Match Report

Canada was aggressive early with Tajon Buchanan pushing forward before he was taken down in an advanced position leading to an early dangerous free kick in the 3’. Hoilett put a great ball in that was cleared by Martinique.

Mark-Anthony Kaye’s back pass attempt was intercepted by Sebastien Cretinoir in the 10’. Cretinoir played in to Emanuelle Riviere whose touch eventually found the side netting despite a sliding attempt to clear by Kaye.

Canada equalized at 1:1 in the 16’ on a corner kick. Junior Hoilett put a perfectly weighted ball onto Cyle Larin’s right boot who buried it on the volley.

Buchanan got to the goal line in the 20’. His ball back into the box to Jonathan Osorio was re-directed by Osario just wide of Martinique keeper Gilles to give Canada the 2:1 lead.

Buchanan was at it again with another drive down the left side in the 27’. Into the box, he played it to Hoilett, who turned his back on goal and played it back to goalscorer Eustáquio. The Canadian midfielder Eustáquio fired his low shot to earn his first international goal and give Canada a 3:1 lead.

Steven Vitória had another excellent goal scoring opportunity when he fired a shot from outside the box that was tipped over the bar by the Martinique goalkeeper in the 34’.

Into the second half, Canada had two chances in the 61’ when Buchanan hit a volley into the ground and then off a defender, which went out for a corner. Kaye had a second chance on the corner.

Richie Laryea showed his defensive qualities in transition in the 72’ sprinting back to take the ball away after Martinique found themselves in possession on the transition.

Second half substitute Theo Corbeanu had a free kick go just wide of the post on a free kick from just outside the 18 in the 87’. Just two minutes later, in the 89’, Corbeanu finished at the back post on a brilliant ball through from second half sub Lucas Cavallini after picking up the back pass by Martinique to give Canada the 4:1 victory.

“We started off a bit slow, conceded an early goal but reacted well as a team,” said Junior Hoilett. “We have to keep the same intensity going into the next game, keep pushing for goals and get a clean sheet.”

Canada’s starting XI featured Maxime Crépeau in goal, Alistair Johnston at right back, Steven Vitória at centre back, Kamal Miller at left back, and Tajon Buchanan, Richie Laryea, Stephen Eustáquio, Mark-Anthony Kaye, Jonathan Osorio, Cyle Larin and Junior Hoilett. Head Coach John Herdman replaced Hoilett and Kaye with Lucas Cavallini and Samuel Piette (63’), Larin and Eustáquio with Theo Corbeanu and Liam Fraser (74’), and Miller with Doneil Henry (77’).
