Pretty tough grouping for Canada. There is a lot of excitement here in Canada about making the first World Cup since 1986, and this time the team is apparently much better. But getting friggin Belgium and Croatia in their first 2 games might mean an early flight home.

 

[BoyBrumby]

It's a bit of a smeller, yeah. Maybe four years too early for the Canuckians.

In their favour though Belgium are an ageing team, but still have a lot of quality, probably too much for yer Maples just now.

Croatia on a very decent run of form just now too.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well that was a poor game. Hope the others are more entertaining

 

[smash84]

I am hoping somehow the Canucks can cause an upset today

 

[ripper868]

Well, with penalty taking like that, I'd say Vancouver's NHL team may well have a better chance of scoring.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Belgium look shocking here.

 

[smash84]

Carn Canada

 

[Niall]

Belgium look shocking here.

Bang average sadly.

They were at their peak around 2016 and won sfa, so now they are so vulnerable.

Suppose they always have a chance with KDB but nonetheless Canada can win this match.

 

[Bahnz]

Hugely impressive opening half hour from Canada.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Belgium need Faes and Onana on at half time. Young and have legs to compete.

 

[Everton Seymour]

Hugely impressive opening half hour from Canada.

I disagree, their final third play has been shocking...You can't dominate a team like that and not score , I mean I found myself so frustrated with Canada they had Belgium on their knees ...Then Batshuayi showed them what being clinical is all about. Midfield is brilliant but the finishing has been awful.

 

[smash84]

Hugely impressive opening half hour from Canada.

It's actually a fairly decent team over the last couple of years

 

[ripper868]

if they can find someone to keep their head in the final thrid, they'll equalise this before long.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

If only Canada had a striker.

 

[smash84]

Oh man....not bad from Canada. Better luck next time

 

[Uppercut]

I missed the game but as soon as I saw the lineup I realised Belgium aren't it. Half of their starting XI are players I'd assumed were retired.

 

[Socerer 01]

that's what happens when your manager still prefers the ghost of Hazard to be a main player

 

[Lillian Thomson]

You can stick Belgium v Morocco where the mice can’t get at it. I’m watching Fleet derby on ITV in the FA Cup.

 

[Xuhaib]

Impressed with Morocco set up looks one of the better defensively organised sides.
