Uruguay is coming off a bitter loss to Iran and draws a Canadian squad that hasn't had much in the way of recent game action. Canada hasn't played a South American side in over a decade and this match should prove too much for them.
Canada’s 2-0 win over Qatar on Friday quelled worries about how the team would react to being idle since a disheartening 2-1 loss to Honduras in a CONCACAF Nations League match in mid-June. The lack of match practice combined with cancellations of two friendlies mired in controversy could have unsettled the players leading into Friday’s friendly.
You’d have to roll back the clock 22 years to source the last time Canada beat a South American opponent. That win came against Colombia in the Gold Cup 2000 final, a result that will forever be regarded as one of the nation’s most important and unexpected. Canada has shown a new-found resilience and ability to win in the face of stiff adversity during Herdman’s reign. Even without Atiba Hutchinson and Jonathan Osorio, Canada’s go-to midfield pair, Les Rouges dominated Qatar thanks to a proficient first half from stand-in pair Stephen Eustaquio and Samuel Piette.
