It was a special day at Starlight Stadium, as Pacific FC and FC Edmonton met in CPL action on Friday.
Coming as part of National Truth and Reconciliation Day, Pacific FC had a lengthy and powerful Indigenous-driven pre-game display, one that served as a good reminder of the importance of the holiday.
Along with a celebration for soon-to-be-retired Pacific captain, Jamar Dixon, who was playing his final regular season home match, it meant for an energetic crowd, one that was eager to cheer for their team.
Which they’d certainly get to do on the day, as Pacific ended up nabbing a 1-0 win over Edmonton, one that all but puts them in the playoffs, keeping their dream of repeating as CPL champions alive.
Here are your sights and sounds from Pacific FC versus FC Edmonton.
