Atlético Ottawa claim de facto top spot in the league, a position owed heavily to the massive paw of once-auxiliary keeper Rayane Yesli. The 24-year-old produced a composed performance between the sticks to keep an injury ravaged Pacific FC at bay, while at the other end it was Rubén Del

Once again, Atlético Ottawa was forced to work to maintain its undefeated streak in another tired-looking performance from the Ottawa club. Rubén Del Campo scored his third goal in three consecutive league starts, although it was the scrappiest of the lot. ATO continued to knock on the door throughout the

With other CPL clubs taking the field against MLS sides like Vancouver Whitecaps and CF Montréal this week, Atlético Ottawa will be hungry to get its own bite at the cherry. To do so, it will have to go through the unblinking Pacific FC, which has started the season undefeated

It wasn’t the finest 90 minutes of football that Atlético Ottawa will play — in fact it was a bit of a scrapfest. But Atleti weathered the rather mild Valour FC storm to emerge 2-0 victors and improve upon an already glimmering unbeaten record which now stands at 4-1-0 across

So, how was everyone else’s Wednesday? To call this match the best performance Atlético Ottawa has put together in their 102-game history is somehow a wild understatement. No one in their right mind would have dreamed of such a dominant display, even if the home side were the clear

In less days than goals scored against Valour Wednesday, Atlético Ottawa once again take to the pitch against the Winnipeg outfit. Coach Carlos Gonzalez said the matchup will be “completely different,” as Valour will no doubt look to take revenge for the embarrassment they faced in the Canadian Championship midweek.

Match Day In Review
The Halifax Wanderers hosted Atlético Ottawa on April 27th, at the Wanderers Ground, which marked the first away game of the season for the nation’s capital team. Historically, Ottawa performs better on the road and Saturday was no different, as the visitors clutched a 3-1 win over the home-side.

It wasn’t quite the stiff opposition Atlético Ottawa faced traveling to Wanderers Ground last year, and Atlético Ottawa owe that to Lorenzo Callegari. It was a silly challenge from the one-time PSG man which left his ten fellow Haligonians weathering an Atleti storm. Del Campo and Tabla both found
