Cavalry FC and FC Edmonton battled to the final whistle in a 2-2 ‘Al Classico’ draw Sunday afternoon at ATCO Field.
Joe Mason and Joe Di Chiara found the net for the hosts while Fraser Aird (PK) and Azriel Gonzalez got on the board for the Eddies as Edmonton fought off countless waves of Cavs pressure and looked bound for a famous win before Mason equalized at the death.
