Canada's men's soccer team has beaten the U.S. for the first time in 34 years, with second-half goals from Alphonso Davis and Lucas Cavallini in a 2-0 win Tuesday night in the CONCACAF Nations League.

"This is an amazing feeling and I feel like this is a new Canada. And looking forward to the future," said 19-year-old Jonathan David, who joined forces with the 18-year-old Davies to terrorize U.S defenders. Hard-charging Canada was a bundle of energy all night, harrying the Americans when they had the ball and using the pace and guile of Davies and David to cause havoc up front.

Samuel Piette sucked up balls in the midfield all night long for Canada with captain Scott Arfield and Jonathan Osorio playing provider on the goals. The elegant teenager showed why Bayern Munich wanted him so badly, slashing past defenders and generally causing havoc. With such expectations comes pressure. Herdman is doing his best to ease the load off Davies' shoulders.

The two teams will face off again Nov. 15 in Orlando. The U.S. will play Cuba four days later in the Cayman Islands capital of George Town.
