Canada edges out Suriname in a tense CONCACAF Nations League quarter-final clash. The match, played at the Dr. Ir. Franklin Essed Stadion in Paramaribo on November 15th, 2024, was characterized by its physicality and disciplinary issues. Oshane Nation (Jamaica) officiated the game. While Canada dominated possession with 68%, the game was decided in the closing stages. Suriname put up a strong defensive performance, but their lack of attacking threat proved costly. The only goal of the match came in the 82nd minute through Junior Hoilett, assisted by Jonathan David. The game saw several yellow cards shown: S. Pinas and M. Abena (Suriname), A. Johnston and J. Waterman (Canada), and I. Pherai, J. Osorio and M. Choiniere (Canada). Despite Canada’s superiority in possession and shots (4 shots, 1 on target), Suriname held on resolutely until the end. Canada’s 1-0 victory sends them through to the next round.
