Still, in some ways, camaraderie has quickly allowed new faces to shine and made Canada look like Copa veterans, drawing two red cards while not losing any players to suspension.
“For a young team in this tournament against some experienced, savvy, good opponents, we’ve looked like an experienced team,” Marsch added. “We’ve played with intelligence, and that, I think, is a big step for us.”
Now, the tests become more intense, especially as the group moves ahead without former New England Revolution winger Tajon Buchanan, who sustained a fractured tibia in training and underwent surgery in Dallas.
“I recognize that it’s a big accomplishment and an accomplishment that wasn’t going to be easy. I hope that people are inspired by the team back home,” Marsch said. “We are not satisfied. The group is not satisfied. They want to keep going.”
