TORONTO – John Herdman didn’t mince words ahead of the Canadian men’s team’s finale in Concacaf Nations League qualifying.

Herdman made it crystal clear earlier this week that Canada couldn’t afford to rest on its laurels after competing in last year’s FIFA World Cup, and that being “Kings of Concacaf is the overarching theme,” especially with the country set to co-host the 2026 World Cup.

“We want to win something this year. We've got to make statements like that," Herdman bluntly stated.

Canada will get a chance to win its first continental trophy since lifting the Gold Cup in 2000 after it posted a convincing 4-1 win over Honduras on Tuesday night before an announced crowd of 13,626.
