Voyageurs Cup resumes at the Stade Saputo

This game is going to be a good one. Two rival teams, each in must-win situations. When the Voyageurs Cup resumes tonight in Montreal, both the Impact and the Whitecaps will know that a loss eliminates them from contention for the 2009 CONCACAF Champions League.

One of the nice things about this year's V-Cup is the significant Canadian contributors. When you look at the heart of each team - there's a Canuck. For us, it's obviously DeRo, for the Caps, it's Martin Nash, and for the Impact, it's Sandro Grande. This isn't a second-rate tournament to any of these three.

So then, with TFC 2-0-0 right now, and both their teams facing elimination, how will Grande and Nash lead their respective sides tonight? The stakes are high, and this should be one of the better matches in the brief history of our national championships. Enjoy.
