Jacob Shaffelburg made a name for himself after a stellar Copa América campaign for Canada, and he’s back scoring on the international stage.
The Canucks made the trip to face rivals USA on Saturday, and sustained pressure helped break the deadlock after registering four shots to zero.
Jonathan David received the ball in the box after a turnover and gifted the ball wide to Shaffelburg.
Canada’s ‘Maritime Messi’ then stayed composed and struck with his left foot into the far right corner beyond goalkeeper Patrick Schulte.
It is now a consecutive goal against the USA for Shaffelburg, who scored the last time these two met in the Gold Cup in 2023.
Haunted.
