I don't think there's anything to worry about. Some of these away games in the Caribbean aren't super easy with the poor field conditions, etc. Also the way the qualifying tournament is structured the first two rounds were more uneven matchups while the last two are teams that are closer in talent. There haven't really been any blow-outs this round - Cuba & Jamaica each won by 1 and Haiti won by 2. From what I hear Canada controlled the game and had some shots hit the post as well.

Really, even if Canada loses the last game they most likely will finish in the top 6 and will qualify for the top league. I don't expect us to lose to French Guiana at home in March regardless. And the biggest plus is that we've capped a bunch of new kids that had multiple options of countries (Tabla, Busti, etc.).

Scored his first goal last weekend and tweaked his knee celebrating. Already a true Bayern player

Hell of a weekend supporting the national team with people from all over Western Canada. So much fun, and the win at the end was the icing on the cake. My body hates me right now, but I can't wait for the next one!

Canada has drawn the USA and Cuba in CONCACAF Nations League. I can taste the rum and cigars already!

Does that mean we're going to get slaughtered?

Also, impressive that Martinique made it to League A. They had a perfect record in the qualifying!

I like our chances against the Americans now more than probably any time in the past 20 years or so. Overall, they're obviously a stronger side, particularly when it comes to depth, but I found their recent roster underwhelming. I like our speed and skill up front. I'm eager to see what Davies, David, Hoilett, etc. can do against them.

Cuba will also be interesting. They're below us but certainly not a CONCACAF minnow.

Not really, defence looks shocking Martinique should be ahead.

Hoiletts end product is terrible. Arfield Davis and Davies been the standouts so far

4-0 final, good way to start the tournament. Only caught the second half but David and Davies looked great

Canada extremely lucky Martinique didn't score from any of their great chances in the 1st half. Easily could have been a loss.

A loss? Are you not counting the chances Canada missed?
Like the Cornelius header, Kaye breakaway and Osario crossbar?

Was total domination.
