Canada vs. Jamaica in World Cup qualifying: What you need to know
Canada gets a second chance to clinch a berth at the 2022 FIFA World Cup this weekend, with the added bonus of being able to do it on home soil.

“It’s in the stars to do this at home. … No excuses. It’s in our hands. Destiny is in our hands to go home and qualify at home,” coach John Herdman said after the loss in Costa Rica.
