This is Canada's B team pretty much. Julian DeGuzman (deportivo la coruna), Dwayne de Rosario (MLS MVP), Atiba hutchinson (Copenhagan), Rob Friend (Borrusia Munchengladbach) ALL GONE. Our starting goalie is a back of for CFR Cluj. Players playing out of position-adrian serioux playing right back?! Injuries to Marcel de Jong, radninzky. AND YET, STILL WE OWN A MEXICAN TEAM THAT CAME HERE NEEDING POINTS TO QUALIFIY. Just wait y'all canada will dominate in Concacaf football in years to come.

hahaha, ya i was exaggerating canada's result/performance here. They didn't "own" mexico, but considering the difference in pretty much everything (soccer background, players, infrastructure etc.) Canada gave mexico a good run for their money. These highlights are bias towards mexico, although mexico had more chances, Canada had more quality chances, Stalteri's shot off the bar etc. Mexico's 1st goal was a joke. However, saying all this, we performed sh!t the rest of the games and honestly, dont deserve to be in the world cup. But hey, a good performance against a good world cup team.

Also, even though Canada had nothing to play for, many of these players could have walked off back to their clubs and/or not played because of injuries. Look at Marcel de Jong. I bet if Mexico were in the same position (will never happen) many players wouldn't have showed up becuase of their egos. Canada has players like that too, but we lack depth and to perform like that agaisnt players who play at waay highler levels agaist bigger teams was good to see.

I'm an Arsenal fan, but just because they come back to beat hull at home doesnt mean they can all of a sudden turn it up and beat chelsea etc. Results like this should be expected, not used to be excited for huge up and coming games. The only good things that came from this (other than the win obviusly) was the 'winning mentality'. If they have trouble taking care of Hull at home (depending on a center half to score game winners), then we'll be in deep trouble come Chelsea, Man Utd. or LIverpool. However, once fabregas, rosicky, eduardo, adebayor all lace up, things could get interseting indeed.
