Canada has a long way to go if they want to catch up to the US and their soccer history.

We have NFL. You have Canadian Football (which no one watches). We have the NBA. You have some other weird league (which no one watches). We have MLB. You have...(something no one watches). You have NHL but 95% of the teams are in the US. We took over your only league. We own you. Accept it. |

You’re right, that would be a really odd comparison. |

So no, I don’t think Canada soccer has to do the equivalent of that at all given USA’s own relatively meagre history at the sport. |

That's a narrative you included because your soccer history is terrible. |

They have made a movie equivalent to this Canadian Copa run the more I think about it. It’s called Cool Runnings. A group of nobodies that nobody believed in, that crashed before the finish line, but they managed to exceed the lowest expectations possible so the country became delusional with pride. |

Canada (31) now ahead of sorry USA (32) for the first time in history. Will be Mexico next by this time next year. The changing of the guard has begun. |
