00:05How to go to start as any for Iceland that certainly can't say the same for Canada.
00:13Bad error. Kamal Miller led to the opener.
00:19Ellison winning the midfield battle against the Gore and sending Oskarsson doubled the lead.
00:35David. Chouinier. Miller.
00:44Fight for Ahmed.
00:46Found some success for Canada.
00:48Off the foot of Ahmed. Ahmed and Lahren go back and forth. Lahren with a cross in.
00:54Cleared away by Magnussen.
01:00Hit well from a sharp ankle.
01:08It's his side of corner.
01:19Delivery. Top of the box. There's bodies.
01:23And Lahren had a chance.
01:31That's cleared off the line.
01:34Check the replay.
01:37Just couldn't find quite solid connection.
01:42Ellerson did well to get a piece of it.
01:44Change the angle.
01:45Off the shoulder of Lahren.
01:48Canada nearly had there.
01:52Deficit cut in half.
01:53But there came from Lahren.
01:57Tessa.
01:58And then there's one.
02:00One.
02:02Two.
02:03One.
02:04Two.
02:05One.
02:06One.
02:06Two.
02:06Two.
02:06Three.
02:06Two.
02:07Two.
02:09Two.
02:12One.
02:19Two.
02:20Heavy contact with Haraldsson.
02:25Looked as though maybe there was extra activity from the referee.
02:30It looks like it'll just be a common foul.
02:32But...
02:40Heavy contact between the two.
02:52�
02:54Nice.
03:02Yes, yes.
03:17You did, you did!
03:23St. Clair looking to jump start.
03:28Counter attack, but cut off is the pass of Cigar.
03:37I think it's in the back of all of some Magnussen.
03:55Canada again with pressure, deep in Iceland defending third and now could that be the
04:03error that they capitalized on? A clearance from Ellertsen deflects off his own player.
04:10Similar to Iceland's opening goal came off of a mistake for the back line. Will it be
04:18answered? Buchanan with the throw.
04:23Wannerman's there but it doesn't get to him.
04:31That's clever from Ahmed but he's taken down. A free kick will be awarded.
04:36Looks like there could be more.
04:41Northstein's son draws our first yellow card of the match as Ahmed in a dangerous
04:46area is taken down. And Canada have a real opportunity to cut this lead in half.
04:53A real angle on the ball and the referee feels as though he'd seen enough.
05:01It's out of full.
05:05McDonald's.
05:07China has found...
05:09September 2nd...
05:27Daryl Cornelius is in the lineup tonight.
05:31Replays of his goal over Wales are still being played to this day, but
05:38there will be a chance for another to be added to that reel.
05:42Looks to be Schoenier.
05:47Larea in the area as well.
05:51Schoenier on target!
05:53Just misses that top corner.
06:01Well-struck from Schoenier as we can see, just a bit high and a bit wide.
06:14Dangerous chance.
06:49St. Clair looks long for Buchanan intercepted.
06:54Saliba was there.
06:55Laren couldn't shed his mark.
06:58St. Clair looks long for Buchanan intercepted.
07:01He's well dribbled to the top of the 18.
07:04Sloppy from Iceland here on the restart.
07:07Nearly cost him once again.
07:11Ahmed now.
07:13And he intercepted that pass.
07:17Iceland will get out of it.
07:20Flex off of Laren and...
07:23Goal kick.
07:27A good piece of pressure from Canada.
07:32Had Iceland reeling in their own third.
07:35Defensive third round.
07:47The next one here combined.
07:49Combined Saliba.
07:53Mosegur dispossessed by Linsen.
08:00Linsen does well.
08:02Heralta rather.
08:04Ahmed as well with some skill.
08:06Looking inside for Laren.
08:10Last intercepted.
08:11All the way back for Miller.
08:16Miller ways his options.
08:17Find St. Clair.
08:22Waterman.
08:23St. Clair go back and forth.
08:25Oskarsson is dangerous and in the area.
08:27Cleared away.
08:29Sinclair.
08:30Balls to David.
08:32Can he thread the needle?
08:33He can't.
08:35Makes the ball.
08:36A good ball.
08:36Wins it back.
08:37Buchanan.
08:40Just inches away.
08:44Capitalizing on an errant pass.
08:49From Iceland.
08:53Reminiscent of the match's opening goal.
09:05Charnier.
09:08Takes the contact from Heralta.
09:14Once again a problem with the restart.
09:17Ball still moving in referee John Freeman's eyes.
09:22Just to make sure everything's above board.
09:24Saliba.
09:25Has Buchanan.
09:26There was contact.
09:27Will it get called back?
09:29Won't matter it seems as Buchanan.
09:42After some more contact.
09:47Buchanan.
09:49Did win that throw.
09:52Very close to the corner flag.
09:57Lots of bodies scattered inside the 18 for Canada.
10:03Delivery.
10:04Looking for Waterman close to Flex.
10:05Charnier up in the air.
10:08Couldn't connect.
10:10Get on the same page.
10:12Could the Canadian attack.
10:14It's Iceland now.
10:15Back going the other way.
10:25Pass.
10:26Skips out of David's reach.
10:28The pressure.
10:32Staying on.
10:33North Canada.
10:37Segur.
10:41Buchanan.
10:42And Segur.
10:43Buchanan collides.
10:45With Glintzen.
10:47No whistle blown.
10:48Referee says play on.
10:49Waterman.
10:50Back for Buchanan.
10:53Canada really pressing the issue here.
10:57Just the final few minutes.
10:59Before halftime.
11:05Waterman.
11:07Crosses in.
11:09Lahren's there.
11:10Can't keep it on.
11:13What a good effort.
11:25Kick it.
11:28Kick it.
11:31Kick it.
11:41Kick it.
11:55All of a sudden gets us back underway.
11:57He's unhappy with his own delivery.
12:00It's one back.
12:01By Larea.
12:09Saliba.
12:10Slick move.
12:12Nearly was dispossessed.
12:14But keeps possession.
12:15Buchanan now.
12:16And Ellertsen going back and forth.
12:17Last touch.
12:19The Icelandic left back.
12:20Quickly brought back in.
12:21By Buchanan.
12:26Waterman.
12:30Lance Segur.
12:33Over the top now.
12:34Over the top now.
12:34For Buchanan.
12:35And Ellertsen going back and forth.
12:37Once again.
12:38These two.
12:39Had quite the battle.
12:40And the hand comes up from Buchanan.
12:43A foul called.
12:46Well, well, well from either side.
12:49Just two competitors.
12:53Their skills on display.
12:55Notice if he gets the better of it this time around.
12:57But the other side of it is a bit too short.
12:58For the last touch.
12:59There was a sin.
12:59There was a man of it.
12:59With a city.
12:59Burp down.
13:04I'll cut.
13:05Good run.
13:06Good run.
13:06It's a big Francisco.
13:09This guy.
13:11No!
13:13This guy!
13:14No!
13:17No!
13:18No!
13:18No!
13:18No!
13:20No!
13:22No!
13:26No, no!
13:42Jucanon does well to win it back, ultimately gives it away back to Paulsen.
13:50Thorstein's son, had to be quick about it, Paulsen now surrounded, pressure in the midfield
13:58and Ahmed, a hard collision.
14:06Thorstein's son, just giving a yellow for some hard contact on Ahmed, just minutes ago.
14:23Magnussen, over the top, Waterman's there, there's it safely, with a near sideline.
14:37Nice touch from Saliba, Iceland will do it again, just further down.
14:44The sideline, Waterman, Wittlamsen maybe, exchanging pleasantries.
15:10David.
15:14Larea.
15:17Laren Ahmed.
15:19Hoping to advance it quickly, had Larea streaking down the far sideline.
15:24Nice intercepted, Saliba, hoping to keep the pressure on the air.
15:28Good touch to keep it inside.
15:30There'll be just two minutes of added time in this first half.
15:35kind of pressing, but so far, no real attempt on the goalkeeper.
15:44Waterman, Oskarsson, Iceland's goal scorer Clyde.
15:51Foul called on Waterman, he's been unhappy since the opening few minutes, as he feels there's
15:58a few calls that should have been given his way, and they weren't.
16:03Now he's being called late in the first half.
16:13Once again, Iceland, up two.
16:19Halftime just moments away, obviously at no rush to restart things.
16:43David with the pressure.
16:45Horses Haraldsson, and all of a sudden they go back and forth.
16:48With Magnussen now, back to his keeper.
16:50Laren was closing.
16:57Have to keep an eye on the press of Canada and see if they slowly but surely wear down this
17:04Icelandic back line and start causing turnovers in dangerous areas.
17:09But as of right now, back line is held Canada.
17:21Moments away now, heading into halftime, down 2-0.
17:29There it is, the halftime whistle.
17:33A first half brace from Ori Oskarsson.
17:39Canada is reeling and looking for answers in the second half.
17:4875th world ranked Iceland holding a two goal advantage over the 29th ranked Canada.
17:55as we're heading into halftime.
17:58Iceland 2, Canada 0.
18:13Welcome back to our second half of action.
18:15Iceland lead Canada 2-0.
18:19It's preparations for the 2026 World Cup.
18:26Off to the best start here for Canada, where Iceland will be playing in the UEFA Nations League in September
18:34of this year.
18:35The operations have gone well on their account.
18:41A pair of goals from Ori Oskarsson.
18:47And Iceland up 2-0.
18:58Osteinsson collides with Larea.
19:03Last touch off of Canadian fullback.
19:07Iceland will keep possession once Dorsteinsson is back to his feet.
19:28Osteinsson now.
19:29And Larea getting tangled up and there might be some extracurriculars.
19:36curriculars.
19:43Well Miller seemed to be getting a
19:45stirred talking to from
19:48Jeffrey John Friedman.
20:31One year up the sideline to connect
20:35with Buchanan or Saliba.
20:38Saliba now picking up the whistle
20:40as his collision with Haraldson
20:44draws the whistle.
20:46Playback quickly underway,
20:49but Bernstein Sun is ruled offside.
20:55I think that is our first offside of the match.
20:59Both teams have done well timing their runs.
21:13They're shielding, but loses it for covered by Saliba,
21:18but back to the foot now.
21:21Alien error on the Icelandic back line.
21:24He's been so steady through that first half.
21:29Buchanan and Ellertson once again going back and forth,
21:34and Ellertson collides with Saliba.
21:58Paulsen looking for Paulsen who did well to get ahead on it.
22:02Miller.
22:05Skarsson.
22:07Hittlundsen.
22:09David trying to spring Laren.
22:12Has a step.
22:14Does Laren, but he's surrounded by Icelandic defenders
22:18and last touch off of Magnussen.
22:22It'll be a corner for Canada.
22:33Kyle Laren.
22:34Part of the 2022 World Cup squad that...
22:40He cemented Canada among the world's best.
22:4788 caps now.
22:49Our country.
22:50Third all time.
22:5130 goals have him second.
22:53And he nearly added another there.
23:02Great delivery back post.
23:04Laren just couldn't put it on target.
23:28Looks as though Hittlundsen under some duress.
23:34Common foul was called.
23:41Take another look.
23:43Exactly what went on.
23:44Looked like the foot.
23:46Schwanier possibly.
23:48Though it was his knee he was clutching.
24:08But it was Iceland that put the ball out with their injured player.
24:12Canada returns it.
24:14Keeps play.
24:18Back to where it was before the injury.
24:25Back to where it was before the injury.
24:44Back to Cigurh.
24:47Crafty bit of work from Canada.
24:50Buchanan now.
24:51Working one on two.
24:53We know how he can dance and he still has possession far sideline.
24:57Buchanan stops.
24:59Waits for reinforcements.
25:01Crosses in and deflects out.
25:04By Ellersen.
25:05And it stays in now.
25:06Buchanan still having to dance.
25:08And his deflects once again.
25:11Did not deflect rather.
25:14Buchanan.
25:16Under some duress.
25:17You can see there was a point where he stops.
25:19And looked as though he might have tweaked something.
25:21And take a look at the footwork.
25:25Where that pain might have started.
25:27Right there.
25:28Stops and composes himself.
25:30Well done to keep it on.
25:34Looks like he'll be alright.
25:37Stays in the match.
25:41Wonderful talent on display.
25:44From the Villarreal forward.
26:01St. Clair.
26:05Now Miller.
26:07Larea.
26:14Larea harassed all the way up the pitch.
26:16Turns it over.
26:17The late whistle does come in.
26:21See Iceland.
26:23Thought they had defended cleanly.
26:24And Larea.
26:27Up to his usual tricks.
26:29Renewing acquaintances.
26:31With Vithamson.
26:41Zaliba does well.
26:42Finds Larea.
26:43Larea's got a clear path.
26:45Looking for the cross.
26:46It was behind.
26:47Both Laren and Buchanan.
26:49Who seem to be wide open.
26:51Heading into the box.
26:54Can Canada.
26:56Keep on the attack.
27:01Soigneur for Waterman.
27:02Miller directs traffic.
27:04Zaliba.
27:05Looking inside.
27:06Segur's there.
27:07He's got a step.
27:08And Magnussen wins the race.
27:16Segur was called for a foul on the slide.
27:18We'll see it again.
27:21Unable to make contact.
27:23And just takes out the legs.
27:24But.
27:24Check out this ball.
27:25Larea.
27:28Just wasn't quite on.
27:29It was.
27:31Behind the first wave.
27:32And in front of the second.
27:36They are not happy.
27:38With the delivery.
28:00Miller has to hustle.
28:02Turns it over again.
28:04Dorsteinsson.
28:06Dorsteinsson.
28:08Paulson.
28:08But his cross was.
28:10Deflected by Ahmed.
28:11Although it stays with Iceland.
28:15Inkusens passes off.
28:17Zaliba shielding off Wittlamsson.
28:20Gets hauled down.
28:22Free kick for Canada.
28:22They'll want to work quickly.
28:23And you see it there on the restart.
28:26Still stuck too.
28:29out of the Canadiens.
28:43St. Clair for Ahmed.
28:46Thought it was a little too high and there was a collision
28:49on the inner sideline.
28:56Taking a look, Paulson and Ahmed collide.
29:08Paulson, veteran defender for Iceland, making his 57th appearance for his country.
29:24David was close on the interception, but Magnusson clears it up and away.
29:32The area for Oskarsson, but...
30:04Crowd here in Toronto.
30:05No.
