‘We were better than them’: Marsch bullish despite Canada’s World Cup exit to Morocco

• Canada coach says his side ‘totally controlled the match’

• Ouahbi: ‘It takes some nerve to say when you lose 3-0’

Jesse Marsch spoke of his pride in his Canada side after their last-16 exit to Morocco, claiming they were the better team and challenging his players to keep producing the levels they have reached in this tournament.

“We totally controlled the match,” he said.

“We were the ones more likely to win the game, but goals change games so they could sit back.

But overall in the match we were better than them.

Before we came here if you’d said we’d be last 16 we’d have been satisfied.

And if you’d said we were going to play like that … you’d think we were going to win the match.”
