After this, the team secured a place in the final with a 3-2 aggregate win (after two matches) over Atletico Ottawa in the semi-finals.

Vancouver FC's Director of Football Operations, Jeevin Kang, says “the season has been challenging for the team and not many expected the team to make it to the finals. He said, “the team is being considered as underdogs, but the players will put in the effort and will take to the field with the intention of winning.”

Jeevin Kang said, “Vancouver FC, a CPL team has made it to the final, which is a huge achievement.” He added, “the team has achieved the feat of making it to the finals in just its third year.”
