Man lots of online anger that Tajon wasnt called for a penalty. Even Hugo Perez commented on it during his post-match press conference. Looking at the replay, it could have easily been called imo

Tajon is going to have to watch himself in the penalty area, he charges in carelessly and he is going to be called again.   I get nervous every time he ventures in

Seriously.  I posted at one point that 5 would be quite solid.  And 6 or more would be great.  9?  Not bad at all.

Hope the wife is OK.

What I found hilarious in that clip is Cornelius wagging his finger at David as if he just did something naughty.

If I interpreted this the way it was intended to be interpreted, well done my friend 👏

Watching the replay now on Sportsnet, they mention that El Salvador’s victory over Honduras was their first away win in WCQ since 1969 but they should qualify that by saying first road  victory of the final round of qualifying since that time. For a start I can recall them beating us at Swangard in the semi final round in 1992, even though we beat them twice in the final round of four teams in 1993

He was mimicking the celebration that David was doing.

572k viewership last night. Still a good number.

Really good number considering it was on Sportsnet 1.

That is a great number considering everything else one last night. Curling will always pull in its number plus the Olympics is getting going. Plus SN1 does make a difference.

Canada controlled first 60. Subs came in to dominate last 30.

Do you mean Cristian Campagna?

The CanMNT International Man of Mystery who may not have a club but is at all MNT camps.

Spaghetti Western obviously.

[An Observer]

Maybe he is just photo bombing the whole of qualifying like that guy did a ManU team pic before a champions league match

That guy should write a book about this qualifying campaign, or at least a super long The Athletic article. Perfect witness to an historical year for the CMNT.

There’s a lot to unpack here, but my favourite part is Atiba sitting completely motionless in the first clip just soaking it all in. Or he fell asleep with his eyes open.
