Canada is one of 18 CONCACAF nations still in the hunt for a spot at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. The top three will qualify automatically while the fourth-best team will advance to an intercontinental playoff for a spot at Russia 2018.
In this 2015 CONCACAF Round 3 of FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, 12 nations are paired in head-to-head elimination rounds, with the home-and-away matches to be played on 4 and 8 September. Canada faces Belize at home on Friday, then plays away at FFB Stadium in Belmopan, BLZ on Tuesday.
Said Canadian coach Benito Floro, "we must respect Belize and consider that they are serious, young, in good physical condition, and have three or four players with good skill. We need to keep our focus to pass through this elimination phase."
The winner of the Canada-Belize series will advance to group A in CONCACAF Round 4, joining Mexico, Honduras and the winner of the Curaçao-El Salvador series. Additional information including a list of countries and fixtures is available atFIFA.com.
As for Friday night, the home team will be wearing their #CanadaRED jerseys at BMO Field. Fans are encouraged to follow @CanadaSoccerEN on Twitter using #canMNT for Canadian team updates.
