GWT: World Cup - Group F (Morocco and Croatia Advance)

[GKJ]

Kind of a crime Canada hasn’t scored yet

 

[Tryamw]

Half time 1 Belgium 0 Canada.

 

[maclean]

as much as we can hold our heads high, without a goal it doens't mean jack

 

[hatterson]

Yea that hit the arm, but obviously it was right in front of his chest so never a handball.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Once it hit around 40 minutes, the goal needed to be to hit halftime no worse than scoreless.

Up against it now.

 

[Blender]

Can't afford to blow this many chances and still expect to win.

 

[Shocker]

That was entertaining as f***, but Canada man, you gotta convert those.

 

[hatterson]

Lol ref blows a full 15 seconds before the "minimum" added time.

 

[maclean]

haha blowing the whistle early is this guy's MO eh?

 

[TMLeafer]

Yes let's see Larin in the 2nd half

 

[Quinning]

f*** that was a goal if it wasn't blocked

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Really entertaining match though.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Can't complain about the effort. So I won't.

 

[jj cale]

Great first half...but missed penalty (and many other chances) and a defensive breakdown and down 1-0...

f***

Time for some changes and adjustments. Bring Larin on.

I only asked we be competitive and we've been more then that, I still think we are gonna tie this up with the next one, but we gotta shore things up in the backfield. Love how the guys came out for this game and competed, they were ready to go and show the world we aren't some pushover.

 

[NotCommitted]

Canada is a joy to watch but they seem ridiculously bad at scoring. I know none of the players so have no idea if any of them is actually a good goal scorer usually.

I want Adekugbe and Osorio on.

I love Atiba but he looks rather slow in transition.

 

[John Price]

 

[The Examiner]

holy f*** that guy is scary

Nah. I’ve seen him up close in person. He is genuinely one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever seen.

 

[objectiveposter]

im not a big soccer guy but the fact that canada is outshooting the #2 ranked country in the world 14-4 is impressive

He is very slow in transition but defensively, he has been phenomenal.

 

[TMLeafer]

Tsn timed that davies waited 65 seconds at the spot before the ref blew the whistle.

The #2 ranking is kind of misleading.

well more than kind of.

Belgium is still a quality side though - 6th ranked through in ELO.

Some of our games in qualification could have been historic blowouts if our guys could decently finish but that's a commonplace inevitability in soccer. Not every nation has that elite #9.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

He is very slow in transition but defensively, he has been phenomenal.

We haven't been bossed in the midfield like I expected.

 

[Blender]

Belgium suffers the same problem they always do. They have a lot of good players, but they don't really have much of a team identity.
