They've done it! For the first time, Atlético Ottawa have won the North Star Cup, as they defeated Cavalry FC 2-1 in a snowy #CanPL final thanks to a brace from David Rodríguez
Quite the spectacle, between the snow, some worldies, and now a new winner - a 2025 Final we won't soon forget

Really proud of his one for CanPL.ca:
The last dance of ‘El Toro’ graces the CPL Final. Alberto Zapater is retiring.

All year long, it's been the David Rodríguez, Sam Salter and Ballou Tabla show with Atlético Ottawa
But quietly, there's been a player holding everything together in midfield - Manny Aparicio
I dove into Atlético Ottawa's midfield heartbeat ahead of the #CanPL Final

It's the #CanPL Final this weekend! Looking forward to tomorrow's match between Atlético Ottawa and Cavalry FC. Huge game for both, as someone will win a trophy and book a CCC spot, and another will leave empty handed
I looked at 3 reasons Cavalry could be that team

Dayne St. Clair… penalty taker?
The #CanMNT GK has had himself a first round series when it comes to PKs, as Minnesota won a 2nd shootout in 3 games to advance to the conference semi-finals
Much like the first shootout, DSC had some help from the post, but this time he scored the winning pen, too👀

The Vancouver Rise are heading to the NSL Final!!
What a dramatic win from the Rise over the Ottawa Rapid in the NSL semi-finals, as they went down 2-0 in the match and 3-2 on aggregate despite a bright start, but Holly Ward tied things at 3-3, and then the Rise got the job done in a shootout

Big news for Jonathan David, who was named Concacaf's 2024-2025 Men's Player of the Year

For dual-national sickos, today's #CanMNT squad announcement was a welcome gift, as Alfie Jones, Owen Goodman and Marcelo Flores are all in
Here's what each could bring to the CanMNT, and what they say about Jesse Marsch's short-term plans... and long-term ones, too👇

There's not 1, not 2, but 3 dual nationals in the latest #CanMNT squad, as Alfie Jones and Owen Goodman are in, while Marcelo Flores is in as a training player
Jones and Flores we knew were coming, but Goodman is a HUGE coup - Jesse Marsch previously thought he wouldn't be eligible anytime soon

The #CanM17's have made history, picking up their 1st World Cup win in a 2-1 result vs. Uganda
It was a scrappy comeback, with an 88' corner from Elijah Roche and a 90+8' penalty from Marius Aiyenero, but it's a good start to the tournament
After the #CanW17's run last month, can they follow suit?

News coming out today from TSN's Matthew Scianitti that Alfie Jones looks set to be included in the #CanMNT squad this week
Good time to bump my piece on what Jones could bring to the #CanMNT, why Jesse Marsch has targeted him, and the shifting reality surrounding Canadian dual nationals

Some interesting news came out last night (h/t @joshuakloke.bsky.social) about the #CanMNT's next prospective dual national - CB Alfie Jones
So what to make of Jones?
I dove in for OS, looking at what Jones can bring and the shifting reality for dual nationals like him
