Canada Soccer Part VII: Copa America Semifinal Edition

[al secord]

The lineup will be interesting for this one. No Davies and potentially no Eustaquio.

Edit. There you go. Hopefully Eustaquio is just precautionary. Gulp.

Hopefully he at least gets a run out today...would ease some fears lol

We beat the mighty top 10 in the world US and A with this lineup. What me worry?

The best part about this world cup is no Garreth Wheeler.

Watching a Japanese stream. Time to learn a new language.

 

[Tuggy]

And 1-0 Japan already...9th minute.

Kamal Miller out of position.

 

[al secord]

Brutal.

Tough start. I'm not looking too much into this game. Just stay healthy and learn a thing or two.

Definitely and we are missing two of our best players.

But Miller can't defend like that.

Piette and Kamal are giving me heart palpitations. Not in a good way.

Vitoria!!

Comes off a corner.

 

[al secord]

We're great again!

Atiba directing traffic on that one.

 

[robertmac43]

Nothing better than a Vitoria goal to go with your morning coffee.

 

[Satan]

hell yes boys

Love the way Japan plays the game.

They are consistently one of my favorite international watches. It helps they now have Mitoma crushing it for them!

 

[Tuggy]

Buchanan looking dangerous.

Buchanan looking dangerous.

Yes, take him off lol

Boy was that a bad first 10... not gonna lie, I was worried with what I was seeing. They got their legs and have things back on track. I have loved the last 20!!

We look so much better than the game last Friday. JD looks awesome, Tajon has a lot of speed to his game right now, and Atiba looks good in Midfield. I was worried about no Staq or Oso in the XI, but this midfield is making me a believer.

David does look in great form.

Piette looks overwhelmed. He should not see the pitch in Qatar unless they have no other choice.

Sweet baby Jesus, let's hope we don't see him until we're up 5 - 0 on Belgium.

I was about to say this is the only time he should come on.

He just doesn't have the technical ability on the ball. I like his defensive work rates but even with that he is going to be eaten up by the level of play in our group.

I wouldn't mind seeing Frasier get a run ahead of him here.
