Recap: Canada struggles on water-clogged pitch in chaotic 2-1 loss to Honduras

Following their controversial cancellation of a friendly scheduled with fellow World Cup participants Iran, a further last-minute cancellation against Panama laid bare a nightmarish scandal in Canadian soccer. On the verge of their first World Cup berth in 26 years, the Men’s National Team found itself embroiled in a labour dispute with the Canadian Soccer Association. The Nations League A match against Honduras could have been a welcome distraction, but Les Rouges ultimately fell 2-1.

While retaining the same 4-4-2 that brought him a 4-0 victory against Curaçao, John Herdman opted for three changes against Honduras.
