Great OP op

I moved to Canada 17 years ago and stoked that they are in the world Cup finally! Gonna be fun going to pubs for the games

Hope they don't play England (my birth country) though, that could get a bit awkward

Obvious choice would be the Beagle in Victoria but the owner suuucks so I'm boycotting it

Could see Canada putting a couple past Blegum to be honest

Maybe I'm just dumb but I fully see Canada either nicking a draw or a win here

While also being sad it's not a summer world cup like usual, this is so dumb

Slapped a cheeky fiver on Canada winning at 5-1

L.H.O.O.Q. posted:

I think it should be noted that Belgium for some reason decided to not challenge the midfield and also not tighten up space in general. Other, more organised teams, will make it much harder to play though them.

The idea that Canada playing like this would beat Morocco and Croatia doesn’t take into account that those two teams won’t let Canada play the same sort of game. Or at least try to.

Why bother when you can just hoof it over the top and score like you are Millwall or some poo poo

Seriously that was an annoying goal to give away, route one football is like the first thing you learn to defend against

Not bad but you can really see the difference between Canada and more experienced international teams - Canada just lacks the cutting edge that other teams do.

Not even sure it's a question of player quality, not sure what it is.

4-1 I feel was a bit unflattering

Second half wasn't bad, team just looked completely unused to playing at the world cup. No killer edge
