Football is growing in Canada! Six months ago, we were playing the WORLD CUP and now we made it to the Final of the Nations League...We will keep growing, it is all a process!
How is it going to grow if we can't watch it, these games need to be more easily accessible and on more platforms. Less viewers less interest less growth.
The timing of Balogun’s run on his goal was fantastic. As a Canadian I was watching the replay looking for any hint of offside but nope. Just perfect execution.
Amigos canadienses no se desilucionen la verdad tienen una buena selección la segunda mejor de Concacaf actualmente, y con un futuro grande por delante ahora la meta debe ser ganar la copa oro, saludos
Let’s all relax a bit. The USA is a way better team than us talent wise. Herdman shouldn’t be immune to criticism but let’s remember just how far we’ve come under his watch
All true! Until at least 8 Canada team starters will play a solid part in solid enough teams playing in the "big 5 Euro leagues", Canada will be a forever underdog to the USA. No matter how good is Davies, no matter if David is said to be the best forward in CONCACAF. If I understood correcty, from USA's team for this match 14 guys were playing in the "big 5 Euro leagues", and only 4 from Canada. Those "big 5" leagues are what they are for a good reason, not because some shi.t Euro-snobism.
We beat them before and we can beat them again with the same group. We were not where we needed to be, that is tactics and I dont blame herdman, we only got this far because of him. They outplayed us, I didnt see any Canadian offense in this game asides from Larins kick straight to the keeper. When we are firing, we are a better team than mexico or america. We are younger, faster and more of a unit but we didnt play that way today.
@@joshmcdonald7472 mate 90% of those fans had never watched a full match before the World Cup. Also the media hyped it up to try and sell the game and promote the team so they had no clue
No shame in losing to USA, imo. They just have more players with more experience in bigger games/teams/leagues. Canada should still hold their head high. It is between USA and Canada now for the top two in CONCACAF. A fact Mexico cannot accept, which is why they play dirty (if we can't win, we'll take you out mentality) and fans throwing drinks onto the players. USA fans see a bit of us in you. A budding soccer nation, fighting against several sports for recognition, slowly but surely becoming a respected team in the international game. And Canada did it quicker than the US. And many of us do root for you guys (especially against Mexico), but of course not against us. This will be a good rivalry for years to come.
Gotz nothin to be hanging your head about. You guys have come from irrelevant to a WC and a NL final in no time..well played. You guys had 10x more class and a bunch more opportunities than the L-tri! Take solace in that. Good game Canuks, much respect🇺🇸 from the Back to Back Nations League Champions🥇🥇

You've made a lot of progress. Nothing to be ashamed about. Remember where the US was in 2018. You've clearly got one of the best coaches in the region, just need a bit more players pushing themselves in Europe. Good luck in the future.
I watched this match in ESPN here in Argentina. I knew USA was going to win since they're the better team but I was still rooting for Canada. CANMNT is just starting their journey, all these experiences (this final and the World Cup) are good for them. Good luck in the Gold Cup!
It's great that a Canada USA soccer rivalry is emerging like the one in hockey and (hopefully one day) basketball. Home sides almost always overperform in WCs (except Brazil recently; Quatar doesn't count), and it's interesting there will be THREE home sides in the next WC. I hope all the N. American sides improve and are ready. I don't think America can win the WC yet. But we could go far with these young guys.
Not a rivalry, USA clearly better. USA didn't even have Ream, Dest, Adams, and McKennie, 4 World Cup starters. USA didn't even have Carter Vickers or Miles Robinson. And USA was unlucky not to win by 4 or 5
@@oldblood_eyeswell, the US-Canada rivalry potentially can get ugly depending on the matches. If it's a World Cup match and the United States loses, you bet the US fans will not be happy, especially getting eliminated by Canada.
No bad game from borjan he needs to have more authority in his box, he needs to cut crosses not let them passed him because hes poorly positioned, horrible game. Hes way to passive always hesitant to go into the forward ‘s feet
I think the 1st US goal was a 50-50 ball. I remember Craig Forrest, it's a team game, respect the effort of the team, you can see it on the field, kudos.
What a great game, and thumbs up to the fans for attending and giving their support. Canada shouldn't worry about the Nations League trophy just wait for me, I will win it for this country Insha Allah and I beat my chest saying this.
So embarrassing. 😭Our back line was lost without Vitoria. Oso was miserable. Davies inconsequential. David and Larin missed chances they normally bury. 🤦♂
Herdman once again got his tactics wrong. It sucks but it doesn't seem like he learned from the WC. USA were without their starting RB and their backup has to go up vs the BEST 1v1 attacker in the continent, so ofc we decide to pump aimless inaccurate long balls. Davies at least looked dangerous when we finally got him the ball, but he was clearly trying to play hero ball in the 2nd half and had very wild shots from too far out. David and Larin have that Lukaku/Harry Kane DNA. Great numbers against lower teams but ghost when trophies are on the line. Those two together simply don't work in matches where Canada doesn't dominate the midfield, and they both had horrible touches, looked like they were playing with cement boots. Johnston def played like someone who was exhausted after his first European season. Kennedy is still Canada's best ball playing CB, but his injury filled season and lack of pace were cruelly exposed. If we're gonna continue with him, need a much faster CB to cover for him. We're now firmly in the top 3 of CONCACAF, but tonight showed the US is still far ahead of us as #1.
Love my Johnston from Lakeshore, but he had way too many brain freezes like that header to no one at the top of the box in the 7th, and then that chance that Larin flubbed in the 8th… Would of changed everything in the game… We lacked cohesion, heart and all the other qualities that got us this far… Sitting just behind the Voyageurs was a treat and now dust ourselves off and onto the Gold Cup I guess…
Most of this analysis is great, but it must be said that Joe Scally is a much better defender than Sergiño Dest, and it really showed. Scally defended Davies exceptionally well, which isn't a big surprise, it's his strength. Honestly if Tim Weah or Puli get hurt, Dest should be considered as a winger with Joe Scally left at RB. Reyna must stay in the midfield and Aaronsen has looked poor
Canadian fans have no reason to feel shame and all the reasons to be proud. The US was just the better and luckier team in this game. This however, does not negate all the efforts that the coach and the young lads have exerted to reach these finals. I still remember back in 1986 (as a teenager) the MNT consisting of veterans from NASL, MISL and from teams playing second division Norway or Austria. Some players, that went to Mexico, weren't even affiliated with any teams. So lets cut Team Canada some slack. Now, the forthcoming challenge, will be competition. Concacaf powers such as Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica, T&T, Jamaica and even Mexico (to a certain extent) are no longer competitive as they were 10 yrs ago due to the lack of capital investment from the ever impoverishing toll of their Governments. Canada will be making it to future world cups, without a doubt; only problem will be that due to the lack of Concacaf competitiveness, they'll be crushed(perhaps beaten) by opponents from the AFC, CAF, CONMEBOL and UEFA. If Canadian fans start gloating every time the MNT beats Aruba 10-0 or St. Lucia 8-0, then don't expect miracles when facing Norway, South Korea, Nigeria or Albania. My 2 cents...
Acknowledge previous shenanigans with the newly reinstated USMNT Coach & Reyna, but as one who watched his father Claudio distribute some amazing passes with the smoothest of touches to less skilled talent, it cannot be overlooked that Gio has that similar gift & capability. Claudio was not blessed with the level talent on those 90s teams which his son’s generation has in the attacking third of the field. 🍻🇺🇸🍻
Watched the match. There's some good signs, especially with the transition play and the threat on our flanks. These were not flukes during the WCQs. However, our defending of set pieces is just amateur level, there are weak teams in the Canadian premier league that defend better than that. In addition, the first touches were like stabs to eyes, especially from Davies and David. Laryea and Kone are only ones who should hold their heads high from yesterday's performance. All that being said, US is the better team and has the better talent pool.
USA definitely deserved this win, but Canada should be kicking themselves for missing their opportunities. And Canada definitely needs to get a better keeper. That first goal was light.
USA didn't even have Ream, Dest, Adams, and McKennie, 4 World Cup starters. USA didn't even have Carter Vickers or Miles Robinson. And USA was unlucky not to win by 4 or 5
As a USMNT fan I will say Richards and both Robinsons along with Dest are truly our best back line. Tim Ream was only at the WC because both Richards and Robinson were injured, and we were playing against England's Kane which Ream matched up well against. Tim is really 5th or 6th center back for us. Richards, Robinson, Zimmerman, Long, Ream, CCV, Brooks, Miazga
@@jasonmcwhirter7093 lmfaoo what?? Right now Tim Ream is the best CB in the US. He is a consistent starter for a Premier League team. Richards will one day be a starter for the US, but right now he isn't better than Ream, as he doesnt play much for Crystal Palace. Robinson is a full back, not a center back. lmfaoooo you did not just put Aaron Long above Tim Ream. Ream and Zimmerman are the starting CBs for the US, with maybe Richards in the convo or CCV
it's USA, the World Sports Hegemon. USA media still barely even covers soccer and USA is getting so much better. Imagine if USA actually cared about this sport
Canada needs a solid mid field... i have been saying that for years... Osorio has to go... David and Larin need to get in shape... always acting lazy...
no big deal for the loss. Both teams have one super star, but US has much more excellent and very good players. For the time being, if we hold third place behind US and Mexico, that's good enough. We still have new generation players to develop in the future.
So-so play by Canada (overall, as they did have a few good chances and were decent but not at their best defensively) with lack-luster desire and I daresay a mediocre game plan equals NO GOALS and a loss to an American side that played well and had more desire to get to the ball and to play and defend. Previously when they won it was the other way around. So it's always a good match and typically a close game but right now it's obvious the USA is a bit better. Both WC teams have improvements to make still, if they want to beat Top 10 World Class Teams.
How sad is this when we can't even watch this soccer game without subscribing to a streaming platform we will never use. Preventing people to watch games reducing interest in the sport, good job!! I thought it was the goal to get the most viewers I'm confused. Anyways thank god for One Soccer for showing us the highlights hopefully soccer will become more accessible to more people.
Some days just aren’t your day. Everything went wrong for Canada all game long; rock touches, terrible passing, stupid decisions. Very annoying that last night was the day we were shit but such is life.
Nunca pensé que los Yankees y los Yankees 2.0 jugarían un partido así de intenso (a comparación de como jugaban hace 10 años) mejoraron mucho y van a seguir mejorando, ya encontraron el camino.
US va muy bien,Canada tambien..........lastima q Mexico s a quedado resagado en todo aspecto........gracias a Televisa y sus empresarios y directivos..........y en Mexico hay Buenos coaches y jugadores.......q verguenza.
1:20 sequence should have been a goal. Cut it away from the defender and smack it in. Wasted a perfect pass. 6:16 sequence should have led to a goal too. Terrible finishing.
Football is goal. No goals, no victories. No victories, trophies. Canada 🇨🇦 has proven that we can play with the big boys, now we need to prove that we can beat them. We need to level up our tactics and our kits. Why is ugly and boring always the Canadian way?
Who cares about that?? At least there wasn't beer, and God knows what else being thrown!! Words have yet to cause physical harm. The 🏳️🌈 nazis will be fine. When every company and Western govt catering to their feefees, they will get over 40k Mexicans chanting puto😂😂
canada had the better manager but not the talent..... we had 6 of our A team players missing and still dominated... if your coach wzs with us during the wc we would of gotten to semi finals... js we got the better team u got the better manager
You also need more away matches before you make a run at a non US World Cup. USMNT seems to play away less than anyone in UEFA, CONMEBOL, the top tier of AFC, CONCACAF (it showed in qualifying). It's not just coaching why the Dutch were better.
@@LeBaseballGuy yep that too they fold under pressure so much... the goals Netherlands scored weren't impressive either more like bad defense leaving spaces wide open and it was the same counter with a pass to the inside of the box were nobody was there because our manager is sht and benches our best players... js it coukd of easily been a draw onto penalties if we had a better formation with better defense... i hope greg doesn't fck it up
The Canadian National Team learnt little if anything of the past World Cup. There is no 10, there is no intelligent player in the 11. Is all running and kicking whatever, no quarterback to deliver assists with opportunity. The forwards and the strikers kick with power but not finesse. No growth noted since the World Cup. The manager tactics are counter attacking and nothing else. I can’t see them moving forward playing like this. Too bad.
Right ! Herdman is naive. The defensive players are less than average and Herdman plays with only three in the back ! They got out numbered in the back and they needed Steven Vitoria in the back for his height on headers !
@@riobabic8960 Right, The Gringoes are nothing out of this world. Our team, with the experience they have been getting of late should've done better. The Canadian tactics were, in my opinion, inadequate to play them, the rings had the pressure to win, not us, they were in front of their crowd. Counter attacking will not work. I have seen this before, that is the way the English play, the English almost like the Leafs have not been successful in 57 years!.
How is the keeper not even in the center for that first goal. Hes so far to his right that if he had just been properly positioned in the middle like any pro keeper he could have easily stopped that first goal shocking really
I would not say to square one, we still are a lot better in concacaf then we once where, but yeah we saw tonight that this team still has a long way to go.
Canada won the World Championship again this year as well as the Junior World Championship. Our women are World Champions. Best in the world every year. Olympics, Worlds, Juniors, Women’s World. No nation comes close to us. Go 🇨🇦!
The United States is better than Canada in football, baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, golf, swimming, athletics, boxing, lacrosse, shooting, diving, wrestling, rowing, gymnastics, sailing, cycling, weightlifting, water polo, archery, equestrian, volleyball, beach volleyball, fencing, triathlon, judo, taekwondo, figure skating, snowboarding, speed skating, alpine skiing, and bobsleigh among others, so basically every other sport
You sound bitter. Maple syrup isn't bitter, it's sweet, try that instead. Otherwise you sound like a butt-hurt L-tri fan..just different accents🤣🤣🤣Cheer up buttercup! Your lads did ya proud.
US beat Mexico in what was practically a Mexican home game 3-0 , ratio was 10 Mexican fans for each American lmao and 70,000 stadium capacity with about 25/30k attendance not to bad for soccer in the US in Las Vegas of all cities lol
David and lareya overrated af. Richie lareya is simply not good enough at this level and yet herdman still favours him. Talking about David, i don't remember when was the last time he turned up against a big team. We desperately needs daniel jebbison, a proper no. 9 who can turn up in big matches. Also, why play kennedy in such a crucicial match? Also, what was buchanan doing on the bench, he should have played instead of lareya from the vert start. I can continue listing our problems for hours. John herdman seriously needs to get his priorities straight, he should bench those guys who don't turn up when it matters the most like david, it doesn't matter how big of a superstar they are, they aren't bigger than the country. Also, he should stop giving chances to mediocore MLS players like lareya and kennedy.
Unironically I think the only 2 players that played well today where vitoria, and kone, and even kone made a small mistake on the second goal, and stopped for some reason. We just had a really bad game and got a reality check tonight, still think we have a good group, but i still feel their is certain weaknesses in the team that need to be adressed. Overall we had a really bad game.
Herdman is great. The women had never won anything until he showed up, and we weren't even close to qualifying for the WC until he came to the men's team.
I can't believe people said USA was the better team. Maybe a different game but this game, Canada was the better team. Team Canada was wasteful and with killer forward would have won this game.
Bruh, he’s been in Canada since he was 5 and been there for the past 17 years. Canada isn’t America with 6 generations of the same families. Doesn’t mean Davies isn’t Canadian.
Soccer is an abbreviated term for association football, and since it's been in use since 1895, soccer is just as valid as "football" to describe the sport. Other parts of the world other than North America also use the word "soccer." The Australian national team's nickname is the socceroos, for example.
Football is growing in Canada! Six months ago, we were playing the WORLD CUP and now we made it to the Final of the Nations League...We will keep growing, it is all a process!
Ya wanna know how its REALLY growing? Now EVERYONE I KNOW is playing recess soccer!
Well being in the World Cup is more impressive than the Nation's League. So we'll stick to that part more lol.
Football is growing in the United States too. It's the greatest sport ever and I'm glad to see it's growing in this continent. Also good game. 🤝
Canada needs more attacks power. Lack during the World Cup and lack in the final of the Nations League. Someone to make the team less predictable.
How is it going to grow if we can't watch it, these games need to be more easily accessible and on more platforms. Less viewers less interest less growth.
Can we take a moment for both Chris Richards and Folarin Balogun. What great players, pure class.
They're good. Well deserved debut goals.
The timing of Balogun’s run on his goal was fantastic. As a Canadian I was watching the replay looking for any hint of offside but nope. Just perfect execution.

Richards will one day be a starter for the US, but right now he isn't better than Ream, as he doesnt play much for Crystal Palace. Robinson is a full back, not a center back. lmfaoooo you did not just put Aaron Long above Tim Ream. Ream and Zimmerman are the starting CBs for the US, with maybe Richards in the convo or CCV
What's really happening to Mexico football.
Damn.... America took over to easily.
it's USA, the World Sports Hegemon. USA media still barely even covers soccer and USA is getting so much better. Imagine if USA actually cared about this sport
Wat kind of coach would select a player that can’t even kick the ball properly (larin)
Canada needs a solid mid field... i have been saying that for years... Osorio has to go... David and Larin need to get in shape... always acting lazy...
Osorio was shambles so far this season at TFC too, besides missing so many matches because of injury.
Soccer will never grow as long as the stadium always empty even though its a final. Kid will not interested in playing soccer if there is no support
The only support for soccer in the US IS the kids
LET'S GO USA!
Canada can win games in snow at minus 20 in Edmonton but in normal temperatures, they are no match...
🇺🇸
no big deal for the loss. Both teams have one super star, but US has much more excellent and very good players. For the time being, if we hold third place behind US and Mexico, that's good enough. We still have new generation players to develop in the future.
So-so play by Canada (overall, as they did have a few good chances and were decent but not at their best defensively) with lack-luster desire and I daresay a mediocre game plan equals NO GOALS and a loss to an American side that played well and had more desire to get to the ball and to play and defend. Previously when they won it was the other way around. So it's always a good match and typically a close game but right now it's obvious the USA is a bit better. Both WC teams have improvements to make still, if they want to beat Top 10 World Class Teams.
Richardssss🦅🦅
Feel bad for Davies. Attack is nonexistent for us and hes gotta be behind every goal
How sad is this when we can't even watch this soccer game without subscribing to a streaming platform we will never use. Preventing people to watch games reducing interest in the sport, good job!! I thought it was the goal to get the most viewers I'm confused. Anyways thank god for One Soccer for showing us the highlights hopefully soccer will become more accessible to more people.
USA is way better than Canada , we’ve seen them in the World Cup ; they are talented -Skillful : Well deserved victory 👍👍
Some days just aren’t your day. Everything went wrong for Canada all
game long; rock touches, terrible passing, stupid decisions. Very annoying that last night was the day we were shit but such is life.
The play of the US made you shit.
Some saves were incredibly good
Sometimes you lose and can be proud of the performance. Not on this night..
Nunca pensé que los Yankees y los Yankees 2.0 jugarían un partido así de intenso (a comparación de como jugaban hace 10 años) mejoraron mucho y van a seguir mejorando, ya encontraron el camino.
Where is Mexico??? they be released from CONCACAF ?????????????????
They lost to the US in the semi 3-0 bro
@@Somdeb10 oh shit noway
US va muy bien,Canada tambien..........lastima q Mexico s a quedado resagado en todo aspecto........gracias a Televisa y sus empresarios y directivos..........y en Mexico hay Buenos coaches y jugadores.......q verguenza.
Good
Usa you are anime style heroes usa the anime hero
It’s Folarin Balogun not Florian Balogun. It’s not that difficult to get right. Jeez!!!!
Borjan needs to sit
1:20 sequence should have been a goal. Cut it away from the defender and smack it in. Wasted a perfect pass. 6:16 sequence should have led to a goal too. Terrible finishing.
Football is goal. No goals, no victories. No victories, trophies. Canada 🇨🇦 has proven that we can play with the big boys, now we need to prove that we can beat them. We need to level up our tactics and our kits. Why is ugly and boring always the Canadian way?
USA still a level above. Canada and the US have very bright futures.
Let’s go USA!… Congratulations! 🇺🇸
So where is Davis now ?????
Over prayes player imature. People put him so high ,but it s the whole team .Davis need to grow up.
At least there's no homophobic chant
Who cares about that?? At least there wasn't beer, and God knows what else being thrown!! Words have yet to cause physical harm. The 🏳️🌈 nazis will be fine. When every company and Western govt catering to their feefees, they will get over 40k Mexicans chanting puto😂😂
AWAKENBEERUS is the sports predictor extraordinaire. Don’t make a bet without consulting his wisdom!
canada had the better manager but not the talent..... we had 6 of our A team players missing and still dominated... if your coach wzs with us during the wc we would of gotten to semi finals... js we got the better team u got the better manager
You also need more away matches before you make a run at a non US World Cup. USMNT seems to play away less than anyone in UEFA, CONMEBOL, the top tier of AFC, CONCACAF (it showed in qualifying). It's not just coaching why the Dutch were better.
@@LeBaseballGuy yep that too they fold under pressure so much... the goals Netherlands scored weren't impressive either more like bad defense leaving spaces wide open and it was the same counter with a pass to the inside of the box were nobody was there because our manager is sht and benches our best players... js it coukd of easily been a draw onto penalties if we had a better formation with better defense... i hope greg doesn't fck it up
Weak goal tending , where was Buchanan? Come on Herdman
Too bad nobody could hit the net.... 🤷♂️
Hey relax everybody. The states is the best nation soccer team ever
The Canadian National Team learnt little if anything of the past World Cup. There is no 10, there is no intelligent player in the 11. Is all running and kicking whatever, no quarterback to deliver assists with opportunity. The forwards and the strikers kick with power but not finesse. No growth noted since the World Cup. The manager tactics are counter attacking and nothing else. I can’t see them moving forward playing like this. Too bad.
Right ! Herdman is naive. The defensive players are less than average and Herdman plays with only three in the back ! They got out numbered in the back and they needed Steven Vitoria in the back for his height on headers !
@@riobabic8960 Right, The Gringoes are nothing out of this world. Our team, with the experience they have been getting of late should've done better. The Canadian tactics were, in my opinion, inadequate to play them, the rings had the pressure to win, not us, they were in front of their crowd. Counter attacking will not work. I have seen this before, that is the way the English play, the English almost like the Leafs have not been successful in 57 years!.
Who's that Bubblegum guy that scored?
Just call him Flo.
Yall terrible at reading or Sumn. It's Balogun Folarin, I don't even see Flo, it's fol. Bubblegum is crazy
@@lortpilopoloralphlauren7429 One of his nicknames is Flo I don't know why, and it does sound kind of dumb but that's just what it is.🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂
🤫 lolly pop
How is the keeper not even in the center for that first goal. Hes so far to his right that if he had just been properly positioned in the middle like any pro keeper he could have easily stopped that first goal shocking really
USA USA USA USA 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Big disappointed, we, American may have won but played so sloppy game. Not like CHAMP at all.
CAN back to square one. Embarrassing to wach.
I would not say to square one, we still are a lot better in concacaf then we once where, but yeah we saw tonight that this team still has a long way to go.
Pulosic, jeboteotac.
No hate here, but almost every name in the US is the least-sounding American name lol.
Personally I don’t see herdman in 2026. Canada need someone with experience.
canada was terrible this game
thanks for highlights but that is still a thumb down on result
Totally expected
Сша с победой
poor defending and weak goaltending
Canada won the World Championship again this year as well as the Junior World Championship. Our women are World Champions. Best in the world every year. Olympics, Worlds, Juniors, Women’s World. No nation comes close to us. Go 🇨🇦!
Hockey??
The United States is better than Canada in football, baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, golf, swimming, athletics, boxing, lacrosse, shooting, diving, wrestling, rowing, gymnastics, sailing, cycling, weightlifting, water polo, archery, equestrian, volleyball, beach volleyball, fencing, triathlon, judo, taekwondo, figure skating, snowboarding, speed skating, alpine skiing, and bobsleigh among others, so basically every other sport
COPE
@@AW-zk5qb hockey?
No one cares about women’s soccer 😂
Can't say I'm surprised we won.
Hmmmm....they played the final in a US stadium? Very neutral lol.
Also, so many empty seats lol.
You sound bitter. Maple syrup isn't bitter, it's sweet, try that instead. Otherwise you sound like a butt-hurt L-tri fan..just different accents🤣🤣🤣Cheer up buttercup! Your lads did ya proud.
Nevada is one of the worst places to play. There is no crowd advantage .
US beat Mexico in what was practically a Mexican home game 3-0 , ratio was 10 Mexican fans for each American lmao and 70,000 stadium capacity with about 25/30k attendance not to bad for soccer in the US in Las Vegas of all cities lol
Yaaaaaaaaa let's go usa power like anime
David and lareya overrated af. Richie lareya is simply not good enough at this level and yet herdman still favours him. Talking about David, i don't remember when was the last time he turned up against a big team. We desperately needs daniel jebbison, a proper no. 9 who can turn up in big matches. Also, why play kennedy in such a crucicial match? Also, what was buchanan doing on the bench, he should have played instead of lareya from the vert start. I can continue listing our problems for hours. John herdman seriously needs to get his priorities straight, he should bench those guys who don't turn up when it matters the most like david, it doesn't matter how big of a superstar they are, they aren't bigger than the country. Also, he should stop giving chances to mediocore MLS players like lareya and kennedy.
Unironically I think the only 2 players that played well today where vitoria, and kone, and even kone made a small mistake on the second goal, and stopped for some reason. We just had a really bad game and got a reality check tonight, still think we have a good group, but i still feel their is certain weaknesses in the team that need to be adressed. Overall we had a really bad game.
@@daniellizotte6110 You forgot Miller
Canada needs a better coach and goalkeeper.
Nah canada goalkeeper is good
Herdman is great. The women had never won anything until he showed up, and we weren't even close to qualifying for the WC until he came to the men's team.
I can't believe people said USA was the better team. Maybe a different game but this game, Canada was the better team. Team Canada was wasteful and with killer forward would have won this game.
Canada was lackluster. What the heck are you talking about?
That copium must hit good
lmfaooooooo USA didn't have Ream, Miles Robinson, Dest, McKennie, Carter Vickers, Adams etc and was still unlucky not to win 4 or 5-0
That was for the wildfires RAH 🦅 🔴⚪️🔵 🇺🇸

Canada got only one player and he's from Liberia or Ghana 😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh, he’s been in Canada since he was 5 and been there for the past 17 years. Canada isn’t America with 6 generations of the same families. Doesn’t mean Davies isn’t Canadian.
@@arsenio_tdotbullshit what an insult

Canada so overrated
Canada is not a country, territoire britannique If you know what mean 😂😂😂😂

Make me laff u men haha USAMNT vs CANMNT just put USA vs CAN and it’s called football not soccer aswel 🫣
Soccer
Soccer is an abbreviated term for association football, and since it's been in use since 1895, soccer is just as valid as "football" to describe the sport. Other parts of the world other than North America also use the word "soccer." The Australian national team's nickname is the socceroos, for example.

We are not sloppy at all, lol. We were missing players, and we still beat em easily.
