“Those games are still a little ways away, right? Hopefully we’re all still friends as they approach. But no, it’ll be interesting. I think Canada’s national team is in a very good place right now and while there’s certainly some work to do there, it’ll be a good test I think for both sides.” “It should be fun. While there is a bit of rivalry within the locker room there at times, it’s all professional and it’s all switched back over to TFC pride and love at the right time,” Moor added. “It should make for a fun couple of weeks as it does approach.”
