dave199 Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I hope Canada will play in group D, since I will see some games in Montreal... Canada is in Group A since they are the host country. I also know they are in Group A because they are playing their Opening Game on July 1st (Canada's Day) in Toronto. If you take a look at the schedule Guardian posted, Toronto is the only city outside of Edmonton to host a Group A match. So unfortunately for Montreal, you will not see Canada play during the Group Stage of the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave199 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 What a coincidence Portugal lands into Group C with 2 of their 3 games are being played in Toronto where the Portuguese community here is massive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcocrowgdl Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Mexico can easily qualify at least as a best 3rd; they have high possibilities of making it to the final four, since this is the same squad that won U-17 Championship two years ago in Peru.
