At 79, Bob Sayer has more than a few stories about Canadian soccer.
A favourite dates back to 1982 when he and Tony Waiters broke into a stadium in the Azores to settle a bet.
The Canadian Olympic team, with Waiters as coach and Sayer as head of delegation, had been invited to Portugal for the opening of a new national stadium after playing a game in Wales.
