Canadian Soccer women made history today, when they won a bronze medal by defeating France with a last minute goal.
After
an emotional semi-final match agains the US on Monday, there were some
questions if the Canadian team would be able to move beyond that game
and be a challenger to France. During last year's Worl Cup the French
side send Canada packing during the group stage by handing them a 4-0 defeat.
A
relatively eventless first half, saw many failed passes and a cautious
approach by both teams. The game certainly did not have the atmosphere
of the semi-final match against the American neighbour. Neither team had
many moves toward the goal and the half ended scoreless. Canada had an
excellent chance in the 15th minute on a pass from Rhian Wilkinson to Christine Sinclair, which went over the net. Full story @allvoices
