogance that teams shouldn't have to play lower level teams. It's killing the US Open Cup, I don't want it to kill the Canadian Championship. If other leagues felt the same way, Liga MX would have stopped going to CONCACAF Champions League/Cup years ago and would never have agreed to the Leagues Cup. Where would MLS and TFC be in that scenario?
@@kentmartin9289 It's not arrogance dude. This is a semi-pro team. The quality is obvious on the field. TFC isn't even a great MLS team and demolished them with their bench.
I would love Canadian soccer to get to the level where teams can compete with the 3 MLS teams, but we are not there. I do agree that it's good from the Canadian soccer perspective. From the TFC perspective I think it's a waste of resources.
League one. Lol
I really do not see how they are going to grow soccer with playing pros vs semi pros (joes). Fans not even interested, I really do hope Canada soccer does one thing of intelligence as this Pro soccer competition is getting worse year by year. A lot could be done better. A playoff between the provincial leagues, a competition (knockout, 3 rounds) between the CPL teams, a regular season that is interesting and actually competitive (28 games and 3 eliminated is not competitive). It is a shame when the players are doing there best but Canada Soccer is just dropping the ball everywhere.
I guess you didn't see that Simcoe County had 2000 fans in the away section for this game? This game may very well have grown their fan base (I believe their home field has a 1000 spectator capacity). And just last year the semi pro team from BC (TSS Rovers) beat a pro team (Valour) and Ontario's semi pro team (Vaughan Azzuri) lost only 2-0 to CF Montreal. We shouldn't be so scared of an occasional 5-0 game. Just this week Chelsea lost 5-0 to Arsenal in the English Premier League. Is that a big problem for English soccer?
In my opinion it's a great competition. Cavalry and Vancouver had a good game on Tuesday. Now Cavalry is matched up against the Whitecaps in the quarter finals with a chance to eliminate the Whitecaps again (they did so in 2019). York and Forge will face each other for a chance to play CF Montreal. Forge has taken Montreal to penalties in the past, and York narrowly lost to Montreal in 2019. Will either of them be able to pull off an upset this season? This is way more compelling than when it was a 3, 4 or 5 team tournament.
@@kentmartin9289 To each his own
If they bring 2,000 then TFC fans could give a crap about the game. Beating valour is no big thing. I live in Winnipeg that team is a joke. It is boring football, competitions are boring and FIFA is just making tournaments for money not to improve the sport. I only care for Champions league and premier soccer (England). World cup is watered down trash now. Only interesting in the final 16.
@@pictureofmyjunk2279 ah I see. You said in your first comment "I really do not see how they are going to grow soccer..." and it looks like that is true. Soccer grows from soccer fans supporting their local teams. If people like you in Winnipeg supported Valour better (rather than just English or European teams) then they could get the money needed to make the team better. Perhaps invest in better scouting, maybe an academy to train young players, etc. But if you only want to watch the top 1% of pro soccer, then don't expect anything outside that top 1% to grow.
@@pictureofmyjunk2279 Bro, according to what you've said, you're not a soccer fan at all. Anyone who claims that the World Cup is boring and only shows interest in two soccer competitions cannot be considered a true football follower. I attended the game at the stadium last night as a fan of Toronto, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was particularly remarkable that players from the opposing team brought their fans to Toronto to support their local team, dreaming of defeating a big-name opponent.
Atrocious goalkeeping from Simcoe. Either come and (try and) claim it or stay home and set yourself. Every time he’s trying to make a flying block and gets beat with ease.
C'mon dude have some respect.. to be hyper critical of a semi pro team vs MLS team is just pointless. 1 or 2 errors from any player is never going to be the determining factor for this matchup. The lowest paid TFC first team player has a bigger salary than all of this team combined. Who cares if the goalie made an error in judgement on this stage.
Go warm up, you're getting subbed in next.
@@sowaveysuyat The comment I made has absolutely nothing to do with the technical ability of the keeper (which I'm sure he has) and everything to do with tactical side.
To reiterate, he should have either come to claim the cross or simply dropped and set himself. If the attacker puts in the corner, you clap your hands and move on. His feet are all wrong in most of the goals conceded. He's never set properly and you can't expect to make a stop if you're constantly in motion. Even being out of position but set is better than in position and not set.
This is literally school boy stuff that we should expect to be engrained. If we all have a vested interest in Canadian football getting better then you have to demand more.
@@TheWoollyFrog Exactly, let's see how you do out there, pretty much could be you.
@@bonging40s No, seriously, he isn't professional, so you are in next time.
Both 💩 Teams
Disney Cup....Mickey Mouse Tournament..
Explains why you're watching it...
