'Greatest Day in Canadian Football'... That might be a bit of overkill. The day we qualified for Mexico 86 would likely be the Greatest Day in Canadian Football. The Gold Cup win was the Second Greatest Day in Canadian Football. This win was a Very Good Day in Canadian Football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Spiers Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 As commented earlier, the CSA is working hard to persuade Sportsnet to pick up the quarter-final game. Any help from Voyageurs would be appreciated. You can e-mail Sportsnet at: feedback@sportsnet.rogers.com (Positive e-mails only, please). If you like, mark it to the attention of President, Doug Beeforth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Spiers Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 From FIFA - "Play of the Day" “A superb goal” (FIFA.com) 8 Dec 2003 Josh Simpson sends Canada through to the quarter-finals. Josh Simpson’s sweetly struck shot into the top corner of Burkina Faso’s net was the undisputed highlight of Day 8 at the FIFA World Youth Championship UAE 2003. FIFA’s Technical Study Group (TSG) also picked out Justin Mapp’s surging run and simple finish for the USA against Côte d’Ivoire. Gabriel Calderon (ARG): “A superb goal” "The Play of the Day was without doubt the Canadian goal against Burkina Faso. Iian Hume picked up an apparently lost ball and sped off down the right hand side avoiding the close attentions of the Burkinabe defenders right up to their penalty area. He then swung a handsome 30 metre cross over to team-mate Josh Simpson at the far post. There, the number 15 struck a sweet shot home into the opposite top corner. It was a superb goal in every sense of the word." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimglow Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Just so you all know, the front Sports Page of the Ottawa Citizen had a 8x12 color photo of Simpson celebrating his goal. We've got the media's attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SABuffalo786 Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Mapp's goal was just smooth, not spectacular like Simpson's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstackho Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 In Toronto, there is a small picture of Simpson at the top of the front Sports page of the Star, and then the larger Reuters picture with a da Costa story inside. Only a tiny two-inch blurb in the Globe, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
