Canadian men can play footie!! Really!! World Cup 2026

Not sure if it is home advantage (well, home continent) or what, but we are having our best men's World Cup ever. Won a game for the first time, made it to the knockout stage for the first time, now we are in the second round of the knockout stage. While Canadian women have historically done well, our men have lagged. But this year, we have really stepped up our game. Unfortunately, our next game is going to be against either the legendary Orange, aka The Netherlands, or Morocco, both top rated teams. So making the Round of 8 seems unlikely. But anything is possible in a sudden death tournament like this.

I watched the goal yesterday. Screamed like a madman.

Not super invested in football, but that was a great moment.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of any spectator sports but I do tend to watch a bit of footie during the World Cup and Olympic tournaments.
