Canada win over USA
Canada win over USA
Canada moved closer to a first World Cup place since 1986 with a victory over their big rivals
the United States in Concacaf qualifying.
Besiktas striker Cyle Larin, 26, became Canada’s all-time top scorer with his 23rd international goal when he
fired home from 16 yards early on.
The closest the United States went was a Weston McKennie header that was tipped onto the bar by Milan Borjan.
The Reds stay top of qualifying after remaining unbeaten in their first 10 games, plus six wins out of six in previous rounds.
Three wins from their final four games which are against El Salvador, Costa Rica, Jamaica and Panama
would guarantee a place at Qatar 2022.
Second-placed USA’s fate is still in their own hands with the top three qualifying automatically and
fourth place going into a play-off.
