Had a huge smile on my face during the whole video. Honestly, I'm impressed! That's quite a crowd that braved the cold to watch what is, as of now, a niche sport in the country. Adding sights as these to Team Canada's worthy (if brief) showing at the World Cup, I can see a bright future to Canada's football (or soccer, call it as you will) scene.
Football is not niche in Canada. It’s well participated. Any lack of viewership is due to the fact we realize we don’t have the best leagues. The league is getting better and Canada also now has the CPL just under MLS. But participation in the sport has always been high. We just understand and enjoy our Basketball, Hockey, American Football, and baseball just as much and since we have the best in those leagues it’s viewed more.
Hello! I am very happy to see a full stadium at a football match in Canada! Congratulations ! We are waiting for you in Giulesti, as soon as you can.😉👍⚽
More european atmosphere than expected I saw flags, mouthpieces, smokebombs, drums... nice! More like british atmosphere But the whole grilled pig was something new 😅 never seen that on an european stadium
The MLS fan experience is very good. I can't believe that many people came out with that insane weather. I'm not sure why they don't have a roof. I think Miami lost that game when the temperature dropped below freezing. I live in Miami. People here break out the winter jackets when it drops below 60°F/16°C so I'm not surprised we didn't win 😂.
The atmosphere was great, despite the weather! The fans energy was pretty contagious, and actually the weather was a part of the energy. We loved our experience
I saw the replay of the stream earlier and thought to myself “Oh man, maybe that WAS Ivana I saw at the match ..”, then watching this video, realised I was sat in the same area as when you were up top in the crazy cold, just a bit further back, and at some point on the way downstairs later,, I heard someone say “Mum” in the way Steve does, but just thought it was a Canadian thing rather than putting the two and two together. Funny old world, I’m a UK viewer over for a trip, and it was way too cold to take my hands out of my pockets to take photos or a vid, so thanks for the “way better than I would have shot” souvenir video of my Saturday night in Toronto, haha!
@@JetLagWarriors Well I haven’t actually been to a match in the UK in many a year and it was my second TFC match, as I went last Summer too, but you’re definitely right that a Summer evening makes for a much more comfortable experience down there at BMO Field, so that at least the lake winds blowing in your face are like sweet, sweet aircon rather than some cruel punishment from the football god of frost!) but for the dedication on Saturday, for how cold it was, I thought it was a great atmosphere and a really nice stadium. And the food options are just ridiculous (in a good way!)
Canada is a beautiful countrie even when its cold. I whish you ALL the happiness in world for the Just maried. Good to ser you watchin a soccer match. Greetings from 🇧🇷😊
Lately I've seen people from the USA warming up to soccer (football) too. Saw a bunch of stadiums being full (with people) during the championship. Maybe is also because the national USA team doesn't suck as much as in some other past 😄
Interesting to see the atmosphere at this stadium during a soccer game. I assumed it would be quite different from when this stadium hosts football games but it looks quite similar.
Steve ..you should have searched for a live stream and watch CFR Cluj vs Rapid. (CFR being a favorite to win the championship) Rapid tied the game again and it's 2-2. It 'rains' with goals 😁
We, the Atletico Ottawa will wait for you, the Torontonians. See you in the match here in TD Place Ottawa. Spring is in here already! Yesterday you guys came to Ottawa for the Senators vs Maple Leaf game and caused a traffic jam outside the Canadian Tire Centre stadium, as usual.
If it is that cold it is better to be an Ultras or stay and jump with them 🙂 If Romania qualifies at World Cup 2026, I will come in Canada to see them play.
Wow! I hope Romania qualifies... because Ivana and I hope to see some games in Canada too! Imagine Romania vs Canada in Toronto?! That would be something special
hey steve, I would love to see an electric snow mobile video, we dont have snow mobiles here in brazil, if you could make a video about electric snow mobiles that would be cool.
Tem uma diferença bem grande quando se trata de torcidas do Brasil, com torcidas de outros países, acho que o Brasil é muito violento no quesito de torcida organizada.
I don’t like MLSE and the no cash policy. Games should not be played in March especially night ! Pro soccer was much better in Toronto in the 70s and 80s !
@@demarcdegasol NO IT IS NOT. IT IS CALLED FOOTBALL OK? NOBODY CARES WHAT AMERICANS SAY ABOUT THIS SPORT. NOBODY EVER CALLED THIS SPORT "SOCCER"... ONLY STUPID PEOPLE.

Yeah, to be honest, we thought the stadium was going to be empty and boring, especially in the sub-zero temperature! Haha

haha glad you enjoyed the game, the fun and the wind along with the weather, hope you become part of the tfc family all the best

Remember , you went to Bahia's match in Salvador and saw our fans how fanatic and happy we are rooting for our team.

Oh wow! What did you think of the match? Compared to UK matches? Haha. Glad we all survived the cold!

What are you talking about the States team has been crap the last 5 years. They were much better 20 years ago !
The female team is by far better lol

COLD PRA CARAMBA!!!
Had so much fun, despite the cold weather!!
-3° is not even cold
Hai Rapid! 😄
Just got back from the game tonight. The atmosphere was AMAZING! Even though Toronto lost 1-0 that fans were chanting the whole match.
That porchetta sandwich at BMO is spectacular.
I was lucky enough to be at this game and the thing i remember most was HOW FREAKING COLD IT WAS!!!😂😂😂
That was a friggin' cold game.
The porchetta sandwiches are great! Lol Glad you got to experience the game in different sections. Always welcome in 116 with Kings in the north!
Legal vê que os canadenses também gostam de futebol.No bom estilo inglês
E com a copa de 2026 vai ficar bem melhpr

Rapid tied the game again and it's 2-2. It 'rains' with goals 😁
You picked the coldest game in TFC history to attend. Next time come in spring or summer. The stadium will be full for sure.
We, the Atletico Ottawa will wait for you, the Torontonians.
See you in the match here in TD Place Ottawa. Spring is in here already!
Yesterday you guys came to Ottawa for the Senators vs Maple Leaf game and caused a traffic jam outside the Canadian Tire Centre stadium, as usual.
If they sell beer in europe it depends on the country, in austria for example you can drink everywhere in the stadion too!:)
If it is that cold it is better to be an Ultras or stay and jump with them 🙂
If Romania qualifies at World Cup 2026, I will come in Canada to see them play.

I'm pretty sure I saw 2 Steves during the video 😅
Música do alok na torcida do Canadá 🇨🇦
2:25, the mark-up on that pop tho! 😵
lol you're right, I didn't even notice: pop for $7!!!
Great video, guys. 2026 World Cup will be great, no doubt!
Better than expected, still well below the European standards, Hai Rapid!
Football ⚽
That’s soccer
Deus abençoe vocês. 🇧🇷
hey steve, I would love to see an electric snow mobile video, we dont have snow mobiles here in brazil, if you could make a video about electric snow mobiles that would be cool.
I go all the time its a load of fun party party party
Take that Miami!! The cold was worth it!
Aqui esta muito quente 33 graus Porto Alegre rs Brasil
How did you go to the Turkish football match because when I went they asked for some kind of card called passolig . Did you have to do the same?
Yes, we bought the card at the stadium.
Muito bom.
Muito bom 😂😂😂
Isnt it boring after Besiktas match in Turkey?
Estar fazendo pouco frio aí? LOL

Please mate, stop saying SOCCER!
It's called soccer. Association football. More English speakers by far say soccer over football. USA, Canada, Australia, SA etc etc

Get over it America and Canada do things differently. What’s wrong with that
@@whodis5369 if they wanna play the world cup and other Fifa events then they must say FOOTBALL. There is no soccer in the whole world.
