I don't know why either, maybe Mancini thought Immobile would come around. Maybe its fixed. Jorginho missed 2 penalties months ago, that could've let Italy go thru.
World Cup Soccer 2022
- Thread starter unassuming
- Start date
Canada is going to the world cup, Italy isn't. I thought I could ever say that in a million years.
It was built from the ground up, John Herdman persuaded most of the core talent to play for Canada - except one.
Oh well, at least Bryan Cristante has the Euro to console him.

Canada attacks directly, Italy stops and passes the ball around in the mid-field for 20 minutes.
Is Canada ranked higher than Italy now? Now that would be an embarrassment.

Two World Cups in a row that they've missed.
I can't imagine how much more embarrassed they could get.
If they do have more room for embarrassment, they're shameless, Canada has earned the right to be on stage with the big boys.

Looks like it for now. With possibly Japan , Iran , South Korea. And maybe Spain?
Yesterday Samuel Piette said on an interview that the players wouldn't mind having great soccer nation in their group. They dream of playing France, England or Argentina

Well Portugal and Poland are through, Wales, Scotland and Ukraine will have to wait until June I think.
It's a big test to prepare for 2026
Most player will actually be in their prime in 2026. And some newcomers will pop up. But in Qatar will Canada make a Costa Rica 2014 type run? That would so cool
