On the matter of Canada’s Great Effing Controversy, I keep coming back to the counterfactuals.
Or what if, in the three days between games, Herdman had taken the opportunity to offer a fulsome apology for his impolite words?We apologize, but this video has failed to load.If your position is that, yes, it would have, then you also must account for what might have taken place on the pitch in this alternative scenario.
As the match settled and the Croatians grew into it, they seized control. Jonathan Osorio, the Canadian midfielder who was also an injury doubt but came on as a substitute, told reporters in Qatar that their opponents, essentially, figured them out. None of this is to say that Herdman, undoubtedly the best coach that Canada Soccer has ever known, has had a flawless tournament. Leaving the penalty-kick decision to the players in the moment was strangely passive for a meticulous coach, and it cost his team dearly at a moment — early in the Belgium game — when Canada still had its whole World Cup open to it.
Canada’s only hope was that the European powers might be a little old and creaky. Belgium was, Croatia most definitely was not.
