CPL TOTW Week 3

Goalkeeper

Marco Carducci (Cavalry FC) 

The Cavalry keeper made some game-saving stops in his side’s 1-1 draw with Vancouver FC on Friday, including an incredible diving effort on a cross-goal strike from Alejandro Díaz.

Defenders

Zachary Fernandez (Valour FC)

In his Valour FC debut, Fernandez was brilliant down the right flank. He had a great chance to open his account for the season, but was especially impressive on the defensive side of the ball, winning six of seven duels, four tackles and making a stunning five interceptions.

Noah Abatneh (Atlético Ottawa)

On Saturday, Abatneh scored the winner in a thrilling contest against his former side, York United. It was the highlight of an outstanding performance, where the 20-year-old central defender completed 91.5 per cent of his passes, won eight of nine duels, including all three in the air and made three interceptions.

Allan Enyou (Vancouver FC)

Playing as a central defender who covered at left-back when Elage Bah moved forward, Enyou proved critical to Vancouver FC’s defensive effort against Cavalry. He made eight clearances and won two tackles, while winning three of five duels.

Wesley Timoteo (Halifax Wanderers)

Timoteo scored a stunning strike to open the scoring in Halifax on Saturday. He was dangerous throughout, finishing the match against Pacific with four shot attempts, and a chance created. He also won six of 12 duels and made five clearances.

Midfielders 

Emrick Fotsing (Vancouver FC)

The 17-year-old midfielder in just his second start was one of the best players on the pitch against Cavalry FC on Friday. He won possession eight times, seven of 10 duels and completed 22 of 28 passes.

Manny Aparicio (Atlético Ottawa)

Aparicio scored an absolute screamer against York United on Saturday. He got stuck in during a fierce physical battle in midfield, with 15 duels contested, and four tackle attempts, as well as four fouls.

Giorgio Probo (Halifax Wanderers)

Probo makes a second consecutive appearance in the CPL team of the week after another match where he was a key cog in Halifax’s attack. He created four chances, including assisting on Ryan Telfer’s match winner and played 19 passes in the final third.

Nicolás Mezquida (Vancouver FC)

Mezquida opened his CPL account with his first goal and was the heartbeat of Vancouver FC’s effort against Cavalry on Friday. Mezquida also created three chances, played six crosses and won three tackles during an energetic performance.

Sean Rea (Halifax Wanderers)

Rea hardly put a foot wrong during a dynamic performance against Pacific on Saturday. He had three shots, two of which were on target, created two chances, 19 of 20 passes and played a big role in Halifax’s second goal.

Forwards 

Tobias Warschewski (Cavalry FC)

The defending Golden Boot winner scored his first goal of the 2025 campaign in second-half stoppage time to rescue a point for Cavalry. Active throughout the match,  he won possession four times in the final third, created two chances and had four shots, three of which were on target.
