    Gold Cup started today. Canada over French Guiana 4-2 and Costa Rica over Honduras 1-0.

    Alphonso Davies scored two goals for Canada at the age of sixteen, becoming the youngest ever player to score for Canada and the youngest player ever to score at any major senior tournament. Kid is going to be a player. Get on him Celtic.

    Davies strikes again against Costa Rica, turning Celtic's own Gamboa into a pylon.

    Kid looks special. One Celtic should be keeping an eye on. Does not look or play like a 16 year old.

    This is the best I've ever seen the Canadian National team play. Moving the ball well and controlling the game for the most part.

    Inherent problem is we just don't have enough quality. Our crossing has been terrible and we have no one who can head a ball to begin with. We rely on our strikers for the majority of our chances as we have no other sources of goals.

    Not sure if Fraser Aird is on the bench, but I'd get him on in favour of Tiebert or Piette.

    1-0 Jamaica at half time.
