Canada’s men’s U-15 national team answered its Group P defeat to Honduras with a 4–0 win over Turkmenistan at the Hovsan Competition Complex on 28 October.
Four scorers in a 12-minute opening burst
Canada Soccer’s official timeline shows Hayden Renardson opening the scoring in the fourth minute after an assist from Yele Dazirignon. Aryan Parmar doubled the lead at ten minutes, assisted by Quincy Green, and Rowen Egharevba made it 3–0 two minutes later from a Renardson assist.
Michael Pittarelli completed the scoring in the 39th minute, with Parmar credited for the assist. Four different Canadians therefore scored, while Renardson and Parmar each paired a goal with an assist. The official record lists Xavier McIlkenny-McDonald in goal and shows Shawn Couto, Dionte Marhong, Elliott Kim, Renardson, Dazirignon, Parmar and Seri Yannick Baye among the starters.
The timing supports one clear reading: Canada converted quickly, building a three-goal lead within 12 minutes, then added a fourth near the end of the 40-minute match. The page does not provide shots, possession, saves or a narrative of chance creation, so it cannot support broader claims about control, pressure or individual performances beyond the recorded goals, assists and lineup.
A clean-sheet response
The result was Canada’s third win and second clean sheet of the event. It followed qualification-stage victories over Singapore and Samoa, a draw with Guatemala, and defeats to Guinea-Bissau and Honduras. Through six matches, Canada’s record moved to three wins, one draw and two losses, with 33 goals scored and seven conceded.
The tournament’s unusual format matters. FIFA’s inaugural U-15 event uses eight-a-side matches of two 20-minute halves and sends every team from the opening groups into one of six performance tiers. Canada Soccer identifies Turkmenistan as a tournament-stage opponent but does not name Canada’s tier or state a placement consequence, so none should be inferred.
Canada’s next confirmed assignment was Andorra later on 28 October at the same complex. That tight turnaround made the Turkmenistan result the first half of a two-match day rather than a standalone final. The verified lesson is modest but positive: four scorers, a clean sheet and an immediate winning response after the Honduras loss.
