HARRISON, New Jersey – The Canadian men’s national team looked like they belonged.

Against Colombia, the No. 13-ranked team in the world, Les Rouges played with confidence, control and even a little swagger. In the end, Tuesday's scoreless draw was a statement for Jesse Marsch's side - especially after their 1–0 loss to Australia on Friday.

“We are looking more like an experienced team, the leaders are looking more and more like leaders, and the young players are developing where they look more like the regular players,” Marsch told reporters after the match.

“I believe that the way we play, in the way that we commit to games, is going to ultimately benefit us more down the road.”
