Not a bad half, stupid goal to give up obviously, we seem to have recovered nicely and are mostly in control with the odd counter coming our way, we should definitely take our Mf's on yellows out sooner than later, I would not start Kaye in the 2nd, he looks riled and a 2nd yellow wouldn't be a shock!

Yeah, Kaye has not looked sharp.

Might be the worst goal I’ve seen us concede ever.

I know you were just reacting in the moment, but.......

Ugh.

[CanadaFan123]

Buchanan... wow. 
 

Clean up the defence and get a little cleaner with our passing and this would be a blowout.

That goal against though.. yikes. Kaye pulling a Duverger there.

[trc2014]

Honest question from a novice footballer - does Larin do anything off the ball?  Am I wrong thinking Cava is more effective on the pitch overall (with the exception of drawing yellows).

[trc2014]

Has Gareth mentioned no Davies and David enough yet?

This was my first CanMNT game attending live. Possibly first game watching ever (live or TV). I thought this just happened all the time.

That could be a new Voyageurs drinking game for the GC. Every time Wheeler mentions the “2 Dave’s”, we drink!

[Floortom]

All these yellow cards are a problem

In this match he's more of a target man based on whose he's playing with, but ideally he's partnered up top with David or Cavallini (perhaps later on this match) where he plays more of a withdrawn role and his role off the ball is more important.

Vitoria is scary slow. He's the Danny Devito to Phonzie's Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Of course that massive shirt tug by the Martinique player didn't warrant a yellow.

[Olympique_de_Marseille]

Eustáquio and Kaye should come off.

Maybe Fraser and Piette to close this out.

Kaye needs to stop beaking.

He does not. He doesn't dribble that well either.

Wheels calling for a VAR check after a scramble.  God that man's a national treasure.

[narduch]

Cav and Piette on.

Hoilett and Kaye off

You think that first goal at Bermuda still keeps him up at night?  “It was Davies straight off the free kick!”

he really makes me wish onesoccer had a "no commentary" option ..... other than the mute button that is 😅

[WestHamCanadianinOxford]

Larin works hard off the ball in Turkey. And did the same in Belgium the year before.

[trc2014]

US would have buried both of those corners.

"The touch let down Fortuney". Does Wheeler think they speak Spanish in Martinique? 🤣

It's hard to mess up "Fortune". The pronunciation is almost the same in English as it is in French.

Would like to see Ayo given 15 minutes.  Sub him on for Larin and give him a run out.

I don't think you understood what he said.  Use an Ottawa Valley accent: "The touch let down Fortune eh?"

C'mon, pay attention.
