00:00And we see this often in football and in base,

00:03you see this in other sports often where teams

00:06that are like playing for something down the stretch,

00:09they carry that sort of momentum.

00:11So like team Canada was rattled.

00:13They needed to dig down deep.

00:15Like they were in must win mode.

00:17And yesterday, like they talked about

00:19like how the team functions, it was very quiet.

00:22And they said, yeah, it felt like sort of

00:23like a game seven elimination game.

00:26It was very quiet, but they had a quiet confidence.

00:28And I think that intensity sort of carries over

00:30through the week right now.

00:32And then meanwhile, you got the USA

00:33who were in a tough spot either way tonight.

00:36Like if I was the US, I personally,

00:39I would have went pedal to the metal tonight.

00:41I understand, all right, guys were a little beat up.

00:44Like Massey's not playing, Matthew Goodchuck not playing.

00:47They didn't play a hell of a buck,

00:49but you're playing a dangerous game

00:51with trying to flick the switch on and off and on again.

00:54Right, I almost just would have said if I was the US,

00:57you know what, the way things are going right now for us,

01:00let's just keep it rolling tonight.

01:02And let's, you know what I mean?

01:03I would salad, let's go undefeated in this tournament.

01:06And like I would say, you know, that's just me though.

01:09They handle it a different way.

01:10We'll see whether it works out or not.
