Guest Jeffery S. Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I see the same goal scorers (Ali Gerba 2'; Patrice Bernier 54' y 65') here: http://www.guatefutbol.com/index.php/ficha In article on that site they say it was not a FIFA sanctioned "A" match, so the goals do not officially count in the tally, sorry about that. The report from the same site, entitled "We Lost to Canada", says it was the final prep match before the Gold Cup, that Gerba scored m. 2 and Bernier had a brace minutes 54 and 65, and that they played the same side that drew against Mexico, with the exception of Noriega instead of Flores in the middle of the defence, and striker Motta over attacking mid Contreras. All others started vs. Mexico in their 0-0 two days ago, so good sign in terms of quality, but probably a tired bunch: Perdimos ante Canadá Escrito por Editor Martes, 30 de Junio de 2009 15:58 La Selección de Guatemala cayó derrotada 0-3 ante Canadá este martes en la Universidad de Oxnard. Con este partido, disputado a puerta cerrada, concluyó la mini-gira del equipo azul y blanco, la que sirvió para foguear a México y Canadá a pocos días de iniciar la Copa de Oro de Concacaf, evento para el cual Guatemala está eliminada. Los goles canadienses fueron anotados por Ali Gerba a los dos minutos del primer tiempo, mientras Patrice Bernier hizo un doblete a los 54 y 65. El equipo dirigido por Stephen Hart estará en el Grupo "A" junto a Jamaica, El Salvador y Costa Rica. Guatemala inició jugando con Ricardo Trigueño Foster; Gustavo Cabrera, Luis Ricardo Rodríguez, Cristian Noriega y Carlos Gallardo; Miguel Fernández, Fredy Williams Thompson, Luis Wellington Bradley y Mynor Dávila; Selvin Joel Motta y Tránsito Eduardo Montepeque, lo que implica que en el once inicial el DT Antonio García sólo varió en la defensa con el ingreso de Noriega por Flores y en el ataque, en donde el media punta Contreras fue sustituido por el delantero Motta. Los demás participaron también como inicialistas en el juego contra México (0-0) del domingo pasado. El encuentro de hoy ante Canadá no es considerado de clase "A". El equipo nacional retornará mañana a las 06:00 AM a suelo guatemalteco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Spiers Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 quote:Originally posted by Bill Spiers Substitutions: 42 Bernier for de Guzman At the half - Sutton, Hastings, Simpson for Wagenaar, Jakovic, de Jong 56 Jackson for Peters 66 Jackson (???) for Johnson Corrected: Nakajima-Farran for Johnson 80 Cann for McKenna And the report from the CSA web site: Canada went on the attack from the opening whistle, pushing forward and getting its first corner kick in the opening minutes. A few moments later, Canada was on the scoreboard with the opening goal from Gerba. It was Marcel de Jong who played the ball in from the left side before Gerba headed it in. As the half progressed, Canada continued to maintain pressure on its opponent. Canada had the better part of possession and won four corner kicks while conceding none. Wagenaar was hardly tested behind the defensive line of Kevin McKenna, Dejan Jakovic, Paul Stalteri and Mike Klukowski. Canada also came close to scoring a second goal in the first half. Will Johnson fired a shot just wide of the net on one opportunity and de Jong hit the crossbar on another terrific chance late in the half. Late in the first half, Guatemala’s Fredy Thompson took down Julian de Guzman. The play brought both teams to the centre of the pitch. As this was a friendly match, both Contreras and de Guzman were replaced for substitutions. Before the second half, coach Stephen Hart made three more changes. He switched goalkeeper Wagenaar for Greg Sutton, defender Jakovic for Richard Hastings (Jakovic had a cut on his chin), and forward de Jong for Josh Simpson. He made three more changes in the second half: Simeon Jackson for Jaime Peters, Issey Nakajima-Farran for Johnson, and Adrian Cann for McKenna. Early in the second half, Bernier made it 2-0 on what was his first international goal with Canada’s national team. Simpson made a good run into the Guatemalan end before Klukowski played the ball to the other side of the pitch. Johnson controlled the ball in the box six yards from the line, but he pushed the ball back to an unmarked Bernier who entered the play at the top of the box. Bernier fired home the low shot past the diving goalkeeper. Ten minutes later, it was another Canadian substitute causing trouble in the Guatemalan end. Jackson had control of the ball in the Guatemala box before he was tripped by captain Gustavo Cabrera. Canada was awarded the free shot from the penalty mark, so striker Gerba made it 3-0 with a shot to the top right corner of the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winnipeg Fury Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Gerba now has 13 goals. Getting very close to being top goal scorer. With a dynamite Gold Cup, it would be virtually clinched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonovision Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 If we can believe the match report, Will Johnson set up each of the first two goals. Simeon Jackson was fouled in the box to earn the penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
