Deserved win overall I think. Although as soon as Davies came on, 90% of the play was "try to pass him the ball". That'll have to change for the next game.

RSA seemed to be waiting for penalties, so screw them. To dare is to do!

Canada's 24 striker would've lost his place in my team for general incompetency, but it was a deserved win. Nice strike, too. Canada's 7 man of the match for me. I do question both teams' tactical choices, though, but in the end Canadian pluck beat South Africa's rather negative and cynical time-wasting/counter-attacks (that were poorly executed despite having 5 or 6 players against 3 or 4).

South Africa's right back, 20, he looked so much older than a lot of the players. I imagined him being a homicide police in Cape Town, nearing retirement. I am sure he had a Marlboro after the game.
