It was an exciting weekend for Canadian football fans with two matches against World Cup opposition. First came Qatar, the 2022 host nation, followed by Uruguay. Canada came away with a good result against the upcoming host nation, winning 2-0, but it did not go their way versus Uruguay, falling 2-0. However, despite the final score, Canada played well against the 13th-ranked team on the FIFA World Rankings. Caroline and Liam react to the weekend score lines and what Canada could take away from it. Liam also had a suggestion on what the best position for Alphonso Davies could be at the World Cup.
Plenty of other international teams played over the weekend, too, including Liam's host nation England. Things weren't great for England, who were relegated to League B in the Nations League. While not scoring goals was an issue for England, most fans decided that Harry Maguire in the starting eleven for both games was a more significant issue. On the show, Caroline and Liam give their opinion on Maguire's future with England and what Gareth Southgate should do with his defenders.
Finally, they dove into Argentina's chances at the World Cup, how the tournament could play out for the European teams and the criticism Cristiano Ronaldo is receiving.
