For me the coach is approaching this all wrong. Perhaps he's fearing for his job. Canada's goal in this tournament is not to win it or even advance. It's to develop players and find stars. Florio is parking the bus and playing it tight hoping to tie 0-0 or squeak out a 1-0 win to advance in the tournament. Who cares? This isn't world cup qualifying.

Even if Canada loses 5-3 and shows flashes of brilliance, it's better than actually trying to win the tournament. It's part of rebuilding. For a country that doesn't play many games, this has been a waste of three important ones.
