    RSA - CAN 0-1

    Stephen Eustaquio with the 92nd minute winner. I doubt this match will
    be remembered much outside of Canada.

    You are probably right, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
    On balance perhaps deserved. South Africa had more of the ball, but did
    less with it. They played quite well through Canada's high press early
    on, but when Canada stopped pressing they did not have many ideas on
    what to do with the ball, and this resulted in a lot of passive passing.
    Canada had more shots, more on target, and more corners, and at least 3 scoring chances that were better than the one Eustaquio finished admirably.

    Good news is Alphonso got through about 20 mins, Bombito about 60, so we
    are getting closer to full strength, sans Kon|-. De Fougerolles and
    Cornelius have been far better than I expected, but still are a weak spot.

    Bad news is it is either the Dutch or the Moroccans up next. I hope it
    is Morocco, not because I think they are an easier opponent, but because
    I always enjoy seeing the Dutch self-destruct.
