## Resource

After a successful group stage, the CanMNT's 2026 World Cup journey shifts from Canada to Los Angeles to take on South Africa. Expected to win on paper, this will be a fascinating test for Canada, one where they have a chance to make a massive statement, with most of the country watching Can CanMNT pick up a victory that will forever live on in contrast to the usual frustration and heartbreak? Ben, Brendan and Alex help preview this South Africa match, put into context what this game means and where they think this game could be won or lost for Canada. Against a South African side that is expected to be stingy without the ball, it won’t be an easy match. Canada will need to take the lessons learned from similar matchups as they chase a knockout victory. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
