It might be a tall task as I hear reports that Canada is pretty banged up after the France game.
I think by this time in a tourney like this you can say that about any of the lower tier teams. They don't have the depth of the All Blacks etc. so they overplay their best players.

But I still think this is a clash of styles and will be very different from the last two. Japan loves to move the ball quickly and Canada needs to play a slower controlled game to win.

Whoever can put their stamp on the game will take it.
