Win 1-0. Mexico beats ES 3-0. We now travel to El Salvador on Tuesday. Need one point for sure but three would be great.

 

@CanadaSoccerEN: GOAL! #canm20 take a 1-0 lead in the 43rd minute. Fikayo Tomori scores his first goal in #CanadaRED

#canm20

 

@CanadaSoccerEN: @drkeating match will be broadcast on BeIN Sports https://t.co/MTum64MtBZ

New players, positive results AND our games on tv? Fuck me!

 

Need a point. If we can steal 3 it puts us in the drivers seat.

 

0-0 34th minute. Hoilett missed a decent chance.

 

No score at halftime. Larin hit the cross bar and ES missed on in tight.

 

Game ya. Result is positive. Points in Central America but more importantly Canada has put itself in a good spot. Long way to go.

 

Our roster for the American game. Nice to see Jamar Dixon get a call. Coached against him for 6/7 years when he was a youth. Thought maybe Eddie Edward would sneak in an appearance but alas not this time.

Nice to see Airfield in the lineup. Should make a difference.

good luck tonight, neighbors.

 

If they can somehow sneak a point tonight...

 

Canada has found themselves in front of the Mexico net more than a few times but need to hit the target.
And Mexico is so dangerous in transition.

 

Arfield in.

Started a 16 and a 15 year old.

Ya good luck.

 

Of course the Mexican fell in the box. PK 1-0 Mexico.

 

Lost 2-0 at Azteca. Respectable considering a BS PK and scored in the 4th minute of injury time in the first.

 

so are you guys angling for a joint WC bid with us?

Grant Wahl ‏@GrantWahl
Thinking US's biggest competition to host World Cup '26 might be Mexico & Canada. Keep in mind, new FIFA president likes shared hosting.

 

Didn't I suggest that was a possibility last year?

 

yes

 

Isn't the head of Canadian soccer a strong candidate for the concacaf job? I know he's well respected at FIFA, jokes aside.

 

Fikayo Tomori helped lead Chelsea to the Champions League youth title. He's a CB and has suited up for Canada recently at the youth level. Can play for us England or Nigeria.
