Saved four, didn't he, in the shootout at AFCON a couple of tournaments ago?
So, yeah, and it may be a bit of an attack v defence match, to be honest.
You know, Canada are all about those sort of overlaps and vertical quick play and their strength, as Josh was saying, is in attack.
I think it's a real shame this game isn't in Canada from their point of view.
I think if you look at America's draw, wherever the US finished in their group, first, second or third, their path would have been all American all the way to the final.
and you know there is another game in this round of 32 being played in Toronto and I don't think it would have been too hard for sort of the runners-up of this group to play in Toronto in the next round it's just okay fine you can talk about home advantage but it's just better for the tournament that the hosts play in their home country so yeah
That is a shame and it will definitely add a different dynamic to the match.
You know, Art talks about sort of game management and Canada have really been feeding off that crowd in their home games in the group stage.
So yeah, that's definitely to South Africa's advantage that it's not been played in Canada.
I'm going to get the plane, not a boat, for a start.
It's just quicker.
It just makes more sense.
Yeah, no, I can't wait to get out of there.
We discussed, Adam, in the last pod that the group stage, certainly towards the end, was a slight disappointment with a lack of jeopardy.
But if you look at that, some of the last 32 ties that we've got, and for an English audience as well, I have to say, even though I'm setting sail, as you say, to America, for an English audience, lots more games now at more reasonable times.
I feel like the tournament's
This is an international show, obviously, but I feel like the tournament's really going to sort of kick off back home now as well.
And yeah, we're all set.
We're all set, Adam.
