Man. I definitely shed a tear. I had come to terms with the thought that Canada was never going to make a WC in my lifetime. CSA was a joke..politics, corruption, poor player selection, no funding…you name it.
I always remember as a kid while in other countries, I was ashamed to say I was a soccer player from Canada. Almost as if it was a caveat. “Yea I play soccer….but in Canada”. Can’t remember how many times I told ppl I was born in the wrong country given my love for the sport.
These boys have put us on the map. What a journey. Can’t wait for Qatar.
