2 d. ago With a charged win over US, Canada proved they’re a complete squad

Despite losing their best player to injury and their head coach to a red card, Canada hardly lost a step as they beat their northern neighbors on their own turfAmerican positives from a particularly sobering Sunday afternoon at SoFi Stadium were in desperately short supply. To be fair, Americans in general had been in short supply there last week, with the abject turnout for both of the host nation’s two games.One bright spot for the Americans, however, was that Jesse Marsch had been silenced. A second-half red card meant the Canada coach was barred from talking post-match.

Yesterday, reader – with the weekend disappearing over the horizon faster than a Bobby Baggio penalty – Football Daily needed saving. We just didn’t think the thing to save us would be the Nations League.He makes you understand the spaces on the pitch like no other coach and he lives the game emotionally like no other coach.
