One of the worst halves of football I've seen Canada play in a long time. The pitch is terrible, but they're losing their cool everywhere.
Phonzie slipping and slamming his fists into the field 3 minutes in set the tone. Vitoria, Laryea and Hoilett are having howlers. Buchanan and Davies look okay but are trying to play pretty football when the pitch doesn't suit it. Even Eustaquio's free kicks are sailing over the touchline rather than settling in the box.
I'd sub out Hoilett and Laryea for Cavallini and Adekugbe. Cavallini's played in Mexico so perhaps he has more experience in these conditions. Laryea hasn't played much in the last 8 months and it shows.
