    Canada is set to play Libya on Feb. 12th at a site to be determined. They will also play on March 23rd against Estonia.

    The CSA is also planning a match in Edmonton over the Victoria Day weekend (late May) against a team from the World Cup.

    Where's the rest of CONCACAF?

    I read in the Turkish press that the Turkey-Mexico friendly will be played in L.A. (Same with the Honduras game).

    I hope Telemundo or Galavision shows the Mexico game.

    Does Mexico ever play friendlies in Mexico?

    If that Canada-Estonia game is in Estonia, I highly recommend that trip if one has the time and money. And the money will go a lot further once you're there. Tallinn's a great place for anyone interested in history, architecture, econ. development, beautiful wom...er and soccer, I suppose.

    I wanted to go to Estonia a few months ago, but I didn't have the proper visa to go through Poland. I heard it is a beautiful country.

    Canada is very close to getting a friendly vs Germany in Germany next spring. Basically it is already agreed upon, but Germany needs to find a proper time and place. Hopefully this can be worked out! Canada also wants to play two more friendlies on top of the Libya, Estonia, and the possible German match.

    I made a mistake, the game might not be in Germany.

    They played Colombia in Azteca last year before the world cup and their friendly against Portugal is more than likely going to be in Mexico City.
