but it's at most half the stadium.
Like this is going to be 50,000 Canadian fans and maybe 4,000 Swiss fans where you're not going to be able to hear Switzerland.
The weird dynamic is going to be Switzerland's wearing red, the stadium will be red, and Canada's wearing white.
So unfortunately, that's the way it was planned out before the tournament.
It's about the same.
I mean, it's red and white.
There's only so much you can do with red and white, right?
Yeah.
But I think it's a massive advantage to be playing at home for this Canadian team.
Morning, boys.
It's certainly an exciting time in, I guess, every sport at this point with the news coming out of Edmonton, but Canadian soccer on an absolute high right now.
Well, I was at training a couple of times this week and both these guys looked quite good.
The difficulty with both of them is how do they look in a match?
And I don't think we can really consider what Moise Bombido did against Qatar as a proper run out because there wasn't much defending to do in that game when he came on in the second half.
And so I wouldn't necessarily start either of them.
Jesse Marsh did say,
last week that Alphonso Davies wouldn't start against Switzerland and they were targeting the round of 32 for that of course they are now going through to the round of 32 barring anything absolutely exceptional I think would have to be around a 7-0 win for Qatar for them not to get there and that's not going to happen but with Davies I think you still want to be careful and the same with Bombido but you do want to get both of them significant minutes because as high stakes as this is
it's still the lowest stakes because there's not elimination on the line at this point.
So I wouldn't be surprised to see both play the majority of the second half, at least coming on in the 60th minute, maybe even halftime.
With Moise Bombido, it's a broken leg that he suffered in October.
