The CanMNT took a step towards the 2026 World Cup with a productive October window, one where they lost 1-0 to Australia before drawing 0-0 with Colombia. While their offence struggled, their defence was a big strength, and some individuals put in key performances to improve their World Cup stock, giving plenty for Canada to be pleased with despite the results.
