Canada to play Estonia in soccer friendly in March in Tallinn

Archived Articles | 10 Jan 2008 | EWR

Canadian Press has reported that Canada will play Estonia in a soccer friendly on March 26 in Tallinn, according to FIFA.

The game will give the Canadian side a chance to play together before the squad takes on St. Vincent and the Grenadines in a home-and-away World Cup qualifier in June. Canada is currently ranked 55th in the world, compared to No. 120 for Estonia. The two met in March 2003 in Tallinn, with Estonia winning 2-1.

Most recently, Estonia tied Uzbekistan 0-0, beat Andorra 2-0 and lost 2-0 to Saudi Arabia. Estonia is due to play a friendly in Poland in February before hosting the Canadians.

March 26 is an international date on the FIFA calendar, meaning most top leagues will shut down to allow players to join their national teams for international duty.
