A new chapter in the history books of the Canadian Championship was written on hallowed Canadian soccer ground.
Playing under the lights of Swangard Stadium, a modest ground dripping with history of its own, Burnaby's semi-pro League1 B.C. outfit TSS Rovers triumphed over Canadian Premier League side Valour FC 3-1 to advance to the quarter-finals of the Battle of the North.
It's a feat that no semi-pro team has ever accomplished in this competition before.
A pair of goals by former CPL-er Matteo Polisi, captaining the champions of L1BC, sandwiched around an Ivan Mejia second, proved the difference on the night, despite an Anthony Novak penalty threatening - or, perhaps, merely teasing - the idea of a comeback late in this hard-fought fight.
Yet, when the final whistle blew, it was head coach Will Cromack's underdogs who celebrated a miracle story, a dream come true, as Canada men's national team manager John Herdman watched on (and likely cheered on, too).
Cup competitions that pit teams from different leagues across the world are special because of nights like this. The magic of the cup is a phenomenon experienced around the world of football.
It's why those associated with the Canadian Premier League celebrate the result, too.
Yes, Valour FC will now lick their wounds. But, as Kristian Jack put it, we must protect, nurture, and celebrate these moments, too.
Congratulations to TSS Rovers - authors of a Canadian Championship legend.

Massive win for TSS Rovers, glad to see upsets in the Voyageurs Cup. Results like this improve the Canadian game across the board, fully deserved by TSS and Polisi was really impressive despite the miss from the spot.
Hopefully TSS can continue their run!
OMG. This is why one game elimination is so great. It allows this type of upset possible.
TSS completely dominated the match!! This is just like the FA Cup!
Love this format, we should include more league 1 clubs
league 1 bc. league 1 ontario, league 1 quebec each get 1
@@wade2bosh they should get atleast 2-3.
League 1 Alberta starting 2024, it would be nice to see 2 from each play a knockout round earlier before the CPL teams play. Like the earlier rounds in FA Cup
One of my beefs with Canadian and US soccer is no relegation or promotion like European football. It would be great for the mid / bottom teams to have incentive as the season goes on. Would be great for the domestic sport. Congrats on the win
WoW shocked
Great night at Swangard!
#19 on Valour was in the box before Novak took that pk. The game should have finished 3-0
Actually 4-0
Valour really got 3 pieced by wal mart employees 😂😂😂
This is why every football league should have promotions and relegations
Football eritage
Man I wish the CPL and League 1 had promotion/relegation system lol
The previous CPL president said they are looking to introduce promotion and relegation in the future. I think currently the league needs to grow, it should expand at least to 16 teams with a decent size fanbase also ligue 1 also has to improve its infrastructure cuz as we see in this match, most of the ligue 1 stadiums looks like parking lots tbh.
WHAT DID I JUST WITNESS!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS TSS ROVERS!!!!
This is what the Canadian Championship is made for! Super happy for the Rovers.
2:26 commentary gives me chills honestly. Well done Jenkins and Dunfield 💯
Very upset to see my team knocked out. They looked terrible though. Congrats to TSS Rovers.
Congrats to TSS Rovers! What a result.
Swangard should have a CPL team surprised Van FC aren't playing there.
wow, unthinkable. cograts TSS Rovers!
TSS Rovers look like a good challenger to Forge for the CPL crown this year.
Oh wait! Valour is the CPL team??!! Never mind.
3-1 (almost 4-1) isn't a miracle, it's a domination.
Exactly
Erik Edwardson was so good!!
Put the Rovers in the CPL
WoW shocked
Erik Edwardson played amazing holy shit
Baquero on that 2nd goal LOL, what the fuck was Valour doing - this wasnt just a cup upset, Rovers actually dominated the game hahaha
If I had money I would invest in Canadian football. So much talent
I think a CPL all star team would finish midtable in the Vanarama Conference at best
what a game
Canadian soccer is getting interesting
Awesome game, so glad we were able to witness it. Keep it going Rovers!
The magic of the cup
5:52 look how far that valor player is in the box when they take that penalty
Tss in cpl!!
Que es estooooo hsjajajajjajajajjaj ❤
No wonder in cup competition always like that, a miracle team from tiny club
O jogo feio, tinham que me contratar o Valour
What the hell is TSS ?
Boy the Rovers play better than my team CF Montreal...
Anyone know if an Indian player can play in this league
Vamos equipo
canada thinks as a nation they have a chance in winning the 2026 world cup without even having a local pro league .what a circus , even california is more independent from the US than canada . why are we playing in MLS ? MLS itself is a clown league .Canada should have its own pro league like everyone else and invest more in infrastructure , only then we can hope to achieve anything in soccer .
Embarrassing for valour, they should fold
Canadian defense is shockingly bad 😅
