He said "if the results stay as is". No decision has yet been taken on the Malouda situation. But in all likelihood yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razcal Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 If they get a 3-0 win, means we need to win in order to end up 2nd right? Or if we win by enough (a lot) we can take first from CR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razcal Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Ah yeah, that's right. Still want to beat them for the ranking points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I want the team to beat them for a hell of a lot more than ranking points. Hold them down and rub their noses in a 4-0 win. Lets keep this attitude change going, let the youngsters loose, go for the win. Forget about a draw is good enough, and then worry about that Malouda situation etc. How many times have we played it safe thinking a draw is enough and it bites us on the ass??

killgod Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 While a draw gets us a likely matchup with Jamaica in the QF, Mexico looms large in the SF. Hopefully we can stay on the US side of the bracket, I like our chances of a run to the final better there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Just looking at the bracket, and I'm not liking the look of Martinique on top of their group at the moment. In terms of ranking points it would be annoying to play them in the knockout rounds. I guess if we are to lose to anyone in the knockout rounds, from a ranking points point of view it would be best to lose to Martinique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rheo Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Stupid question but I'm not too familiar with the Honduran team but did they go with a lesser line up last night after learning about the illegal player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. They played a slightly stronger lineup than the one against CR in their first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruffian Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 What Honduras player got their second yellow card last night? I think I saw that on twitter somewhere. Edit: looks like Ever Alvarado. I assume he is out for the third game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenFisk'sBiggestFan Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Canada got no Yellow Cards against CR. They are saving them all for the Hondurans! Hopefully Canada have been saving quite a few goals as well. I would prefer 8 goals, but I would settle for 6 or 7... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you honestly just say you didn't want to face Martinique because of ranking points? I would gladly play them in the quarters if it meant a way better chance of advancing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adrenaline11 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Have you guys seen their tweet with pictures of them handing in their protest in brown envelopes? They're practically rubbing it in. Beat them. Beat them hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shermanator Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 My main question going into Friday's game is how many Calgary V's will show up to the watch party? Sounds like turnout for the first two games wasn't great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
