    ccs-54-140264009678_thumb.jpgCanada finally earned their first ever point at the FIFA U-17 World Cup on Wednesday night, with a half-field stunner by goalkeeper Quillan Roberts proving to be the goal that sealed the 2-2 draw for the Canadians versus England.

    You can read the full story in my MLSsoccer.com match report, but the truly stand-out moment of the night has to be Roberts' 87th minute goal, basically a ball launched from just behind the centre line that took a high bounce and proceeded to land fortuitously into the England net.

    Canada are still in the hunt for a Round of 16 spot, with a win against Rwanda on Saturday the needed result to advance.
