Matthew was in his reserved box looking completely to the field, the can see on the other box right across him France and a Lady. Under any other circumstances he would assume that the lady was a 'companion' of his father, but right now he knew better.
She was Guadeloupe
She was one of the reasons France left him
Canada knew that France really didn't have any voice in the matter, and that he actually suffered when he was forced to give New France to England…
But Matthew was a young adult with a bit of resentment to it
Deeply inside it hurt that France superior's choose a tiny, tiny set of islands instead of what was Canada, A big chunk of the continent.
If he won this game not only he could shut up Alfred's bragging of their 2-0 game, but also he could show that lady that he was far more powerful then him.
Ok, Mattie got to admit that he was thinking rather psychotically, but hey! This is soccer, the people do not think straight.*

With a whistle the game was over and Matthew could not be more proud
1-0, could it be more iconic? Also he has three more points, which made hi regain the hope of advancing to the next phase
Yeah probably not as good as hockey, but good enough to satisfy his little need have revenge

Ok, explanation time
While watching the scores of the Gold Cup 2011 I noticed sadly that US won against Canada 2-0 but then I saw that Canada won over Guadeloupe I say "Yeah! Canada won!" but then I Google Guadeloupe and fount that that set of islands was one of the territories France preferred to keep after the treaty of Paris over Canada…so I told myself "Maybe Mattie felt like revenge after winning" and Ta Da! This fic was born.
This however doesn't reflect the thoughts of Canadians; it is a fanfic after all…
(*) Well this is my opinion, I'm Mexican and in here we become over dramatic over the scores of the Soccer, especially if the National League is playing…
