We have a saying, Stevie and I, if we go out, we'll just have just a couple, nothing daft.

So that's what we'll be doing tonight.

Just a couple, nothing daft.

Yeah, I was at the Canada game yesterday, the opener against Bosnia.

And yeah, I managed to travel a little further west off the back of that last night.

And now, yeah, ready today.

I'm actually looking forward to today towards Turkey and Australia.

So yeah, it's been a long few hours, but just trying to get adjusted now, John.

That's the way it is.

Yeah, well, up until, I mean, I don't live in Toronto really, so I'm quite far out of the city.

But this week I was down in the city, maybe Wednesday, Thursday, prior to, it was actually probably Tuesday, Wednesday earlier on this week, prior to the game against Bosnia.

And it was the first time I really got a feeling that the city was ready, that the city was prepared for the World Cup and a feeling that maybe the supporters were ready for it.

And of course, then when the game starts and you get the feeling of we're ready and we're going to go into a game that we need to go and win.

Other than that, it was an incredible thing yesterday, John.

It was extremely exciting.

um exciting to be part of the world cup and to be part of the the atmosphere yesterday that um that canada were prepared for it was great it was um a feeling that canada naturally now already they're prepared for for qatar they're prepared for switzerland beyond yesterday against bosnia and i i genuinely do feel now there was uh

I don't know, maybe a little bit of a buzz in the country, John.

That's how it felt to me yesterday, certainly prior to the game, but almost certainly afterwards, after the result yesterday, the first point in Canada's history in World Cup football.
