Shaffelburg Brace Secures Canada Win Over Peru - Northern Tribune

A first-half brace from Jacob Shaffelburg ensured Canada kept a 100% win rate through its first two matches of the international break. Head coach Jesse Marsch made five changes from the side which beat nine-man Chile last weekend, handing Owen Goodman his senior international debut between the sticks while youngster Richard Chukwu earned his first start at left-back. Stephen Eustaquio and Liam Millar started after coming on as substitutes against Chile, while Daniel Jebbison replaced Cyle Larin up top after the striker recently tweaked his back.
