Cavalry FC extended its undefeated streak to six games on Sunday, defeating Valour FC 4-0 at ATCO Field. This victory marked the team’s sixth consecutive match without a loss.
Recent Success
Cavalry’s recent success began with a dominant performance against Edmonton Scottish United SC in the first round of the Canadian Championship on April 29, where they won 6-0. Since then, they have maintained their momentum, securing three consecutive wins in Canadian Premier League matches:
- Defeated York United FC (2-1)
- Defeated HFX Wanderers FC (3-0)
- Defeated Pacific FC (4-0)
In between these victories, Cavalry drew 1-1 against Vancouver FC to advance to the second round of the Canadian Championship, showcasing their ability to remain competitive even when not at their best.
Impressive Performance
Throughout this six-game undefeated streak, Cavalry has outscored its opponents by an impressive margin of 20-2. Their offense has been particularly potent, scoring multiple goals in several matches.
Coach Tommy Wheeldon Jr. expressed pride in the team’s performance, stating, "We’re taking it one game at a time and focusing on our next opponent."
Upcoming Match
Cavalry will look to continue its winning ways as they face York United again this weekend at Spruce Meadows Sportsplex. This matchup promises to be exciting, featuring two teams with contrasting styles and strengths. Cavalry has been playing excellent soccer lately but will face stiff competition from York United, who are seeking revenge after being beaten by Pacific last week.
Player Highlights
- Myer Bevan: Scored two goals in the match against Valour.
- Raphael Adjetey: Added another goal late in stoppage time.
- Julian Buescher: Scored with a header, contributing to the team’s dominant performance.
- Marco Carducci: Made his first start since returning from injury, making several key saves.
Valour struggled throughout much of the game but managed some quality chances despite being down early. Coach Michael Silva praised his players’ effort, stating, "Our boys gave everything they had out there today."
Valour’s Struggles
Despite facing adversity, Valour continued to push forward until the final whistle. They managed four shots on target during stoppage time alone. Silva noted that if they had capitalized on earlier chances, the outcome might have been different.
With no points earned from Sunday’s loss, Valour finds itself near the bottom of the CPL standings, currently tied with HFX Wanderers FC. HFX sits just above them after earning three points last weekend, largely due to Jordan Murray’s hat trick against Atlético Ottawa.
League Overview
Atlético Ottawa remains near the bottom of the standings following another disappointing result, losing 3-1 against HFX Wanderers FC. However, they hold onto hope due to upcoming fixtures, including home games against both Vancouver Whitecaps II and Forge FC.
Vancouver Whitecaps II continues its strong run atop the CPL standings, with consistent performances across all fronts, including defense, where no opponent has managed more than one goal against them since opening day.
