“We came here to progress in the tournament, and we are still looking for our first win ever at this level. That first win has to come against New Zealand,” said Andrew Olivieri, Canada Soccer’s Men’s EXCEL U-14 to U-17 Program Director.
“That could be enough to get us through, if we can get that win and close the goal difference, we may see ourselves achieve our objective.”
It really is down to the wire for the Canadian team now. They must defeat New Zealand in Brasilia tomorrow evening and hope that results elsewhere go their way.
