The Treaty of London (1839) means that scoring against Belgium is illegal

Which almost never happens for offside. I certainly can't remember ever seeing it before.

yeah it's unusual but makes sense in this case imo because it was an unusual offside: the player was clearly off, but it was up to the ref to decide whether he thought they were interfering with play or not since he didn't touch the ball

Candians are polite until sports are involved, then they're more barbaric than everyone else other than the British.

tbh we aren't that polite the rest of the time either, we're just super passive aggressive

why does the referee wait 15 seconds to raise the flag for offside?

it's a VAR thing, they let the play finish just in case the computer says it wasn't offside

the defending midfielders (Hutchinson especially) just can't keep up and are either just getting run past or are losing track of runners. If I were them I would start blood doping STAT.

Hutchinson is the one player older than the Croatian fossils

In all seriousness Canada are better to watch and have better star players than the rest of the CUMboys atm but seem really naive and lacking in tactics, match sense etc. their heads went completely after they scored which is kinda bad 2mins in. Maybe they need a manager other than some Geordie gobshite

The story of John Herdman is that he's a genius at motivating players but an amateur at tactics and that's good enough to bulldoze CONCACAF but not good enough to beat experienced international teams
