Zero is my hero: Despite being shut out in two of three matches, Canada takes third at Algarve Cup 6 Mar 2019 To finish third at a tournament, in which more than three teams were participating, without scoring a goal in open play? Impressive. With only one goal in three games? That takes effort. Not since the Seattle Sounders won MLS Cup in 2016 without getting a single shot on target before the penalty shootout has a team been rewarded for being as ineffective in front of goal.
Two games at Algarve Cup, no goals from open play 1 Mar 2019 Right now, Canada is one win, one draw at the Algarve Cup because, really, their goal hasn't been threatened. That's not going to happen at the World Cup. At some point, the opposition will score. At some point, Canada might need to score two to win, or to find the net on that one great chance that comes to them in order to turn a 0-o draw into a 1-0 triumph.
Canada held off the scoresheet by Iceland: Time for some knee-jerk reaction! 27 Feb 2019 Let’s face it, you would stay off the message boards and Reddit and the soccer blogs if you wanted sober, measured analysis. What you want is reactionary, knee-jerk, panicked commentary.
Canada Soccer plays most of the hits, saves Herdman for the encore 11 Feb 2019 Having Herdman come out to give the final words at a press conference is like knowing that Rush is saving “2112” for the encore.
Huitema signs with American super-agency, will skip NCAA and go pro 24 Jan 2019 When Canadian soccer fans ask "where will Jordyn Huitema sign?" it won't be about a letter of commitment to an NCAA powerhouse.
Attack in black: Sinclair’s 178th goal gives Canada a win over Norway 22 Jan 2019 But today’s kit was, well, underwhelming. It was as if Nike was like “quick, we need to get Canada a kit in time for this January friendly!” and sent a couple of boxes of generic black shirts and shorts to Spain.
Canada Soccer enters the Nike age 18 Dec 2018 So what should the Alphonso Davies shoes be named? Should we be able to buy Sincy12 gear?
Davies named Canadian men’s player of the year 12 Dec 2018 Davies, who is now with Bayern Munich after a record transfer from the Vancouver Whitecaps, registered four assists for Canada in the calendar year. That’s the second most by a Canadian player since the record keepers started counting assists.
Sinclair named national player of the year for the 14th time 11 Dec 2018 But, Sinclair, Canada's all-time leading scorer, is showing us she's still deserving of the title. She led Canada with eight goals scored in 2018, with four of them coming in the CONCACAF Championships which served as the qualifiers for the 2019 Women's World Cup.
Mexico stifles Canada in U-17 semifinal 28 Nov 2018 Canada had attempts at goal, but none on goal in a 1-0 loss to Mexico. The Mexicans will face Spain in the final.
