Nostalgia for the legend of the Canadian national team was once underestimated when it comes to defending the name of the country: there is no point not participating in the World Cup!

Bola.com, Jakarta – The Canadian national team is one of the countries that has not played for a long time world Cup but will perform in Qatar later this year.

Yes, before confirming mentas on world Cup 2022, Canada last appeared at this event every four years in the 1986 edition.

It is known, football is not the number one sport in Canada. People there prefer hockey to football.

Even Canadian footballers who have played in Europe have been forgotten every time they wanted to strengthen the national team. This treatment was earned by Canadian national team legend Alex Bunbury.

Alex Bunbury recounted the moment above, he edged out the 1994 World Cup qualifiers. Around that time he strengthened Premier League side West Ham United.

Well then West Ham United manager Harry Redknapp and Billy Bonds had questioned Alex Bunbury’s decision to strengthen the Canadian national team.

“Why go strengthen the national team (Canada)? You will not qualify for the World Cup (1994)”, recalled Alex Bunbury to the statements of his two coaches.

Then Alex Bunbury gave a confirmation to the two coaches. “It’s a country that has given me, my siblings and my parents so many opportunities. I couldn’t look away,” she said.
