Why was that last one no goal? No replay on the dumpy Commenwealth big screen.

Blatant, blatant handball. Good spot by the ref.

It was scored on a handball.

I'm not sure why that's good for Canada. Mexico is probably 90% for finishing first. Canada, US and others are in the next tier fighting for other spots.

Costa Rica threatening now, their first period of sustained pressure in the match.

Did we take out our best player just so he could get an ovation?

I thought it was an odd substitution as well. Costa Rica were putting three players on Davies every time he gained possession and now they're playing like an entirely different team.

Keeping the pack close is better as long as Canada wins. Imo anyway.

Disappointing to see the match end like this. Canada will be fined heavily for lack of security.

That's a good point. I can see some strategy of getting him out of the abuse from the Costa Ricans/saving him for Tuesday/Putting in defensive players to protect the lead. But yeah, having 3 guys watching him hurts their chances to attack even if Davies just shuts down and hangs out as a threat.

Perhaps there was a fitness concern we're not aware of.

Not a great match from an entertainment point of view but a great result for Canada. If the Mexico match on Tuesday ends in a draw it'll be a great international break.

Canada are now the only unbeaten team in the group.

Doubt it. A note to increase for Tuesday is probably all.

Big gap in the table now as there is 5 points between 4th and 5th

You would think so, but El Salvador got sanctioned for pitch invasions (among other things) and have to play their next home game with part of the stadium closed to fans.
