It is okay to enjoy a stat without trying to #### all over it, or all over the other people enjoying it.

Its not the other teams were racking up goals against powerhouse teams either. England had 10 goals in a game against San Marino, 5 against San Marino, Albania and Andorra, another 4 against Andorra. More just luck of the draw for the good teams in being on there. But having Canada up there regardless is impressive.
