Match Report

The US scored almost from kickoff going long off the start. Canada had a few chances to clear, but the ball stayed in the air under pressure until the US were able to get a bit of space, play wide to GK Max Crepeau’s right, and then back across the goal to a streaking Moore who’d left his mark.

Canada nearly got it right back. After a foul in the 3’, Junior Hoilett knocked a ball far post on to the head of Sam Piette, whose effort was saved by Turner.

Five minutes later, a great release pass from Alistair Johnston to Richie Laryea led to a quick combination with Hoilett that sprung Laryea into space. Laryea took the ball into the USA box and was taken down by Walker Zimmerman for a penalty shout that never came.

Canada had a chance in the 37’ as Osorio and Larin combined to create space for Tajon Buchanan in the box. Buchanan laid off for first-half substitute Osorio who took a step, then a touch and fired into traffic.

Buchanan created a couple of first-half injury time chances to close out the half, the best coming to Johnston at the back post after a Larin dummy pass.

Canada started the second half on the front foot as well. A Larin run ended as he was clattered into atop the US box with the ball falling into the path of Buchanan who forced a stop point blank from Turner.

Laryea was taken down in the penalty area in the 50’ for a second time with no call from the referee.

After a pair of second-half substitutions, Johnston and Buchanan combined which led to a curling cross by Buchanan in the 76’ that was just a touch too high for Cavallini and just out of reach of a streaking Johnston at the back post.

Buchanan’s curling effort just a few minutes later (79’) was impossibly close to finding the inside of the back post behind Turner.

Canada had one last chance for goal in second-half injury time with Lucas Cavallini having a go from just outside the box in the 90’ +2. Turner again was able to take the shot.
