International Break: Canada Gets First Win of 2018

Canada started off their 2018 season under new head coach John Herdman Saturday March 24th with a 1-0 win against New Zealand. Tosaint Ricketts scored in the 54th minute after bringing down a long cross and getting a high shot over the keeper. Ricketts, who plays with Toronto FC, netted his 16th goal of his career for Canada; this puts him in 4th place tied with Alex Bunbury for most goals scored for the nation. The 30 year-old will look to reach the record held by Dwayne De Rosario at 22 goals in the CONCACAF Nations League.
