Toronto, opening weekend: Canada start at home against Bosnia

Canada open their home World Cup against Bosnia and Herzegovina at BMO Field on June 12, and Toronto has waited a long time for a night like this. Qatar and Switzerland are also in Group B, so there is no soft landing.

Marsch has the team pressing high and playing without fear, which suits a young squad and a loud home crowd. Switzerland are favourites to top the group, but second place is sitting right there.

Football has a moment in Canada right now. On this evidence the team means to make it last longer than three games.
