Alexandre Gangué-Ruzic

a lot doesn't happen.

I think you have to bank on the one who creates chances versus the ones who don't.

Oh, he was unreal against Ireland, right?

That's huge for me because like we mentioned earlier, you asked about the defense and I chose to talk about the attack because I am worried, but the defense has been pretty good.

The system is you play a high line.

The reality is mistakes look bad, right?

If you make a missed assignment and your center back's

below the the opposing you know the the circle yeah okay and he falls over breakaway exactly falls over runs into a teammate you're gonna have breakaways so it's nice to know that maxime cripple he relishes these big moments he's willing to make a big he's one of those goalkeepers and we saw that lafc a few years ago obviously that that will hurt whitecaps fans to have seen it because he went on one in mls cup mls cup and we know how things ended here in vancouver but

He can go 30 minutes, no sweat, right?

Because you're not doing anything and all of a sudden it's breakaway and he's ready.

And that's always such a tough skill for goalkeepers playing in top systems like this where you're going long periods without seeing action, but then you step up.

Against Ireland...

He faced three shots.

One, obviously, was the penalty.

He saved.

The other one was the rebound to the penalty, which went in.

Not much you can do about that.

And the other one was a break in the 83rd minute where the guy's right in front of you with the game on his foot, and you react and make such a good save.

To me, that's super encouraging, that if Kripo's making eight saves or if he's making two, he seems dialed in and locked in to what he's going to do because...

That might be a reality for Canada.
