Is Huitema the most overrated player in Canadian soccer history?

Another beauty by Canada to take a 2-1 lead - Fantastic finish after a great through ball.

Canada wins 2-1 - Will New Zealand continue to lobby for those three points to be stripped?!?

The Kiwi goal was scored on a set piece so the drone spying didnt seem to have worked for Canada lol

Watching the match and Canada dominated despite going down 1-nil...Really makes we wonder why going to the trouble of flying a drone over the Kiwis practice (twice) was even brought up in the first place

Anyone know why the Zambian women's soccer team came out to start the game making a "rubbing their head" motion?

Opening goal for Canada today - We've come quite a way from hit and hope soccer lol

Figured I might as well post the GWG as well - Superb pass from Fleming and what a finish by Viens.

They play behind closed doors today? Attendance looks sparse to non-existent.

No, it was open, that's pretty typical attendance for women's soccer in Europe (friends and family)

/Canada plats France next, I expect a pretty good crowd for that match.

I didnt watch ... checked the live updates and saw this on sportsnet and thought at the time ...ahhh yes yes ... i am sure you can hear the players shouting because the game is tense

Hey TSN, snitches get stitches

I wouldn't be surprised if Bev Priestman (Canadian women's soccer team coach) is fired before the game against New Zealand.

So close

I'm not sure what might happen to the Canadian women's soccer team at these Olympics, but it seems pretty clear that there is a pretty long history of spying on other teams (back to the Herdman coaching days) and an atmosphere of coercing coaches / consultants to either go along with the spying or find another job.
