Currently, there are only eight Canadians who have got over 1,000 minutes of playing time each in either MLS or NASL this season. To put that in perspective, 1,000 minutes is just a little more than 11 full games.

No word if Tom Hanks will play FCE coach Colin Miller in the Edmonton version of The Terminal.

But it needs to be noted that the Eddies carved out more scoring chances on the day. And, even if those calls had evened out, the Eddies were still another goal to the good.

Cyle Larin tied the MLS record for rookie goals in a season. In just 1,046 minutes of game action, the Brampton, Ont. native has scored 11 times for Orlando City.

But what was striking about Sunday’s game is how much Fury coach Marc Dos Santos learned from this past spring’s Amway Canadian Championship loss to the Eddies, then used that knowledge to craft a game plan that neutralized one of the top offences in the league.

"I'm always thinking about the club longer term; should certain players move on and not sign with the club, we have to always think that the club is more important than any one player or even two or three players. So this is as much building for the future for the club, he's 23, he's young, he's hungry to play and happy to be here."

But, don’t say that we don’t occasionally cave to reader pressure! We’ve crunched the numbers as best as we can (please let us know if you notice we’ve missed a player) and evaluated USL minutes.

And, in our weekly ranking of minutes played by Canadians, Ashtone Morgan was knocked out of top spot. He slips to third, as FCE’s Mallan Roberts is now No. 1 in terms of minutes played.

“The defending was a calamity,” said FCE coach Colin Miller after the match. “We didn’t give ourselves a chance.”

But, in Friday night’s Pan Am Games bronze-medal match, we were reminded that she still has a lot to learn.
