Jonathan David’s goal for Canada 2-0 vs. El Salvador in Qualifiers | VIDEO

The Canadian team has surprised throughout the Qatar 2022 Concacaf Qualifiers and is getting closer to securing its ticket to the World Cup. This Wednesday, the team won against El Salvador and the last goal came shortly after the end, after a counterattack led by Jonathan David.

The American referee Armando Villarreal had added four minutes to the match that was played at the Cuscatlán Stadium. Due to the minimal difference, the Salvadoran team advanced their lines to get closer to the tie and Enrico Hernández tried to generate a dangerous play with a side kick.

However, the young attacker did not send the ball directly into the area, but rather tried to enable the experienced Marvin Monterrosa, who was a few meters behind, to be in charge of raising a cross.

The idea seemed good, considering almost the entire Canadian squad was in his area, but the full-back’s execution was very weak and Jonathan David had enough speed to intercept the pass. Immediately, the forward started the counterattack and headed towards the goal defended by Kevin Carabantes.

Despite the pressure, and Walmer Martínez’s desperate attempt to knock him down, the Canadian team’s striker finished with a fantastic ‘lob’ from the crescent of the area. The ball gave a few small bounces before entering the goal and the joy was unleashed in the ‘Reds’.

The partial victory keeps the Canadian representative in first place in the standings of the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers in Concacaf, although now with a total of 25 points, and only needs one more victory in the next three dates (or other results). of his rivals). For its part, El Salvador is in the sixth box and could aspire to the playoff, in case Panama does not defeat Mexico.
