John Herdman’s side was victorious in his first ever truly Concacaf away date, picking up a 1-0 victory over St. Kitts and Nevis. Atiba Hutchinson scored the lone goal for Canada, who for the moment sit second in Concacaf Nations League qualifying.
The win also essentially guarantees Canada a spot in this summer’s Gold Cup, which will serve as an important test for a national team that appears to be on the rise.
It was also a bit closer than a lot of fans would have liked against the 133rd-ranked nation in the world. With all those things in mind, here are some thoughts on the win and what this match means going forward for the team.
