I think they can only score on set plays or a penalty. They have wasted 2.

Just terrible. Canada has one striker, so about 12 mins in, he basically gives all he can to get a corner so he can get the rest of the team in the box for a rare chance...they then take a short corner...4 passes later they've gotten back to their own side of half, two more passes and Henry can't keep the ball in, unpressured, on the touchline.

No way these Canadian players are ready for the altitude (which is terrible in itself), so if they are going to strike, its gotta be in the first half you'd think.

CB or HB as Henry, you should know to be on the right side of a player, yet Henry was behind. Now just hoofed the ball 40 yards into touch.

And Mexico isn't that bad (although the laser pointer is unsurprising). It's once you get to Guatemala and Hondurus where the urine bags really start to fly.

Another short one and another terrible cross. Who the hell is telling these guys what to do?

Losing Borjan certainly won't help our cause.

Canada just can't finish. If they had a couple strikers who could actually put shots on goal...

Broken hand or fingers for sure

I vote at Canada's home matches the fans pull out the laser pointers. Let's even the playing field

Did Borjan break his thumb? Was trying to read his lips, but couldn't tell.

Wow. Gorgeous goal

Horrendous defending, but man, what a touch

Doesn't anyone of the 5 Canadian players want that ball? Pure trash to let that ball just float at the top of the box and watch a Mexican dance around them all. Soft as warm butter.

It's so strange to see how slow our defenders are to react. Pony tail guy (De Jong?) should have been goal-side way quicker there.

I would like to see Akindele feature more prominently in the future. He was the only guy willing to take on the Mexican players one on one.

Larin did absolutely nothing to win me over as a fan these last two games. He doesn't know when to make his runs, move the ball. He just looks so lost

Our Nasl players and assorted bench warmers couldn't beat a team made up of champions league players? No surprise there.

We have one goal in 4 games. That goal was a header that bounced off a player's back, who was lying on the ground.
