Here's the offer: We drop all the tariffs and trade war talk and get both our economies humming. You get your Mighty Magic Marker fired up and rename whatever you want. Deal?

Switzerland wins in pens! That one big section of red goes wild. The rest of the yellow stadium is sad
No goals!
I’m sitting in the midst of five Swiss reporters, which has added some fun layers to this 120-minute goalless draw
On to pens!
Don’t let the dancing Colombians fool you — it’s super tight and tense in here as they play 15 final minutes. A spot in the World Cup quarterfinals is one kick away
The only goalless regulation time of the round of 16 here at BC Place. Colombia and Switzerland get ready for 30 minutes more
Last World Cup game at BC Place, first time with a halftime act. Ladies and gentlemen, Tom Cochrane!
(The international media members around me all briefly looked up from their laptops 🤘)
Somehow Colombia fans managed to buy every ticket in BC Place except for the one section reserved for Switzerland. VERY loud in here, all for the lads in yellow
The Swiss team whoops it up with their supporters after beating Algeria 2-0 in Vancouver’s BC Place to advance to the round of 16. They’ll play here again Tuesday
Swiss fans going nuts here in BC Place as their team takes a 2-0 lead early in the second. Both teams have generated decent chances. The Swiss have taken theirs with class. Algeria, not yet….
Wild start here in BC Place. Algeria plays beautiful soccer for 10 minutes, makes a bad turnover and seconds later Switzerland are slamming it into the net too. That goal was all Manzambi — he torched Canada too
EMBOLOOOOOO!
What a run from Manzambi to put the ball in and Switzerland takes the lead in Vancouver! 🇨🇭 #FIFAWorldCup
No Stephen Eustáquio in the starting lineup. Muscle tightness, apparently. He's on the field warming up though. Looks spry enough, in juggle circle at least.
Huge opportunities for Saliba and Choinière to show their quality as starters in the centre of the pitch
Today’s starters, presented by @GE_Appliances
🍁 Luc and DC at the back
🍁 Choinière and Saliba anchor the midfield
🍁 JD has the armband
LET’S GO #CANMNT
