Canadian women look far more composed in win over Brazil

Coach Bev Priestman knew a flat performance in a 2-0 loss to the United States in Canada’s opener at the SheBelieves Cup didn’t define her team, whose attention has been divided due to an ongoing labour dispute with Canada Soccer.“I’m really proud of the group, for what they’ve come through, to bounce back,” Priestman said after the match. “We said today we had to climb, we had to keep moving forward. And we did that.

Centre back Vanessa Gilles put Canada ahead in the 31st minute with a powerful header off a Jessie Fleming corner. Brazilian defender Lauren fell on the play. It was Gilles’ third goal in 24 appearances for Canada. Canadian goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan made two key saves with 10 minutes remaining to preserve the lead.

The Canadians, who are playing under protest due to the labour impasse with their governing body, once again took the field for the anthems wearing purple T-shirts saying “Enough is Enough.” The women also wore purple tape on their wrist, as did Priestman, to symbolize gender equality. The entire Canadian roster took part in the pre-game on-field photo rather than just the usual starting 11.

Beckie earned her 100th cap for Canada. The 28-year-old Portland Thorn is one of the Canadian women’s four team representatives – along with Sinclair, Quinn and Sophie Schmidt – and has been a leading voice in the labour dispute.
