No big deal failing to beat Super Falcons – Canada boss, Priestman

Canada head Coach, Brev Priestman has said there was no big deal in her side’s failure to beat the Super Falcons of Nigeria.

The Olympic champions were held to a 0-0 draw by Randy Waldrum’s side in their opening 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup fixture at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium on Friday.

Veteran forward, Christine Sinclair missed a penalty early in the second half.

The North Americans were stretched by the Super Falcons who came close to scoring a couple of times in the game.

Priestman, who was a former England assistant coach, was unperturbed with the outcome of the game.

[It’s] tournament football, we opened the Olympic Games with a draw, we’re not getting too hung up on that [match and we] very quickly move on to game two,” the English woman said after the game.

Canada will take on debutants, Republic of Ireland in their next game on Thursday, July 31.
