After 34 years of waiting, Canada returns to win the US

Drafting Sports (USA), Oct 16 (EFE) .- It took 34 years and 17 games for the Canadian national team to beat the United States again.

It was during the Group A meeting of the League of Nations of the Concacaf that was played in Toronto and in which Canda won 2-0.

In the United States national team nobody expected defeat and much less the way Canada imposed at all times its best football, as a whole and with several individuals such as the young strikers Alphonso Davies, 18, and Lucas Cavallini, 26, goal authors.

Davies, who plays for Bayern Munich in Germany, was responsible for putting the 1-0 in the 63rd minute and Cavallini, who plays for Puebla in the MX League, sentenced in 90 with a great shot with his right leg.

The delirium seized the 17,126 spectators who gathered in the stands of the BMO Field in Toronto.

The cross of the coin was to see the United States striker, Christian Pulisic, who was replaced 60 minutes into the second half, by Paul Arriola, with his right hand covering his face.

Already in the mixed zone, Pulisic, who said he was not feeling well because of a cold, also admitted that the United States never had the same 'energy' in the field that Canada showed.

'That is very disappointing. That is the only thing we should have controlled and we could not tonight, 'said Pulisic, who at 51 minutes had the clearest chance of marking and advancing to the United States, but Canadian goalkeeper Milan Borjan with a great intervention avoided.

'It should have been a goal, but it just wasn't my day, I guess,' he acknowledged.

After this victory, Canada remains undefeated with nine points; The United States occupies second place with three, and one less game, and Cuba is last with three defeats.

The next duel between the United States and Canada will be on November 15, in Orlando (Florida) and four days later, on the 19th, the selection of the Stars and Stripes will face that of Cuba, in George Town, Cayman Islands.

The United States must win the next two games and have a better goal difference if they want to finish as first in the group.
