Canada sat out the World Cup with three straight losses against Belgium, Croatia and Morocco in their return to the tournament, their first time in the competition since 1986.

Sports analyst Sid Seixeiro has thrown an iPad at the Breakfast Television studios in Canada in response to criticism of Canadian star Alphonso Davies.

Canada lost all three World Cup matches and was knocked out of the tournament in the group stage.

Davies became the first man to score in the tournament in Canadian soccer history.

‘Oddly enough, [Alphonso Davies] has received criticism… and not just from any section of the media, but from the Canadian media,’ Seixeiro said. ‘Canada Soccer hasn’t earned the right to criticize a kid like this, we don’t have the media smart enough to criticize a kid like this, because most of the media there watch soccer once every two to four years and then they want a free trip to write about it.

“Canada Soccer can hardly run a fast food place, let alone a soccer federation…they are lucky that Alphonso Davies, one of the best players in the world in his position, represents Canada.”

Davies had been criticized for not speaking to any media after each of Canada’s games, but Seixeiro did not see this as a problem, instead turning to Canada’s own soccer media.

“I don’t care if he talks to the media, that they wanted a free trip, after the game, I don’t care if he has an earring, he’s injured there, he’s injured there, he scored the first.” [World Cup] goal in the history of his country in the men’s side on Sunday, we are lucky to have this guy.

‘Any member of the media who thinks differently is an absolute idiot, and cover anything else, because this is way over their head.

‘This kid is the best thing that’s ever happened to Canadian football, and this crap is setting the sport back years, because we don’t know what we have in this country when we have it.

“We are used to criticizing because that is what gives you the clicks, whether you are Bruce Arthur or this CBC clown who I pay his salary to. I don’t care who he is, we have to respect this guy, I don’t want to hear a single criticism.

“Never, ever rip this boy apart again, he’s disgusting, he’s low class and we need to be better as a country.”

Davies, for his part, issued a statement shortly after Canada lost the last match against Morocco saying the future of the team is positive.

He said on social media: ‘Very proud of this team for everything we have achieved together.

Davies’ goal was one of two scored by Canada at the World Cup, but the other was an own goal.

In a Tweet, he talked about how proud he was of Canada making his first appearance in 36 years.

“We didn’t get the results we wanted in the World Cup, but the future of football in this country is bright.

“Thank you to all the travel support for coming all the way to Qatar to support us every step of the way.”

Canada is co-hosting the 2026 World Cup along with the United States and Mexico, so it automatically qualifies.
