Canada's World Cup knockout stage win vs. South Africa was equally forgettable as it was historic

Canada secured a historic FIFA World Cup knockout stage victory over South Africa, winning the match with a stoppage-time goal. The game was widely regarded as a poor spectacle, with both teams struggling to produce quality football throughout. The late strike spared fans from an additional 30 minutes of extra time between two sides that offered little in the way of cohesive or attractive play.
