Pacific FC won a second consecutive match to begin their title defence, defeating Valour FC 3-2 at Starlight Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Marco Bustos contributed three assists, setting up goals for Manny Aparicio and Alejandro Diaz in the first half, while an own goal from Kunle Dada-Luke brought Valour back within one. A penalty save from Jonathan Sirois to deny Bustos meant that it was only 2-1 entering the break, but Josh Heard made it three 10 minutes after play resumed, again set up by Pacific’s number 10.

Moses Dyer made it 3-2 with a stoppage time penalty, but it would be the last kick of the game in a losing effort from Valour.

Here are some sights and sounds from Langford, BC.

You thought three goals and a red card were enough from this first half?

How about a LATE penalty for @PacificFCCPL, ANOTHER Jonathan Sirois save from the spot, a GOAL by Matthew Baldisimo… and then the referee calling it a off? 🤯
