With Sunday’s results in the books, the Canadian Men’s National Team remains the only undefeated team in the Concacaf standings with seven points, one behind the U.S. and four points behind first-place Mexico. They will host tied-for-second-place Panama at Major League Soccer’s BMO Field in Toronto. The U.S. Men’s National Team lost to Panama 1-0 in Panama City on Sunday.
“I think coming into this match, if there is any game we have got to win to really set the tone, it’s this one,” John Herdman, Canada’s head coach stated after Tuesday’s training session. “I feel like this is a six-point match for Canada given where the standings are, but more importantly, where I think Panama are going to be by the end of this journey.
