So that doesn't outright count as a loss because, you know, what was in regulation that counts as a draw.
But that shows that heading into this tournament, I'm not worried about Canada's ability to get draws.
I'm worried about their ability to turn some of those draws into wins.
So absolutely, it's the goal scoring for me.
No, absolutely.
Liam Miller's going to have to be one.
Obviously, with Ali Ahmed not being 100%, although it sounds like he'll be able to play in some form, because Ahmed does a lot of important lifting when he's on the field for Canada, so obviously that's
him missing these last few games has been felt but william miller's gonna have to be one with his dribbling with his energy he gets into good positions just sometimes for him it's always been about the decision making are you shooting instead of passing or passing instead of shooting we saw that a few times against island where again you can't approach the guy because he had confidence he had energy but there's a few shots where you're thinking okay if you're shooting from there you have to hit the target or you have to make that that right you can't put it into the upper deck
No, especially not on a four-on-three where you've got three players around you who would very much love to shoot the ball.
So that's obviously one.
Tayshaun Buchanan as well in the other wing.
He's getting in a lot of good spots, but it's a bit tougher for him at times because he's a bit of a shoot-first player.
Sometimes he wants to take the ball and just drive.
But as a winger in this sort of Canadian system, you need to find these crossing opportunities for your striker.
So I want to see a bit more from Tejan Buchanan.
And I think a lot of onus is going to have to go on the midfielders too.
Ismael Kone in particular, he has the tools to be extremely creative, to break open games easily.
Because up front, obviously the way the system is designed, Jonathan David is being asked to create a lot of chances.
And to his credit, he's doing a good job of that side of his game.
But as we know, he's a good finisher.
