Ismael Kone, 20, shows off skill, potential with Canadian men’s soccer team
Kone showed off his speed and power Tuesday in a head-turning outing in the Canadian midfield with Stephen Eustaquio and Jonathan Osorio as Canada defeated Honduras 4-1 in CONCACAF Nations League play.
Kone is also winning fans in England, having signed a 4 1/2-year contract with second-tier Watford in December after seeing action in all three of Canada’s games at the World Cup in Qatar. “When he came into the World Cup, he had like 100 minutes [playing time with Besiktas] in four months‚” said coach John Herdman. “I mean, that’s not Cyle Larin. It wasn’t the Cyle Larin we saw going though World Cup qualification.
Larin, a former MLS rookie of the year with Orlando City, tops the Canadian men’s all-time scoring list with 28 goals in 60 appearances.“He’s going to go in a high, I know that for sure,” Herdman said.Defender Scott Kennedy was hard to miss in Canada’s recent CONCACAF Nations League games.
