Canada Starts Tournament With Win

How is it that some teams in the soccer world can play so well in one tournament and so poorly in another. Canada had a dismal display in their World Cup Qualifiers and have not qualified for the World Cup since 1986. In the Gold Cup, they consistently go deep into the tournament. The Canadians took on Jamaica who they were thrashed by in qualifiers, the Canucks gave a much more spirited display. They were very organized at the back and did a great job keeping possession of the ball. Jamaica did create chances however, and were unlucky not to have scored. Canada had plenty of chances as well and got the break through in the 75th minute on a well taken goal by Gerba. With the win Canada now have a great shot at qualifying for the next round, while Jamaica face an uphill task.
