Johan Manzambi nets to put Switzerland in control vs Canada

In World Cup news, Switzerland and Canada are heading to the knockout round. Playing in front of a sea of red-and-white jerseys in Vancouver, the co-host nation lost two-to-one but has performed well enough in the tournament to advance for the first time ever.

NEW: Canada let the greatest opportunity in the country’s soccer history slip away this afternoon, and it came down to just a few minutes of lost focus. My three winners and three losers from the 2–1 #CanMNT loss to Switzerland. ✍️For @GOAL www.goal.com/en-ca/lists/...

Yes, Canada was missing key players; no, Canada was not the favourite; yes, Canada will play in a men’s World Cup knockout round for the first time. But the 2-1 loss to Switzerland has to be seen as a disappointment, given what they left on the table. www.thestar.com/sports/opini...

4- Johan Manzambi ist in diesem Jahrhundert erst der dritte U21-Spieler mit 4+ Torbeteiligungen (3 Tore, 1 Vorlage) bei einer FIFA-Weltmeisterschaft, nach Kylian Mbappé 2018 (4) und Thomas Müller 2010 (8). Diamant.

Switzerland vs Canada post game thoughts from BC Place. Will we ever see Alphonso Davies for the #CanMNT this tournament?

Despite defeat, man. It was really cool to be apart of something like the FIFA World Cup for your own nation. Probably something I’ll not ever experience again so regardless how the result was, this was surreal to be here ❤️🇨🇦

Just the three goals and one assist (and counting) for Johan Manzambi at the FIFA World Cup. That's our guy.

Absolutely. 4 points against Qatar, Bosnia, and a Switzerland team that lost to Qatar? Canada should be glad they're playing *anywhere* on Earth right now.
