[The Other Durham]

I don't how to describe the goal they just scored in El Salvador.

 

[Vauxie]

The national sport of Canada is Lacrosse.

Of course it is, them canucks even wear the raquets on their feet for walking in the snaw man.

 

[The Other Durham]

2-0 now. They'll be 7 points ahead of the qualifying line with 3 matches to play.

I switched it on near the end and then have just seen the 1st goal at the end of the game .

Imagine conceeding that FFS, the Canadian lad couldnt believe it either

Have qualified for their first World Cup since 1986. Ex SAFC coach John Herdman is manager, breezed through a group with the Yanks and Mexico. Might make a splash in the finals

Someone going to tell her he was employed by SAFC

 

[PJH]

Went into managing the women's game as a way to get managerial jobs in the men's game as saw that without having been a professional footballer getting opportunities to progress in the mens game here were few and far between. And generally get given more time to overcome mistakes.

 

[Craggsy-SAFC]

USA on verge joining them, currently 3-0 up

 

[SAFCOldie]

Good for them, I remember the 1986 WC with fond memories.

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

Lost to Jamaica the other day didn't they?

 

[BIG MAL]

They do great cheesey chips and have a posh name for them.

1-0 to Costa Rica, only loss in the qualifiers

US 4-0 up at halftime

 

[The Other Durham]

Lost to Jamaica the other day didn't they?

Lost away to Costa Rica 1-0 but played with 10 men for 65+ minutes.

It's not easy at all to get results away in CONCACAF with varying elevations and dangerous locations. Canada hadn't even made it to the final round of qualifying in 20 years so this is some achievement. Hope they do well.

Poutine.

It’s cheese curds, chips, and gravey. It’s their national dish, my wife used to live there for a few years when we were younger. We served that as the evening food at our wedding.
