Pretty dreadful game, but a win is a win. Pitch was atrocious and hopefully will be in better shape in November, but Canada can't make any excuses about poor pitches when they are the standard elsewhere in the region.
Bombito was the only outfield starter who I thought had a good game. Larin and David had great finishes in otherwise off nights. Thought Eustaquio, Ahmed and Choiniere in particular struggled, although Ahmed had a great ball into Larin for his goal. Don't recall Crepeau doing much other than picking the ball out after a good shot. Millar and Bair looked good in their short cameos.#
Poku making his debut so we will have Forge shoved down our throat for another couple weeks, ignoring former Cavalry man Waterman who got his 5th cap alongside him.
Can't complain about a win in a friendly but not the greatest 2 hours of watching Canada this year.
