Yea, I'm going to the game on the 12th rain/snow or shine with my 7 and 9 year olds. We'll go full snow gear if we have to. It is going DOWN.

Is there an English translation of this somewhere?

Just had my business partner watch the video as he's fluent in Spanish. Essentially they're yelling at the Panamanian player because Alphonso took the ball from him like he was a little boy.

From twitter

"C’mon man, how did you let him take it away from you??”

"He took the ball away from you like candy from a kid!”

"It’s Alphonso Davies, you have to run!!!”

Someone on twitter offered the following

"Goddamn! I’m telling its Alphonso Davies you gotta run! It was like taking candy from a baby! C’mon! That’s a training session goal at Bayern! Ok that they are better but we can’t give away the match this way! It was Canada’s worst moment! Cummings NEVER AGAIN!"

And after 4 minutes of the first period of any Flames game, unless the Flames are already up by 2, it can be used as the representation of the CP game thread.

Alistair Johnson is flying under the radar as being one of Canada's best players so far in the tournament IMO. Feels like he wins every battle, makes the right play most times, and isn't taking any crap from anyone which is exactly what we need. Guy has played every minute except for 13 vs Mexico and seems to be taking strides every game. He's a very key cog in the machine right now.

MegaErtz · 10-14-2021, 08:22 PM

I notice Scott Kennedy wasn't in the squad after his disastrous performance against the USA last month.

shermanator · 10-14-2021, 08:42 PM

....because Kennedy picked up an injury....

cam_wmh · 10-14-2021, 11:59 PM

I swear to god, we’re being trolled.

MillerTime GFG · 10-15-2021, 12:25 AM

I hope, for his sake, that he’s trolling. If not, he’s just a guy that has zero knowledge of the sport, while being very vocally opinionated. Bad combo.

Nice. I might get to see 3 matches this cycle which would be awesome.

Then I'll sell my kidneys and go to Qatar

Scrambler · 10-15-2021, 01:28 PM

Still no tickets for sale for the EDM games in Nov. I'm hoping in any case there will be something like a charter bus from Rose & Crown to both games. I'd love to go but I'd be on my own, don't feel like driving 6 hrs roundtrip on QE2 to go alone.

Best chance I'll probably have is to go to the game vs Costa Rica on Fri Nov 12.

Should be something out soon.

CroFlames · 10-19-2021, 10:48 AM

I take it still no word on when ticket sales start?

TheIronMaiden · 10-19-2021, 10:54 AM

It's going to be hard to not chant no one wants to live in Edmonton while watching a match there. A first for me.

Have you ever seen the immediate area around Commonwealth? It's like they're constantly filming episodes of The Last of Us... except there's no cameras around.

There will not be a bus from the Rose and Crown to any game in Edmonton.

Plus if I'm being honest, we've had a lot of frustration around the busses from the Rose and Crown to Cavalry games this year. The bus for Sunday's game didn't even show up and people who were expecting it were left on their own.
