First of all, congrats to Barcelona for their Champions League victory! Fully deserving victors over a somewhat disappointing Manchester United side.
Now back to business. The Champions League final is not the only notable football match taking place today. The Vancouver Whitecaps play the Montreal Impact play the return fixture to help decide Canada’s best soccer [...]

They are the only club in Canada and the United States that has a residency program (where players train full time), paid through the generous pockets of Greg Kerfoot. The team plays in the U-23 USL [...]

Tonight the Whitecaps faceoff against the Rochester Rhinos. (If you notice carefully, their rhino only has one horn, which is not anatomically correct. More fun facts to come).

If you tuned into Toronto FC’s website, you would have seen Toronto completely dominate the Montreal Impact. The 1-0 scoreline greatly understated how Toronto outplayed their opponents with free-flowing football. Montreal were even more thoroughly beaten than we were.

Most blogs use a standard 0-10 ratings system (in the case of Newcastle United, only digits 0-5 are used…too easy?). However, this blog will be different in that no [...]

My name is Lee Haber, and I love soccer. I found out about the Offside blog a few years ago, and I have been enjoying reading the blogs ever since.
I am very interested in the growth of Canadian soccer. What really sparked this interest was when Toronto was awarded an MLS team. I have been [...]
