In that case, I hope Croatia runs all over Belgium and knocks these clowns out of the World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of that second Moroccan goal, we would now need to beat them by 2 goals in the last match for us to make it assuming we draw Croatia king1010 and Floortom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allez les Rouges Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 On 11/24/2022 at 2:03 PM, Allez les Rouges said: Scenarios for remaining games In all cases, Canada advances with 2 wins and is eliminated with any further loss; I examine the other cases below. If BEL/MAR draw Canada advances with a 2-goal win and a draw. Canada advances with a 1-goal win and a draw UNLESS tiebreaker goes beyond goal differential and Canada loses it. Canada is eliminated with 2 draws.If BEL beats MAR Canada advances with win vs. CRO and draw vs. MAR UNLESS CRO beats BEL and wins tiebreaker against CAN. Canada advances with draw vs. CRO and win vs. MAR UNLESS CRO beats BEL. Canada is eliminated with 2 draws UNLESS BEL beats CRO and CAN wins 3-way tiebreaker.If MAR beats BEL by x goals Canada advances with win vs. CRO and draw vs. MAR UNLESS any ONE of the following occurs: - BEL beats CRO, - BEL draws CRO and x=1 and CAN beats CRO by only 1 goal and BEL at least matches CAN in total goals, - CRO beats BEL and wins tiebreaker against CAN. Canada advances with draw vs. CRO and win vs. MAR UNLESS EITHER of the following occurs: - BEL does not draw CRO and either CAN beats MAR by 0.5x goals or less or (CAN beats MAR by 0.5x+0.5 goals and has fewer total goals than MAR) - BEL draws CRO and x=1 and CAN beats MAR by only 1 goal and is not among the two teams advancing via the BEL/CAN/MAR tiebreaker (all 3 teams at 0 differential, so starts with total goals for) Canada is eliminated with 2 draws. My takeways: - Overall, BEL/MAR draw is the best scenario for Canada, although BEL beating MAR is the only case where Canada could advance with 2 draws. - BEL win is preferable to MAR win if Canada then beats CRO. - MAR win, especially a small one, is arguably preferable to BEL win if Canada then draws CRO. It would give Canada control of its destiny, but may require a margin of victory against MAR. - In any case, Canada will need help if it draws MAR on the 3rd matchday UNLESS BEL/MAR draw and Canada beats CRO by 2+ goals, in which case a draw vs. MAR would be guaranteed to suffice. 2-0 MAR win vs. BEL means that the last column of the table applies. In more detail, to advance, Canada needs: (a) 2 wins, or (b) win vs. CRO and draw vs. MAR and EITHER: - BEL/CRO draw - CRO win vs. BEL and fails to win tiebreaker against CAN, or (c) draw vs. CRO and win vs. MAR and EITHER: - BEL/CRO draw - CAN beats MAR by at least 2 goals. king1010 and narduch 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morocco no doubt studied what happened in that game very carefully. vancanman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Who cares about this group stuff? Who's scoring Canada's first ever goal from this XI? Vitoria or Larin for me. narduch and canuckgbp 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially ironic for anyone on TSN to get their guard up when their indifference to soccer is part of the reason the players and the CSA are at odds. What's all this then?

In a way, it's wild that Adekugbe got so much time in a lineup that includes one of the world's best left backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a role he's accustomed to for Canada, and when he has come on as a sub he has not been particularly super.
