If we haven't, I don't even know if I could watch. Another Honduras would scar me for another 5 years. As long as we've clinched Top-4, I'll be happy. But like you, clinching Top-3 before the final game has to be the goal.

superstarss Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Imagine having already qualified before the last game against Panama, them needing a win to knock Mexico into the intercontinental and we roll out the following lineup Jebbison Mitrovic - Flores - Ferdi - Dias Atiba Davies - Smith - Halbouni - Johnston Borjan Tomori watching from the bench counting down the days until he can switch back. costarg, johnyb, Corazon and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panama has a tough window ahead they are going to Costa Rica in a massive game...Costa Rica at home is super tricky...they get Jamaica at home which they should win but if the Jamaica that played in this window shows up that won't be a picnic and then they go to Mexico....and then they still have to go to the US and then get Canada at home...very tricky for Los Canaleros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate to be the jerk-face downer - and it’s not likely - but it is possible. This thing is far from done. You're a martyr. If we lose 0-1 to the US, tie 1-1 in El Salvador, and lose 8-1 in Honduras, then our Top 3 chances drop to 47.6%.

El Diego Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Every once in a while I will watch a YouTube video for "Poland Road to (insert country hosting World Cup/Euro)" which is a compilation of all the goals they scored in the qualifying campaign. Cannot wait to potentially watch "Canada Road to Qatar" a million times. footballfreak and Kyle_The_Hill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a video "Story of the CanMNT" a couple months ago, but the amount of times it got taken down from copyright issues was so frustrating and I gave up. Going to make another one "IF" we qualify.

Beaut Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Great wins in Edmonton. To lock in top 3... 25 or 26 points will likely be needed. To avoid this coming down to the last game, we will (likely) need 3 wins and 1 draw. A huge game is actually Costa Rica (H) v Panama (A). A CR win makes this much easier. Let's get some W's in Honduras and El Salvador. We can and we will. Go gents go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
