Gulp! Canada’s U-20s to face Mexico in quarter-final 2 Apr 2011 Canada lost twice Friday at the CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Guatemala.

Guadaloupe is so tiny, it’s not a FIFA member — so it can’t qualify for the U-20 World Cup even if, by some great upset, got to the semis of this tournament in Guatemala.
