Article Excerpt
BC Place hosted seven World Cup matches and its pitch was the setting for some of the most defining moments of the tournament in Canada. It was the stage for the first World Cup win by Canada’s men’s national team, as well as where a hard tackle broke Ismaël Koné's leg.

Video by Andrea Woo and Alex Migdal.
