East Side Stand Up

Despite being soundly defeated at home, 3-0 to Mexico, the pod keeps the result in perspective. There is no question Mexico is the superior team and program and with that in mind, these games are also about staying positive and competitive heading into the final two matches against Honduras and El Salvador. There were certainly moments to be disappointed, as Canada could have capitalized on several chances throughout the match. It will be tough to go into Azteca stadium, but if Canada can come out relatively unscathed, it will go a long way in being prepared for the final games of the fourth round.
