Were the boys on vacation??
9/4/15

Canada drew the Bahamas by a score of 2-2. The team looked way too relaxed and not focused enough. Lucky the other match between Haiti and Cayman Islands drew too.

"Obviously we are pissed off but since I played a lot of younger players I am pleased they played well, in the next match we are hoping to get back with a W."-Mike Korrigan

Congratulations Julian

The 34 year old defender has broken the Canadian caps record, having made his 85th international appearance in the recent match against the Bahamas. Paul Stalteri previously held the record with 84 caps. Congratulations Julian.
