Canada earn HISTORIC 1st point in 2026 World Cup opener
For the first time ever, the CanMNT have picked up a World Cup point, drawing Bosnia & Herzegovina 1-1 in their 2026 tournament opener at Toronto Stadium. Bosnia were dangerous on set-pieces, and punished Canada early. But Jesse Marsch's CanMNT responded well, eventually finding an equalizer through Cyle Larin, who picked a perfect time to bust a near two-year goal drought with Canada. Ben, Brendan and Alex dive into all of the key storylines from the match, as they break down how Marsch changed the game with aggressive substitutions, Canada’s excellence from open play, what went wrong on the set pieces, and what this point means for Canada heading west to Vancouver.

Gerry Dobson — Canada’s Broadcaster Through The Dark Days Doesn’t Have Regrets
Gerry Dobson saw the worst moments for Canada's men's national team — and just as it started to get good, he retired. 10 years after he signed off the airwaves that brought him across CONCACAF with Canada's dismal men's program at the time, he couldn't be happier to see where the team has gotten, even if there's a small part of him that wishes he could have been a part of it. In a one-on-one with Ben Steiner, he dives into some of the stories from the dark days and his experiences calling Canadian games, Canadian soccer and Canada's first live exposure to the Premier League over the course of three decades.

Liam Millar is FINALLY a Premier League player!
It was a successful end to the 2025-2026 season for several CanMNT players, and none more than Liam Millar, who helped Hull City return to the Premier League after a dramatic promotion final win vs. Middlesbrough. After a long journey to this stage, it’s a huge moment for Millar, who will look to carry that good feeling into what he hopes is a good World Cup for Canada, before hopefully lacing up his boots in the EPL this fall. Alex, Ben and Brendan dive into all other happenings related to Canadians playing abroad, including the upcoming Concacaf Champions Cup final, which will feature CanMNT winger Marcelo Flores, who is hoping to help Tigres UNAL to a big win vs. Toluca, before closing out the show with some talk about the Canadian MLS teams.

CanMNT’s World Cup journey BEGINS in Charlotte!
It’s all starting to become real for the CanMNT, who have officially kicked off their World Cup preparation in Charlotte, North Carolina, where they’ve gathered for their pre-tournament training camp. Unfortunately, due to injuries and other club commitments, not everyone has made it to Charlotte, including Canadian captain Alphonso Davies, but otherwise, most of the 32 players who were called up to this camp are there. Now, the challenge for head coach Jesse Marsch is to whittle that group of 32 down to 26 players, which will be easier said than done. Speaking of Marsch, though, he’s already had a busy week, as he announced that he’ll stay on as CanMNT head coach through the 2030 World Cup, in what is a big coup for the Canadian program. Alex, Ben and Brendan dive into everything you need to know about that squad, as well as about Marsch’s contract extension, before finishing with a chat about the favourites to win this World Cup, in this episode of the Northern Futbol Podcast.

World Cup break can’t come soon enough for Canadian MLS teams + Canadians Abroad
Before the club game pauses with the World Cup starting in less than a month, certain leagues are heating up over the next few weeks, as most European circuits wind down, while leagues like Major League Soccer are about to hit their halfway point. Speaking of MLS, however, this break could come at a great time for Canada’s MLS sides, the Vancouver Whitecaps, Toronto FC and CF Montréal, who are dealing with injuries, dipping form and more. Can the Whitecaps enter the break still in first place in MLS? Will Toronto FC be able to stop a lengthy winless run? Can CF Montréal leap their Canadian Classique rivals after recovering from a slow start? They’ll all look to make that happen this weekend. Meanwhile, Canadians continue to shine across the globe - Alex and Ben dive into those CanMNT and CanWNT players who are shining brightest at the moment in ‘Canadians Abroad’. Hosted on Acast.
