They should have won that game with all the corners in the first half.

They salvaged a point, good for them, on to Qatar.

Qatar getting a point against the Swiss isn't great.

Qatar getting a point against the Swiss isn't great.

Some are arguing that opens the door for Canada to win the division, although I'm skeptical. Let's see!

Watching a team like The Netherlands you can really see the talents disparity with a team like Canada. They can really whip it around.

Canada well on their way to their first ever World Cup win.

3-0 at the half against Qatar who are playing a man down. Canada needs 1 more goal to be able to play for a draw against Switzerland for top of the divison

One more red card and three more goals, 6-0 final!

Kone for Canada injured and probably done for the tournament.

That was a bad break and a big loss for Canada.

A massive win overall though. Tying Switzerland will be challenging but it pretty much guarantees Canada advances out of Group play.

I'm hoping for Canada to play the Swiss tough in football to compliment the way the Swiss play Canada tough in hockey.

Just score a damn goal already Belgium! They are killing me.

Canada moves on to the round of 16 with a late goal against South Africa!

 

[L K]

Eustaquio's goal will create a new generation of soccer players for Canada. This is now a successful tournament for Canada.

Realistically the Netherlands/Morocco are a class above but playing teams at this level will push Canada into the next tier of their development.

Couldn't be more proud today

That was a real nail biter right down to basically the end! Great run boys! Let's see how we do against the big guns.

 

[Bill_Berg]

See you in four years, soccer.

 

[Bender]

That was tough. Started well but we just don't have the firepower to compete.

 

[Bender]

Good riddance.

 

[L K]

Best part of that beat down was the Belgians doing the Trump dance after the 4th goal. What an atrocious performance.

CONCACAF lags behind Europe so very much.

 

[Derk]

Amazing that what amounts to a diving penalty may have cost the Swiss a chance to win against Argentina. Once that red card hit the field tilted and that was it.

The only two times in history this new rule has been used were in this World Cup in favour of the USA and Argentina, the two largest economic drivers of the tournament.

Lots of controversy to be sure. Second game in a row Argentina had a favourable call (or non-call) arguably win them the game.

 

[Derk]

Not much controversy in this game. England scored first and sat back and allowed great chance after great chance. Every time they had a goal kick, they just kicked it back to Argentina. The result matched the play - Argentina was the better team today and deserved the win.

England, who last won in 1966, did what they do at these tournaments - choke when the chips are down.
