If you have time shifter, then you can watch CBC Halifax at 1130 EST.

You will only miss 3/4 of the game. 

Edited July 6, 2022 by Jedi Ram
Thought the game starts at 1030 EST.

Today's games on One Soccer. Times in ET.

USA beat Jamaica 5-0. Mexico is losing to Haiti 1-0 late in the first half. I haven't been watching Mexico, but I never would have guessed before the tournament that they would be doing so poorly halfway through the group stage. We failed to beat them in 2 friendlies earlier this year if I am not mistaken. Loss and a tie I think?

[JamboAl]

Unless the Mexican women can beat the US and by multiple goals, they are cooked.  I'm frankly shocked at how bad they have looked - their opponents have been so direct against them (and successful).

Mexico women are not he same as they were with Leonardo Cuellar.  I expect will see the last of Monica Vergara.

Ya, Jamaica and Haiti were always going to give them a fight but Mexico have been far worse in the final ⅓ than what I expected.

It's kinda 2018 all over again. A huge blow to the program.

They also got unlucky with their draw and we got super lucky with ours. Haiti and Jamaica are both better than Panama and Trinidad and Tobago.

Huge opportunity for Haiti. Win or a draw against Jamaica puts them in the World Cup, and they look absolutely capable of doing it. Even put a few decent scares into the US backline. 18 year old Melchie Dumornay in particular has looked really dangerous (can’t timestamp on mobile, starts at 2:03)

Dumornay is getting all the buzz. Even though Haiti needs to play more as a team, they have at least a couple of young ballers.

Unlike Mexican teams that qualified for the World Cup, this team has no Maribel Dominguez.

Don't sleep on Haiti's Batcheba Louis who won the Division 1 Arkema's most spectacular goal of the year despite playing with a bad GPSO 92 Issy side that got relegated.

I can't see her playing in D2 next season.

Final day of the group stage. All times ET.

With Jamaica winning 4-0 they are confirmed as your semi opponent 

[red card]

CSA's latest update includes a statement on Priestman's hiring. They say the by-laws don't require a Board vote or discussion in hiring a national team manager which counters 2017-20 board member Leanne Nicolle criticism that the board failed in not approving the hire.

Good thing Priestman won the gold medal as knowing that you were the second choice isn't a good for team dynamics in the middle of qualifying and since some team members including Sinclair have retweeted Westhead's article. The women's well has now also been poisoned.

We are just finding out about that well being poisoned....imagine is Westhead used his journo powers and looked into Zambrano firing and herdman hiring eh????  Imagine what actually happened there.  Oh wait, no one cared about soccer back then, but now its big news and the sexism/inequality angle makes for an excellent twist on the usual ineptitude/corruption story.

When you're a football nation...

New hires will determine future of women's national team manager Monica Vergara.

Semis today. All times ET.

I'm not sure if they should have sacked the lot but at least one or two heads needed to roll. Mexico has the talent and it is unacceptable that they have missed two WWCs in a row.

Got busy and didn't make a match thread last night. I guess I will do that late this afternoon when I get home from work.

Canada match ratings. First two were on CBC delayed. 

In comparison, the lowest rated CANMNT WCQ on linear tv was 158k for Mexico on the road. Costa Rica live audience is in line or greater than Canadian MLS team ratings in past 2-3 years.

The late broadcast times can't be helping matters, particularly the tape delayed ones (even though, with the exception of the Jamaica game, those have been the airings that I've been catching).

[Jedi Ram]

Well am surprised that CBC is not showing this game live considering they did it last Monday.  It's on tape delay on Tuesday at 1 am.  I guess streaming is the only way to watch the Final live.

CBC updated their broadcast schedule for tape delay.

That live match must have been great for viewers in B.C.

Too bad there isn't a regional breakdown.

I wonder if the TV ratings were particularly good there.

CBC showing its solemn respect for Better Call Saul fans.
