The second leg of the 2011 Nutrlite Canadian Championship between Whitecaps FC and Toronto FC has been abandoned because of unplayable field conditions at Toronto's BMO Field on Wednesday evening. Provided the field conditions are playable, the second leg will be replayed in its entirety at BMO Field on Thursday morning at 8 a.m. PT.
Official Nutrilite Canadian Championship Rule 12: If the match is abandoned before the completion of normal playing time because of extreme weather or for reasons outside the control of the host team, the match shall be replayed in its entirety the following day, thus avoiding the considerable extra expense for the visiting team. If it is still impossible to play the match the next day for the same reasons, the match may be postponed by another day, provided both teams agree. If the match can still not be played on the third day, the expenses thus incurred by the visiting team shall be split between the two teams. A decision will be taken within two hours of the referee’s decision to abandon the match, in consultation with the two clubs concerned. In case of dispute, the CSA Organising Committee
fixes the date and kick-off time of the match. Its decision is final.
