We are used to seeing Herdman be forthright & honest; but he was dishonest in that interview. He was protecting his players; but he really should have called out his players. They have to know that they didn't show up, so they could have taken it.
Canada needs to start their very best players in these matches vs the top teams & start the game on their best foot. The U.S. players on average are much taller. Vitoria, with his size, would have helped in those set pieces. Johnston looks too short defending on those set pieces. He got beaten again, as he did on Belgium's goal in the World cup.
Okay, time for Canada to host some of these Nation League playoff games. Always playing on the road isn't right either.
Let's lift our heads high & learn from this poor experience & move forward & keep progressing.
What Canada needs to realize is that it took the US years to get past Mexico. Canada will need tears to catch up with the US
What was the difference between the gold cup win and this nations league final?
Coaching.
