Fully aware of Mexico’s pedigree, Canada is determined to prove its worth to both the opposition and the rest of CONCACAF.
VANCOUVER – There has been an air of self-confidence at BC Place this week, as Canada prepared for Friday’s crucial World Cup qualifier versus Mexico.
From the experienced leaders to the newer faces in Benito Floro’s squad, the message has been a confident one from Les Rouges, despite the daunting task of a home-and-home series of matches versus CONCACAF powerhouse Mexico.
With a sold-out crowd of over 54,000 expected for the first clash in downtown Vancouver on Good Friday, the focus for the Canadians is to take advantage of the big atmosphere and claim an historical result.
