Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 23/NASL Week 18/USL Week 21 By Steven Sandor Posted on August 15, 2016 Comments Off on Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 23/NASL Week 18/USL Week 21 0 1,136 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Cyle Larin Cyle Larin scored for Orlando City Sunday and played the full 90 minutes in a 2-2 draw with the Chicago Fire. Larin continues to lead all Canadians in either MLS or NASL in terms of minutes played. As well, Tesho Akindele came on as a sub and scored for FC Dallas. As we get closer to Canada’s two massive September World Cup qualifiers, it’s heartening to see Canadians finding the back of the net. But it’s not all rosy. After surging earlier in the season, the Montreal Impact aren’t giving minutes to Canadians. The team didn’t give a single minute to a Canadian player in this weekend’s loss to the New York Red Bulls. There was some big news at the USL level, as Canadians Tyler Pasher and Amer Didic got called up from Swopw Park Rangers to join Sporting Kansas City for the MLS parent club’s upcoming CONCACAF Champions League match. The pair are featured in the current issue of Plastic Pitch (issue 9). As well, this week we saw the number of Canadians who have played in USL this year pass the century mark. Yes, more than 100 Canadian players have appeared in USL matches. So, the USL policy of allowing Canadian players to be treated as domestics — no matter if they play on Canadian or American teams — does have a clear influence on job opportunites in North American pro soccer for this country’s players. In NASL and MLS, Canadians are only domestics on the Canadian clubs — but Americans are considered domestics on both sides of the border.
