Canada Soccer Part VII: Copa America Semifinal Edition

[al secord]

And we're f***ed.

 

[hatterson]

so if Guadeloupe equalizes and Cuba somehow gets another one, we're f***ed, right?

IIRC it would have come down to fair play points in that case, and I'm not sure how those would have played out.

Doesn't matter now though, Canada gets one extra game to get stomped by the US lol

 

[Tuggy]

Well a date with the US in the QF.

Kamal will need to have the game of his life.

Lol.

This team was third best in this group and will surely get destroyed by the US.

Unfortunate result for Guadalupe.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Simply have to play 4 at the back against USA - don't care if it is 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 (i don't mind the idea of 3 in the mid to clog that up..)

Going to have to be the counter as we will not be coming out to dictate play... don't have the horses here.

 

[Tuggy]

QF day!

Gonna be a tough one. Don't have a lot of confidence going into tonight. We'll see what the boys can do.

 

[Tuggy]

Tough group but I see them getting out. I think they got a strong squad.

Strong squad for sure. Obviously I want to see this team win so that is the hope.

If I'm being real I think we are going 5 games. It's a team in transition at the moment and the next generation is not quite ready to take over imo.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Could be a 3, could be a 4 depending on where Ahmed is. Very surprised Bombito is in.

Surprised Bombito is back in. He's been frighteningly awful.

Not only that. Panel are saying he's alone as a CDM.. I have to imagine Ahmed is alongside him with Osorio perhaps as a 10..

Strong squad but they need some of their young forwards to step up and score some goals in this tournament. They can't just rely on 40 year old Sinclair and midielder Fleming to score their goals for them.

 

[Tuggy]

Not so bad so far...

Still tired of watching Cavallini.

Definitely. Talent is there but they need to produce.

I've been tired of Cavalani from the outset. Hes like a throw back to disappointments of yesteryear.


Hopefully my reverse jinx gets us a goal.

 

[PanniniClaus]

......and he is a lucky man... please be off at half

 

[Tuggy]

......and he is a lucky man... please be off at half

Yup, thought that might have been a red.

Better be off at half.

f***in hell

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Concacaf reffing is pathetic.

 

[Satan]

wow lmfao

 

[PanniniClaus]

Had Bombito's shove resulted in Robinson's handball... fine... it had nothing to do with it.. controversy.

It wasn't even a shove. That literally happens every single corner. If that's a foul you'd have either a pen or a free kick every time.

 

[Michelangelo]

Rigged

Wtf is this shit

 

[Tuggy]

Well...shouldn't be surprised.

 

[PanniniClaus]

The US are playing quite poorly and we are playing decently - Bombito's best game in the colors. Cavallini off - let's get pace up top.
