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

You will only miss 3/4 of the game.

Video quality is amazing compared to U20 tournament

[vancanman]

About three almost penalties in the space of four seconds.

How many goals should we have by now.

What an awful first half. Awful wayward passes, awful decision making (including that moment where Beckie scored when offside - Sinclair should not have passed to her ).

It is like the team spent too much time in the air conditioned hotel and are struggling in the heat.

[vancanman]

...or the last 35 yards to the goal line is uphill

[vancanman]

I could have put that in. 

[vancanman]

about bloody time

Well, they were slow to get the goalfest going but once they started with the second things really got going.  I thought the starters did pretty well and were just a bit unlucky to not have more goals but hard to deny that the subs had the desired effect and that many may have played themselves into contention for a starting spot next time around.  Great to see the quality of the younger players coming up through the ranks.  

[rkomar]

Besides the obvious choices in young players, I'm really pleased with how Jayde Riviere is coming along.  She just keeps getting better, and who knows where her ceiling will be?  St. Georges and Carle have stiff competition for the right back position.  If Jade Rose can develop into a contender at center back, we'll have a solid and deep back line for a long time to come.

I caught the replay on CBC. Difficult game to assess, the subs all looked great but how much of that was T&T's players turning into treacle as the game went on and they got exhausted?

And am I right that Canada can clinch a WC spot with a win against Panama in their next match? If so, that would be a remarkably short WCQ campaign for a successful qualification

That is correct.  Top two in the group go to the WC.  But only the winner of the tournament is guaranteed a spot in the Olympics.

I think that has to be a big part of why the goals started coming more easily.  I think our attackers also figured out that the keeper wasn't as good at stopping shots along the ground.

[The Ref]

Saw the whole game.  We had difficulty breaking through the packed defence from T&T.  That difficulty may come to bite us on the behind later on.  It wasn't until the late second goal that T&T became unglued and stopped defending that we were able to score a bunch.

Anyone making a match thread for the game tonight?   Mine would probably be underwhelming.
