3 Takeaways as Canada Defeat Trinidad 2-0, Qualify for Copa America
3 Takeaways as Canada Defeat Trinidad 2-0, Qualify for Copa America By: Adam Iannetta It wasn’t straightforward, but Canada got the job done. Trinidad and Tobago, ranked 96th in the world coming into the game, were supposed to be no match for a Canadian attack that featured the firepower of Alphonso Davies, Jonathan David, Cyle Larin, and Tajon Buchanan.
