OLIVA, Spain -- The latest rebuilding project of the Canadian mens soccer team is taking place in a quiet corner of southeast Spain. Simon Mignolet Jersey . Its here, among the acres of orange groves and palm trees, that new head coach Benito Floro is beginning to reshape a program left in tatters following a disastrous exit from 2014 World Cup qualifying. From teenagers to veterans, the 61-year-old Spaniard has been putting a group of more than 30 players through the paces for the last week in this town an hour south of Valencia. Floro will get a glimpse of what he has to work with in his first game as national team coach on Sunday in a friendly against Mauritania. "The most important thing at this moment is to increase the confidence of the team," Floro said after the team trained on Saturday. "For us the game is training but its more serious because its important to win the game. At the moment its important to win the game but while were doing what weve been working on all week." Canada hasnt tasted victory in almost a year and has taken its lumps during that time as the program begins its long preparations for 2018 World Cup qualifying. Its been a busy camp with most days featuring two training sessions, video work, meetings and plenty of team bonding. Nametags might have been a good idea, with many players unfamiliar with each other prior to this camp. "Its been an eye-opener for me because a lot of the young boys that are here, Ive never seen them play," said 29-year-old forward Iain Hume, who picked up a minor injury and will return to his club team in England on Sunday. "To see some 17- and 18-year-old boys, its a different level than what weve had over the last ten years." The focus is on getting players on the same page so that whenever someone is brought into the squad, they will know the new coachs style. Canada is staying in a hotel that features a golf course, beach and vacation apartments but little else. "Its kind of like a Canadian national team pre-season," said 35-year-old midfielder Dwayne De Rosario, who is back with the squad after being omitted from the team during this past summers Gold Cup tournament. "(Floros) really getting his message across the way he wants us to play, the way he wants us to attack and defend, which is vital for the development of our national team moving forward. "The earlier we can all understand the way he wants us to play, the clearer the picture will be going forward." Floro, who filled the vacancy left by Stephen Hart as coach earlier this summer, will also get a second look at his players when Canada meets Mauritania for a second time on Tuesday. An impoverished West African country on the edge of the Sahara, Mauritania is currently ranked at 151 compared to Canadas 91. But Mauritania, a country where the current president came to power in a military coup in 2008, is steadily improving, having jumped up 21 places in last months FIFA rankings. "We are going to review two (Mauritania) matches to prepare the formation for our players," said Floro, whose third language is English, behind Spanish and French. "The other information around (Mauritania) is its a pretty good team with a lot of speed and good intentions." Clearly out to impress the new coach, there were a number of hard tackles thrown around in Saturdays training, with a few Canadian players needing some ice afterwards. The tempo was high, with most of the session taken up with scrimmage games that mixed in veterans and younger players. "One thing I know weve lacked in the past is meeting some of the young, up-and-coming talents," said De Rosario. "This is the first camp Ive been to where weve had a mixture of senior players and a mixture of young kids that is going to be the future national team players." Roberto Firmino Jersey . Osmond, of Marystown, N.L., fell in the middle of her routine and placed fifth in the ladies free skate at Iceberg Skating Palace (110.73 points), but that was all the Canadians needed after a strong performance by Kevin Reynolds in the mens free earlier Sunday.

Some good luck hasnt hurt, either. Matt Read scored a pair of goals to lead the Flyers to their fifth win in six games, 4-1 over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night. "Were having fun out there, doing simple things, not turning pucks over and just playing simple hockey," Read said. "Were a good team, and it just takes a matter of time and a couple of lucky bounces to get a positive atmosphere and get things clicking and going our way." Vincent Lecavalier also scored and Scott Hartnell added an empty-net goal for the Flyers, who set a season-high with 46 shots. Philadelphia began the season by losing seven of its first eight games. "Theyre playing good hockey," said Flyers coach Craig Berube, who replaced the fired Peter Laviolette after Philadelphia began the season with three losses. "There are things they can improve on. Youre always working to get better, and thats what were going to do." Reads goals came 1:40 apart late in the second period. Steve Downie and Sean Couturier assisted on both tallies for Philadelphia (9-10-2), which outshot Buffalo 46-30. Tyler Myers netted the lone goal for Buffalo, which is 1-3 under interim coach Ted Nolan and an NHL-worst 5-18-1 this season. "We have to play a certain way, and by doing stupid things like we have been, its going to be ugly games," Nolan said. "Ive seen enough in four games. We have to change some things, and players have to do it or its going to be a long year. "You have to do simple things. You cant have turnovers, cant have foolish penalties, cant be muscled off the puck." The game was the first between two Firrst Nations head coaches. Andrew Robertson Jersey. . Nolan is Ojibwe, and from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and Berube is part-Cree and from Calahoo, Alberta. Myers beat Ray Emery from close range in the first period to stake Buffalo to a 1-0 lead. But it was all Philadelphia from that point. "We have to grind it out," Nolan said. "It cant be a sometime thing, it has to be an all-the-time thing. We have to look ourselves in the mirror and get a certain mindset." Read tied it with a one-timer from the slot with 6:51 left in the second and gave Philadelphia a one-goal advantage by deking goalie Ryan Miller, while all alone in front of the crease, and putting a highlight-reel shot into the top of the net with 4:11 remaining in the period. "You cant get down on yourself or your teammates," Read said of the Flyers poor start. "We have a great team. Now its about having fun and keep playing hard." Berube said there cant be any letup from his players. "You have to stay on it all the time," he said. "You cant take a break. You have to be really smart out there. You have to keep working at it. If you want to be a really good team in this league, it takes a lot of work and a lot of preparation." Lecavalier one-timed a slap shot from the right circle midway through the third to make it 3-1. Ville Leino and Tyler Ennis had assists for Buffalo, which has lost three straight. NOTES: The Flyers have outscored opponents 24-8 over their last six games. ...
