Gian-Luca Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 So if I have this correct, the only thing a loss would do is eliminate us from qualifying automatically for the Olympics, we'd have to go in through the back door of winning the third place match. I can't see that Costa Rican team beating us mind you, unless they were playing possum for some reason in the group stage. They are down 2-0 to the US in the other semi at half-time.

Gian-Luca Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Almost comical 2nd goal, but off the post instead K Edgar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkomar Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Man, if the goal was six feet to the left, it would be 5-0 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 We are playing pretty well. Maybe not perfect but lots to appreciate. Fleming had a cracker that requires a perfect save and we are generating other chances. footballfreak, K Edgar and rkomar 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleming had a cracker that requires a perfect save and we are generating other chances. I'd say we are playing ok, but have been somewhat wasteful, the lack of production each match from our strikers is a long-term concern. We are being greatly helped by the fact that half the Jamaican team doesn't seem to know how to kick the ball properly (including their keeper who does half of their distribution but keeps giving it straight back to our front row of attackers). That said, they have shown, unlike the other even worse teams we have faced, some directness that could cause problems so I hope we just put them away early in the 2nd half and eliminate the possibility of a fluke or mistake taking it to ET & PK's. Fleming just doesn't get enough credit in the Canadian media or arguably the fans, she's been Canada's best player for several years now and is proving it once again. She should be considered a national treasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfreak Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Was Grosso’s exclusion a personnel decision or did she pick up a knock? Edited July 15, 2022 by footballfreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Quadruple change 6 minutes in to the 2nd half, which is weird timing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense given the temperatures they’ve been playing in and the relative lack of punishment if we don’t make the final at all.

phil03 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 And its 3 nil now ! Overall I feel good about the final. Sure they haven't massively dominated, except for the trail end of the game against Trinidad and Tobago but honestly that's not this team does. They get the results they need and they move forward. That's how they won gold and that's how they have a perfect sheet in this tournament. footballfreak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfreak Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 The frontline is still a question mark that needs answering. 12 goals in the tournament so far, but only 3 from the forwards. Not sure what the solution is, but Sinclair as a false 9 ain’t it. Gian-Luca 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 To be perfectly honest, its difficult to justify Concacaf getting 4 World Cup spots on the basis of the overall level of play in the region after seeing all teams play in this tourney. I know Jamaica was apparently missing one of their best players, but even so, they overall looked woeful, and surprisingly slow. And they are going to the World Cup.

footballfreak Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Unrelated to tonight’s game, but it’s been bugging me all night: Who was Canada’s top left back before Chapman? I feel like I’m doing someone a major disservice. Edited July 15, 2022 by footballfreak The Ref 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she's the first name which sprung to my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkomar Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Marie-Eve Nault also played left back. footballfreak and Gian-Luca 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a frustrating player. 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
