Canada will play South Africa in the first-ever knockout match at a men’s World Cup for both nations.
The Canadians lost 2-1 to Switzerland in their group finale Wednesday and had to settle for second place in Group B.
It was widely expected they’d take on South Korea in the round of 32 as a result, but South Africa pulled off a 1-0 upset win over the Koreans later Wednesday night to finish second in Group A.
