Canada's men's national soccer team made history by advancing to the Round of 16 at the FIFA World Cup after a 1-0 victory over South Africa. CTV's Josh Marano visits Lowertown Brewery where soccer fan Geoff Ruggero says he is beyond excited after witnessing the historic knockout stage win. Lowertown Brewery owner Alex Sirois added extra televisions and a new projector to his patio for the massive crowd, who cheered as captain Alphonso Davies returned from injury in the second half. Stephen Estaquio scored the winning goal in the 92nd minute to secure the match, and Canada will now wait to play either the Netherlands or Morocco on Saturday.
