Big Canadian win over Belize 'not enough to relax' ahead of second leg

Benito Floro says Canada cannot feel too comfortable after a 3-0 victory over the Central Americans in Friday's first leg of a two-legged series.

TORONTO — It's a rare night when one can justifiably say that Canada should have scored more goals in a game, but Friday's 3-0 win over Belize in World Cup qualifying was definitely one that felt like it should have seen the ball hit the back of the net a few more times.

The Canadians held a massive 75 percent possession advantage and outshot their Central American opponent 25-0, but it wasn't until midway through the first half that the home side finally found the net.
