I really wanted to catch Vancouver Rise yesterday at Swangard Stadium, but my Fediverse talk conflicted. Oh, well—there will be a next time.
Nevertheless, the Rise actually won again after losing their first three games of the season. So that’s two in a row.
And it looks like the goalie change on he roster worked. 21-year-old Jessica Wulf has been a great netminder and has made truly highlight reel saves. Also, she should be called “The Wulf of Imperial Street”—because that’s where Swangard Stadium is located.
Suddenly, Vancouver Rise are in 3rd place after an awful start to the season.
Vancouver Rise 2-1 AFC Toronto
FINALLY!
Vancouver Rise win a game for the first time this season!
And it took a goalie change with Japanese netminder Jessica Wulf between the pipes. Sometimes you need drastic changes to make things happen.
Also, Jessica De Filippo and Latifah Abdu started together—this team really needs them to get stuff going.
All right! I’m pumped!
Vancouver Rise is facing Ottawa Rapid. The Rise are the #NSL champs. However, they have yet to win a game this season. Meanwhile, Rapid won their home opener but lost their last game.
Of course, I’m cheering on the Rise because they are my girls. I hope Latifah Abdu has come to play because she’s clearly their spark.
Live thread starts now. You can catch the action here:
I’m glad I didn’t tune in for AFC Toronto vs. Halifax Tides. It was a scoreless game.
