A late winner by Canada in their World Cup round of 32 game against the Bafana Bafana of South Africa on Sunday night took the North Americans to the last 16.
After over an hour and 30 minutes of back and forth waste of chances by both sides, the goal finally came in the 92nd minute through a fine shot from Stephen Eustaquio.
The best chance for Canada earlier in the game was when Moise Bombito’s header was cleared off the line by South Africa’s Aubrey Modiba.
