I guess Canada had better focus on ice hockey, because this football thing is not working out.
Great performance from Croatia. The fourth Croatian goal caught my attention. They were up 3-1, so the match was more or less over. Yet, when the chance came, the Croatian player UNSELFISHLY passed the ball to his mate for a tap in.
3-1 would have been a good win, but 4-1 is even better. And who knows, that 4th goal might be crucial if qualification comes down to goal difference.
I hope our players are watching and learning!!!
Morocco will top this group. What a year for Moroccan football. Fine blueprint
