MONTREAL: Canada will look to celebrate their World Cup run when they return home for two friendlies against Chile and Peru later this year, in what head coach Jesse Marsch hopes will be a “hero’s welcome.” Canada will host Chile in Toronto on September 26 before traveling to Montreal to face Peru on October 3, the countries’ soccer federations announced on Wednesday. The friendlies mark Canada’s homecoming after a historic showing at the World Cup which saw them win their first game at the men’s tournament, a 6-0 romp against Qatar, and advance to the knockout stage for the first time. “The momentum we’ve created for this sport in the country over the past few months has been incredible,” Marsch said in a statement. “We couldn’t have done it without our fans, and these matches are a chance to say thank you and continue to build on what we achieved at the World Cup.
It took little time for Luc de Fougerolles to turn the sting of defeat into motivation for the future.

When the final whistle went, two-goal hero Azzedine Ounahi said he “felt like crying” after helping to give his country the celebrations its people were expecting.
Canada coach Jesse Marsch insisted that his side were «the better team» in their 3-0 World Cup defeat to Morocco on Saturday, saying «I'd rather be us than them.»
HOUSTON, July 4 : Canada's dream World Cup run ended on Saturday when they crashed out with a 3-0 loss to Morocco in the last 16, but coach Jesse Marsch said he could not have been prouder of his players after a performance he believed deserved a different outcome.
