Good Friday morning Caps fans, hope you all are gearing up for a weekend filled with soccer and summer-y weather (perhaps too summer-y if it is 90-plus degrees like it is where I live).
It was a good start to a busy week for the various Canadian national teams, with the men dispatching Suriname 4-0 to top the group and ensure their World Cup Qualifying campaign continues. It was perhaps a slow start but things kicked into gear quickly after Alphonso Davies’ 37th minute goal, with a Jonathan David hat trick supplying the rest of the goals (although Phonzie had a top-drawer assist on one of them).
Australia became the fourth Asian team to advance to the third stage of World Cup qualifying after beating Nepal 3-0 on Friday. Goals from Mathew Leckie, Fran Karacic and Martin Boyle in Kuwait City earned Australia Group B honors and a seventh win out of seven matches. The Australians joined Japan, South Korea and Syria in the next round, scheduled to start in September.
