Canada Soccer Part VII: Copa America Semifinal Edition

Sucks but we know how good Eustaquio is. Time to see someone else in his role.

May I suggest one Mathieu Choinière

I hope he gets the start or at the very least comes on in the 60th minute. His season needs to be rewarded at the national level.

In other news, the CPL playoffs start tonight with the new format. Pacific is hosting York United who got in on the last day over Atletico.

Should be a good one, looking forward to tuning in post Leafs game.

2023–24 CONCACAF Nations League - Wikipedia

The quarter-final pairings are predetermined based on the ranking of the teams. The group winners and runners-up will be ranked based on their results in the group stage, while the seeded teams will be ranked based on the October 2023 CONCACAF Ranking Index.[5] The first legs will be played on 16 and 17 November, and second legs will be played on 20 and 21 November 2023. The winners will advance to the Nations League Finals and qualify for the 2024 Copa América, while the losers will advance to the Copa América qualifying play-offs.

Not going to read into this one too much...Not worth the time and energy.

Ugh I turned it off after 3-0. Team looked sloppy and just unprepared. They haven't really played together for months so that was expected. Also time to face the reality that our supporting cast....just isn't very good.

Mauro Biello just looked in way over his head, and thankfully he's still an intern They really need to get a manager in that is capable at this level.

And no, not Phil Neville.

You see the impact proper funding can do and you can also see the impact of what being broke does. There's just nothing happening for Canadian football at the moment. Can't afford to even host exhibition friendlies,

Basically sums it up lol

In other news Forge is winning 2-0 in Calgary. If they close this out we get to go another home CPL finals... The only one we have lost is the one we hosted.

 

[robertmac43]

Lower west stand is going to be opened up at THF for the CPL Final as the other lower end has sold out. First time since the inaugural match but that was 100% comped. This will be the biggest paid crowd in Forge history

Pumped for this game. The last final we hosted was in COVID and the crowd was not nearly as big as this one.

Should be a great game!
