Canada’s men’s soccer team will host Iceland and Tunisia during the March international window, with both games at Toronto’s BMO Field.

The 29th-ranked Canadian men will face Iceland on March 28 and Tunisia on March 31. Both visiting teams will get a second game during the window, playing Haiti in Toronto.

Canada, which will face No. 52 Uzbekistan on June 1 in Edmonton, has just one more opponent to announce. Jesse Marsch’s side will take on a yet-to-be-revealed European team in Montreal on June 5 or 6 in its final World Cup warmup.
