Canada’s 1986 Soccer World Cup Journey
Check out my other sports vids at www.youtube.com/yudothatthing Make sure you Price AND COMMENT!!! Song: Wherever the Streets have no Title Artist: U2 A video I produced of Canada’s very first and only run at the Planet Cup in 1986. It was held in Mexico and Canada shocked numerous by producing it.
@95TMLFAN Well its getting more popular here but Canada will never be like European countries in soccer. Its just Canadian mentality. The Canadian mentality is just not focused enough on the game. We are trapped in our winter. Our winter is the killer to the beautiful game. Thats why hockey was born here in Canada. If you noticed, all the good soccer nations are nations with no actual or not much snowing winter (Brazil, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Dutch, Italy, Uruguay, England etc). BUT GO CANADA
@9xxDARKMIDGETxx9 u know what thank you im canadian an =d im so proud of my team and i hope someday canada (and mexico, which the already did) make it to the world cup or in brazil. maybe de guzman or de rosario will score
PS canadians don always say “eh” ahahhahahahah yup
MEXICO ’70 and MEXICO ’86 the two best World Cups in history !!
im 15..i live in canada. Recently a dome designated for soccer was built in my home town. It is beautiful. We have organized leauges. Houseleague.., and rep for the more skilled players i play rep and we practice in the dome. Soccer is becoming so popular in canada soon we will be just like the european countries and we will make it to the world cup. Hopefully 2014 brazil.
I know a few years back CBC was airing Canadas soccers games during the summer. The ratings were very high as high as NHL hockey games Canadas most popular sport. I enjoyed the games because the crowds were huge and rowdy and the bleachers were a sea of red and white and Canadian flags just like at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic hockey games and the hockey WJC. Come on CBC put the Canadian soccer games back on tv.
Canada for 2014!!
@pero247 Yeah ik, soccer is just more popular in other countries(yes ik obviously). And i wonder, if us and canada were to meet in the world cup i wonder what would happen.
@elsalvadorplaya Good point but most of the immigrants go to the US…
@masterkung1231
okay look, in brazil they arent ‘naturally’ good. they have a league they have someting kids look up to they have facilites they have LOVE for the game they have coaches that teach the game well they have the weather (minor factor) considering other counries liek england, U.S ect..ect.. now with TFC , we have something too look up to, some ppl to look up to , in 1986, we had everything now no, canada will maek the world cup one day. ppl just gotta stop ‘hoping’ cuz nun comes ez
i wish i was alive to see it
@9xxDARKMIDGETxx9 thanks
making the world cup does not make you one of the top teams in the world.
@elsalvadorplaya I would deffinitly not say SUCH a mutli cultural country..mabye toronto
i hope canada can make 2014. During the world cup it seems like everyone else forgets they’re Canadian and everyone puts on their patriotism and wear their national colours of their homeland. If Canada were to qualify i think for once more people would go for the Canadian team rather than our home countries.
CANADA is such a multicultural. We got so many people from Europe like italy portugal poland,people from the middle east, asia , latin america and african all who left there country for a better life in CANADA and thats what CANADA did. My family left EL SALVADOR to came to CANADA looking for a better life and thats what CANADA did for us thank you . United were strong all those who are born in CANADA and plays for there NATIVE country should be deported from CANADA GO CANADA SOCCER
Being born in CANADA I think CANADA could have a good team. If every good soccer player we had didn’t play for there parents country we would good. Those who are playing for there parents country are just giving CANADA a big slap. There parents left there native country to have a better life in CANADA and thats how they pay there respect to CANADA WTF. We should just deport them back to where ever they came from. I’m a salvadorian born in CANADA and united we can go to BRAZIL 2014
the only way canada will ever make the world cup again is if they host it
I am so proud of canadian soccer. We have some great players but Soccer Canada sucks………we need a new regime and need some positive thinkers….we need to change the system …………something has to change………..
@jed1540 It’s okay, and it’s weird all the South American teams havent been playing their best in the past two world cups, Brazil being eliminated in the round of 16 despite playing amazingly in every game before. And yeah I guess you’re right, Canada’s huge, so therefore I would guess a larger chance for more talent. But Brazil, idk it just comes naturally to them, a Brazillian kid moved in my school district and our modified team was undefeated for a while, but he moved again…
@masterkung1231 sorry for my reply, it can be argued because the bigger a country is, there will be a larger talent pool to choose from for example Brazil. Compare to an Italy or a Japan which are much smaller than Brazil, there will be less players. Of the two last teams mentioned, one has won the world cup 4 times and the other best finished was the round of 16. I guess it has to do with the quality of players and how well the teams’ soccer program is structured. I told kyle997923 already
@kyle887923 because they have quality players and a good national soccer program.
@jed1540 Oh yeah I’m the one telling kyle887923 that the size and race doesnt matter so again you should really be telling him, not me. The info you just told me is the same info I told him so to me kind of pointless, to him…lol he needs it, lmao.
@jed1540 Yeah dude I know you should really be replying to kyle997923, he’s the one thinking the size of a country matters to the skill. I mean dude no offense you should really carefully read my comments before you start saying I’m wrong, cuz I never said being black means you’re good or the size of a country means you’re good, take China as an example they’re pretty huge but they suck at soccer.
@ElCanuque I guess the organizers should give it a try, I remember one year Mexico and America were co-hosts. Talks are being made for Jamaica to host the under 17 World Cup Qualifiers for this year.
@masterkung1231 being good at soccer doesn’t have anything to do with black, white ,hispanic or any other race. What matters are tactics, techniques , skills and discipline. Well the 2014 qualifiers will be starting 2012 so let us see.
