Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 14 (hiatus)/NASL Week 11/USL Week 12 13 Jun 2016So, with that in mind, we can look at the current minutes played by Canadians, and compare them to where we were at this time last year.
Keegan’s two-goal effort propels Eddies past Fort Lauderdale 12 Jun 2016“If we wouldn’t have slipped up in Miami two weeks ago, we’d be having a party right now,” said Keegan, who opened the scoring with his foot and scored the second with the back of his head.
Whitecaps storm back, but Tornaghi’s save on MDJ was the turning point 8 Jun 2016Ottawa’s Marcel de Jong got behind the Vancouver defenders and got a clear sight of goal. ‘Caps keeper Paolo Tornaghi scrambled off his line and stopped de Jong’s attempt, point blank.
Eddies put in extra time working to improve their attack 8 Jun 2016“Any time you’re not scoring, at least over a goal per game, it’s frustrating,” said Keegan. “For the most part, apart from the first three games, we’ve been scoring just enough to win games. Obviously in Miami (the loss that eliminated the Eddies from the spring-season title race) we didn’t get it done.”
Coach Dino Perri to assemble Canadian men’s team for Maccabiah Games 8 Jun 2016While Perri will coach the open men’s team, there will be a variety of teams sent to Israel by Maccabi Canada. In the past, national-team keeper Tomer Chencinski, Duke University’s Oliver Spring and VWFC2’s Daniel Haber have represented Canada in the Maccabiah Games.
Beckie’s last-gasp chip gives Canada a 1-0 win over Brazil 7 Jun 2016The Canadian women’s national team that faced Brazil on Saturday in Toronto was disjointed and deserved to lose. The Canadian women’s team that faced Brazil Tuesday in Ottawa was nothing like that.
Awesome Uzbek own goal gives Canadian men a victory 7 Jun 2016We have all seen some fantastic own goals, but Akramjon Komilov’s effort deserves some applause.
Overwhelmingly Canadian Power Rankings MLS Week 14/NASL Week 10/USL Week 11 6 Jun 2016But, thanks to Mother Nature, we have an anomaly. Over the weekend, in USL action, severe weather forced the game between TFCII and the Charlotte Independence to be stopped at the 72-minute mark.
The details on Mallan Roberts’s loan move to Ottawa 4 Jun 2016“If another team comes in for Mallan, we’re in control of that situation. What Ottawa has done is taken on his salary and hopefully he can get some playing time there.”
Error-filled Canadian women’s side lucky to lose only by two to Brazil 4 Jun 2016This Canadian team deserved to lose by more. A lot more. And, without Erin McLeod in goal to bail the team out with a highlight reel worth of saves, you can’t help but feel that this team is scarily close to being on the wrong end of a pretty bad beating from one of the top-tier international opponents.
