Davies got back into the Whitecaps lineup Saturday and showed us more shimmies and shakes than the Electric Circus. Two jaw-dropping goals and two assists later, Davies and the Whitecaps were celebrating a 4-2 home win over Minnesota United.

But, boy, the two Alberta teams are already sending warning shots to the rest of the league.

But, this year, well, the Ottawa Fury offered very little in terms of fight. After losing 1-0 to Toronto FC in the first leg last week, the Fury were beaten 3-0 by the Reds in Wednesday night’s second leg at BMO Field.

A neat little Canadian drama unfolded in Saturday night’s game between Toronto FC and the Chicago Fire.

“The safety of our fans, employees and supporters is the highest priority for TFC. The events which took place in Ottawa last night involving TFC supporters were unacceptable and needlessly put the safety of others at risk."

Toronto FC will be happy with an efficient 1-0 road win over the Ottawa Fury. The Montreal Impact, meanwhile, might not be so happy with its 1-0 home win over the Vancouver Whitecaps.

So, as consolation goals go, Alphonso Davies’s strike against D.C. United will go down as one of the greatest in MLS history.

It’s been another goal bonanza for Canadians this week in MLS and USL.

Many Canadians in the USL celebrated the week leading up to Canada Day by providing  fireworks of their own.

Unfortunately, there is a major talking point coming out of the game, and it doesn't have to do with the final score. It's the state of left winger/fullback Maxim Tissot’s health.
