Canada falls to France in World Cup tune-up
The injury-depleted Canadian women fell short in an attempted comeback Tuesday, beaten 2-1 by France in a women’s soccer friendly for their fourth loss in their last five outings.
The Canadians rallied after the gifted goal, with substitute Cloe Lacasse coming close with a header in the 74th minute. Olympic champion Canada has been drawn in Group B at the World Cup with No. 10 Australia, No. 22 Ireland and No. 42 Nigeria. The injuries made for an inexperienced bench with the 12 substitutes totalling 127 caps, with Jayde Riviere and Gabby Carle accounting for 72 of those.
Delphine Cascarino, whose twin sister Estelle was also in the French starting lineup, hammered a shot directly at Sheridan in the 35th minute.
