Buchanan hattrrick in his Villareal debut. (My Inter never gave him a real shot).

David scores on his Juventus debut. Nice deft touch too (though he wasted a bunch of touches earlier).

Super congrats, y'all!

Even getting a game against Romania would have been unthinkable… what… 10 - 15 years ago? We were non entities.

Now we stroll into their national stadium and tonk them.

2009 was the last time we won in Europe in the other teams country. We had a neutral site win since then.

WW2

Think Canada had the third largest navy in the world at the end of WW2 (behind of course the US and Britain). As well as the fourth largest air force. Granted by the end of the war, alot of the various nations navies/armed forces were bombed to smithereens.

Germany might be in trouble.

 

[Volcanologist]

another coach not up to the task it seems.

 

[zeke]
