Montreal suffered another crushing defeat in the final against Tampa with a score of 3:6. Once again the team showed a terrible game in defense and it is also worth noting another failed match of goalkeeper Price, who reflected only 82% of the shots. This time, the Canadiens managed to score more than one goal at least. Dominique Ducharme’s wards clearly did not expect such a confident game of the opponent and the club simply did not have enough strength after the difficult series with Toronto and Vegas. Now the Canadians are on the verge of being knocked out of the playoffs, giving up the cup to Tampa.
The Peru national team unsuccessfully played the first qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup and is still in last place in the group.

Ricardo Gareca’s wards defeated Colombia (2:1) and drew with Ecuador (2:2), after which they snatched victory from Venezuela (1:0) in the decisive duel. In the quarterfinals the Incas played a scoring thriller with the Paraguay national team and only in a penalty shootout they got a ticket to the semifinals (4:3).
