Match Review ESP - CAN 2-3
Match 3: Spain v Canada 2-3 (0-1)
Canada upset Spain in the opening match of pool B by winning 3-2. Gordon Johnston, James Kirkpatrick and Devohn Noronha Teixiera were the goal-scoring heroes in this key encounter towards the quarter-final qualification.
The Canadians made the better start to the contest, with Gordon Johnston netting with a drag-flick after 6 minutes. James Kirkpatrick (39’) doubled Canada’s lead in the third quarter before Spain struck back with a beautiful penalty corner goal from Mario Fernandez (43’).
However, it took Canada just one minute to get the scoreboard ticking again. Devohn Noronha Teixiera (44’) scored after a terrific solo run to extend the lead to 3-1. The end was hectic as Albert Beltran (52’) pulled one back for Spain after a video referral. The Red Sticks threw everything into the match in search of an equaliser in the last minutes but the Maple Leafs managed to secure the victory.
