## Resource

For the first time ever, the CanMNT have picked up a World Cup point, drawing Bosnia & Herzegovina 1-1 in their 2026 tournament opener at Toronto Stadium. Bosnia were dangerous on set-pieces, and punished Canada early. But Jesse Marsch's CanMNT responded well, eventually finding an equalizer through Cyle Larin, who picked a perfect time to bust a near two-year goal drought with Canada.  Ben, Brendan and Alex dive into all of the key storylines from the match, as they break down how Marsch changed the game with aggressive substitutions, Canada’s excellence from open play, what went wrong on the set pieces, and what this point means for Canada heading west to Vancouver.
