    Tough game this tonight. With Poland away in this break too we've got a great chance to essentially seal qualification this week.

    Stay tuned at 1am GMT for updates, in exhaustive and excruciating detail, from Canada's opening match of the Octagonal tonight, against Honduras.

    And there's good news! Because the CONCACAF scheduling is an absolute clusterfuck, you'll also get minute-by-minute updates on Sunday, when Canada plays the US, and then again on Wednesday, when Canada hosts El Salvador. And then in October, you'll get updates on three more matches in the span of a week! Rejoice! All the Canadian football updates you can handle and then far, far more!

    Glad the loverly Hungarian fans are enjoying the game.

    I almost like Rice after his response to the cup throwing -

    Great result this, even if aided by some poor goalkeeping.

    They're already on a punishment from Uefa, it just didn't apply tonight because this is Fifa.

    That goalkeeper is captain for a champions league side...

    Let that sink in

    Honestly, we complain but McCarthy does better than that tonight. Even without a word of Hungarian

    Spare a thought for Andorra. In their entire history of competitive football, they have never scored 3 goals in a match. They went up 2-0 against San Marino within 24 minutes today, and had all the time in the world to achieve the impossible dream of scoring more goals than they can count on just their index fingers. And the final score was...2-0. Their joint-best result alongside the other three times they've won 2-0.

    Bloody hell was not expecting that scoreline. Well done the lads! Was nervous about this game, but going on the highlights could have scored 6 or 7.

    Literally the first thing I saw after getting home was Canada surrendering a pen and going 1-0 down at home. Actual talent or no, this is still the Canadian men's national team. Nature is healing.

    I'm not a huge tennis person, but I feel confident in stating that Carlos Alcaraz is going to win a whole bunch of majors. Just an absurd display of precision shot-making from an 18 year old to beat the #3 seed in the US Open.

    I put it in the right thread because who has time to read all four words in a thread title anyway. ARE YOU HAPPY!?

    Also I won't edit the post because that is admitting defeat.

    I wish I had that excuse for posting in the wrong thread. I'm just a bit dim.
