A point would have been enough for the Canadians, but instead the hosts made short work of underdog Jamaica, who had long been out of the draw in the final round at Toronto’s BMO Field.

The nation coached by Englishman John Herdman, who had always been ahead of the two big and famous football teams of the United States and Mexico in the tableau, pushed the guest back from the start. Powerful, creative and to many degrees, Canada always approached Blake’s case. The early goals included: after a good pass from Eustaquio, it was Larin who freed up in front of the goal to make it 1–0 (13th minute).

The only disdain that could be done against the favourites: the conversion of opportunities was too bad, let alone Larrin could put together a three-pack. But it took until the 44th minute for Buchanan to clear the last remaining doubts about his participation in the World Cup. With the help of Jamaica’s Mariappa leading the ball directly in front of his feet, the offensive man found the ball and pushed it over the line from close to make it 2-0 (44th).

The second 45 minutes turned into a show in Torono’s madhouse – on this historic day there are two icing on the cake: First, Hoillet, who had previously been active for FC St Pauli between 2008 and 2009 (now FC Reading), hit the ball. processed. Fine left and flowing movement (82nd) ​​in the penalty area recklessly completed a 3-0 goal in the right corner. The final point then went to the unlucky Jamaican Mariappa, who without any problem fired a cross pass into his own goal (88′).

Canada scored 4–0, although the result on the scoreboard did not matter at all. More important: With this trio, the nation achieved its first World Cup participation since 1986 (preliminary round in Mexico) – and can now look forward to the Winter World Cup in Qatar.
