The Halifax Wanderers have made it to Saturday's Canadian Premier League final in Charlottetown, thanks to a loss suffered Tuesday by the Calgary team. Cavalry would have clinched a berth in the 2020 CPL Finals with a win, according to the league's site. The Island Games champion collects the North Star Shield, advances to the 2020 Canadian Championship final and earn a berth in the 2021 CONCACAF League. Earlier Tuesday, Halifax players Ibra Sanoh and Chrisnovic N'sa told CBC News that playing on Prince Edward Island has been like having a home advantage. The Canadian Premier League's season was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, but resumed in Charlottetown this summer with players and staff from all eight teams isolating at the Delta Hotel.
