Herdman expressed his disappointment after the game.

“Disappointed,I just spoke with the lads,” CBC sports quoted Herdman as saying.

“(I) let them know that when you have that type of opportunity in a game, you’ve got to take the chances, you got to win football matches and there’s not going to be any special award for losing games where you have a chance to win them.

“You lose games like that, you’re going to drop out of the World Cup pretty quickly and go home. I’m happy with elements of the performance don’t get us wrong. We’re a great team and we’ve got to take those moments.”

Canada are in Group F at the 2022 FIFA World Cup together with Belgium, Croatia and Morocco.

This is Canada’s second ever FIFA World Cup after only previously participating in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. The Reds didn’t reach the knockout stage in Mexico ’86.
