CANADA CRUISING
The Canadians have been firing on all cylinders, cruising to consecutive 4-1 wins to place themselves in pole position. They kicked off its group play with a 4-1 opening Gold Cup win over Martinique on Sunday. After Mark-Anthony Kaye’s back pass attempt was intercepted by Sebastien Cretinoir that allowed the Caribbean side to grab a 10th-minute lead on Emmanuel Riviere's goal, Les Rouges bounced back with four unanswered goals. Cyle Larin, Jonathan Osorio, Stephen Eustáquio and Theo Theo Corbeanu did the damage.
In their Thursday night win, Larin recorded a brace after Eustáquio put his name on the scoresheet, with Junior Hoilett closed out the scoring.
