Canada has waited a very long time for this moment, 36 years to be exact. The country’s spirits for the World Cup are higher than ever because the men’s national team are about to make just their second appearance in the world’s biggest sporting event. In 1986, Canada was seen as a hockey nation — but now, it’s a country that has an unbridled passion for soccer.
Les Rouges were drawn into arguably one of the toughest groups for this World Cup, being put into Group F amongst two strong European nations in Belgium and Croatia, and African side Morocco.
