About to watch the Canadian Premier League Final between Atlético Ottawa and Cavalry FC.
Snow everywhere. Full blizzard. A championship match on a frozen pitch.
No clue how these players are going to function in this. Feet slipping. Ball skidding. Visibility optional.
It will be chaos. It will be entertaining. And I want zero injuries. -

I think the reported temperature at the time was 2º F with a wind chill of -12º F.
Ridiculous. There were, and are, safe indoor stadiums where they can play. It's crazy to risk the safety of the players.

Fight Back or Move Over It could be fun if players were actually dressed for the weather.

@atomicpoet This may be one of the best games I've watched all year. I can't believe how many people are still in the stands. It's insane but so much fun.
