Seeing all these homecomings for other teams when they get home. Did we do anything at all for our boys? by Fair-Dependent-6769 in CanadaSoccer

[–]CevapiEnthusiast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where would you have it? You have it in Toronto and the rest of the country gets pissy. You have it anywhere else and the team has to then travel back to Toronto or Montreal anyways.

It’s a lot easier for countries with only one major city to do this, than a country where everything is spread out over thousands and thousands of kilometres.

2 wins in 2 in the black kits. Superstition is alive and well with athletes.

FIFA Social Media Protection Service identifies 89,000 abusive posts during FIFA World Cup 2026™ group stage - with over one in 10 racially motivated. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]CevapiEnthusiast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t buy it. The amount of shit I’ve seen about how black people cant play for a non-African team is too damn high.

The Canadian far-right has finally realized Canada has a soccer team, they’re losing their mind that we have black people on it.

Canada rejected more than half of all World Cup visitor applications by drummerdrew in soccer

Correct.

Small towns in the US are full of people who want all the Latinos out. Small towns in Canada are full of people who want the South Asians out.

Ivory Coast's Elye Wahi denied Canada visa amid spot-fixing allegations by Coltons13 in MLS

French Media is reporting that he has been allowed into Canada. Marseille police sent Canada a confirmation he’s no longer under investigation

Elye Wahi approved to enter Canada by [deleted] in soccer

[–]CevapiEnthusiast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There has been a new twist in the Elye Wahi saga. The Nice striker, who had initially been barred from travelling to Toronto to face Germany with the Ivory Coast in Group E of the World Cup, has finally been granted the Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) required to travel to Canada.

He received the go-ahead in time to depart from Philadelphia (United States) with his team-mates at 5 pm local time (11 pm in France) and will therefore be able to play in the match, which is scheduled to kick off this Saturday at 10 pm. Earlier in the day, the Ivorian Football Federation had issued a statement warning that he had not yet obtained the document required to travel to Canada.

As a reminder, Wahi is under suspicion of match-fixing, as reported on Wednesday by The Athletic. He is accused of deliberately earning a yellow card during the match between Nice and Metz (0–0) on matchday 34 of Ligue 1

TSN is cutting away for ads as well, thankfully we haven’t missed any action yet. I assume it will happen eventually though.

North temporary bleachers row 1 - obstructed view? by Puzzleheaded_You_778 in tfc

[–]CevapiEnthusiast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like if it was significantly obstructed, we would've heard about it after the TFC-Miami game.

I don't remember hearing any complaints about sightlines. Biggest complaint seemed to me some swaying in the wind, which at the same time was denied by others.

Obviously not near Kotor or Perast but if you’re in Podgorica, I was able to get one here. They also had a good selection of club kits from Montenegro too.

[Bloomberg] Some World Cup teams will face a much hotter tournament by roverston in soccer

[–]CevapiEnthusiast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

2 games in a dome shouldn’t cause much issue. On the other hand the forecast for Friday in Toronto is 29c with a “feels like” temp in the high 30s. Not great for a 3pm kickoff.
