Canada has qualified for next summer’s FIFA Women’s World Cup France 2019 after defeating Panama 7-0 in the tournament Semi-Final in Frisco, Texas.
“I’m very happy for this team. For us, qualifying that’s the only thing we talked about getting here, that was for us to qualify,” said Canadian Women’s National Team Head Coach Kenneth Heiner-Moller. “Right now, everyone needs to decompress a little bit. We’ve qualified so now we need to set a new goal.”
Canada will now move on to the Final against the winner of tonight’s second Semi-Final match between hosts USA and Jamaica.
