Canada secured a 1–0 victory over Guatemala in an International Friendly on 18 January, dominating proceedings through superior shot volume and accuracy. The hosts registered 14 shots with seven finding the target, establishing clear control throughout the encounter, whilst Guatemala managed only six attempts, three of which were on target. Canada's 4–4–2 formation proved effective against Guatemala's 4–3–3 setup, allowing them to create and convert opportunities efficiently. Guatemala's goalkeeper produced a flawless display with a 100 per cent save percentage, though the team's defensive resilience ultimately proved insufficient to prevent the opening goal. The absence of named goalscorers in the data reflects the friendly's secondary importance, yet Canada's clinical finishing—converting one of their limited high-quality chances—highlights their attacking efficiency. This result demonstrates Canada's attacking prowess ahead of competitive fixtures.
