Cyprus just recently tied Germany 1-1 in the Euro 2008 qualifying round. That being said, it's no excuse that Canada sucks at it, considering how many people actually play this sport in Canada. Funding or not, we should be challenging for a spot in the world cup every 4 years. Since 3 countries in the CONCACAF region get in, with 4 a possibility as there is a play in game. It's quite sad we can't lock up being the 3rd best nation in this region.
