From the Ice to the Florida Heat, Canadian Defender Kerfalla Toure Is Making His Mark
- On November 18, 2025, Canada closed its 2025 schedule with a 2-0 win over Venezuela at Chase Stadium as Ismaël Kone scored and was later sent off, while Venezuela finished with 10 men after David Martinez received a straight red.
- Venezuela failed to qualify for next year’s World Cup, finishing eighth at 4-8-6, which cost Fernando Batista his job after 20 months, while Canada aimed to build momentum, Marsch said.
- Despite controlling 62 per cent possession, Venezuela national team had fewer shots in the first half as Canada held a 5-2 edge, while referee Rubiel Vazquez issued seven yellow cards, five to Canada.
- The result gives Canada momentum, marking a fifth shutout in six games as the Canada men's national soccer team has outscored opponents 6-1, and Jesse Marsch said the squad has made a lot of progress.
- Next up is the Dec. 5 World Cup draw in Washington, D.C., with just two FIFA windows — March 23-31 and June 1-9 — before the June 11 World Cup kickoff.
