Weird or just long suffering Canuck soccer fan? Listen, I didn't mean to offend. If I did, I do sincerely apologize, there ain't enough Canadian soccer team fans as it is and the last thing I want is for someone to have animosity because of that comment.

Just a great day and a few laughs well downing some beer after a GC win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floortom Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Personally a win with +2 GD was as good as I was expecting so can't complain. One more result should probably get us through to next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tg02 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 So many headlines could be written from this one! Overall pretty pleased with the majority of play except the nail biting parts........ which unfortunately they always seem to include for us. Glad they got the result and responded the way they did after the rain and Honduran fans let up. Hoping Cavalini will shake off his last game against them and put in one or many to shut them up early next Friday. So happy for Arfield and Davies......well earned!!! Any update on Borjan?

Maybe it is weird or maybe after decades some of us have just found the dark lining to a silver cloud. Or maybe too many beers and just being over analytical?

Cavallini was a beast out there will only play better the more games he gets in the national team, we are lucky to have him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king1010 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I think cavallini played a good game. Strong hold up play with backk to goal. Nice assist on davies first goal. AJH also played well. With larin in the mix it is good to have attacking options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 People are rueing the goals we conceded? I thought after Floro people were saying they would be happy with high scoring losses. Good game yesterday. It doesn't make me more confident for the next two games, but I'm happy the streak is over and we are off to a good start. Pumped about Davies' performance. According to Wikipedia, Davies is tied for 6th most career goals in the Gold Cup for Canada. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Time_CONCACAF_Gold_Cup_Goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Also, in one game we've already bettered or equaled the total number of goals we scored in 8 out of the 12 previous tournaments. Let that sink in for a bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
