If Canada had accepted the offer to become the 51st state, all of its games would have been held in country.
But seriously, Canada should be content that their poverty soccer nation got to host the 3 home games that they did.
Canada will now play the rest of their games in the USA, despite being co-hosts. You could argue, "well they should have just won their games," but it doesn't seem right that a host team isn't playing their knockout games in their own nation after progressing from their group.
@TaylorTwellman You have to break someone’s leg in order for the refs to blow their whistle in this World Cup. Unless, of course, someone breathes on a goalkeeper. Those are always called.
@Jimmyking35 A fun little fact: Ronaldinho played in the first ever game at Lincoln Financial Field, a friendly between Barcelona and Manchester United.
@BlueBoxDave This would be a lot easier to do if she hadn’t told her loyal audience on the Right to “Go f*ck yourselves”. She’s an arsonist who says, “Hey, someone should really put out all of these fires.”
@nypost So New York is forcing people going to World Cup games to take public transportation, and at the same time is letting “emotionally disturbed” guys with knives hang around the train stations. Cool.
@byalexcoffey The first USMNT match I attended was a friendly at The Vet vs. Sheffield Wednesday. I remember Tug leading the crowd in a “We want the cup” chant at halftime.
