Canada Soccer’s Women’s National Team came back from a 2-0 deficit in the first half to defeat Norway 3-2 in its final match of 2017. In a dazzling display, Canada scored three goals in under 15 minutes to turn the match on its head in the early minutes of the second half, and posted its first ever win against Norway.
Whitecaps FC Girls Elite REX striker Jordyn Huitema made her seventh senior national team appearance, coming on as a substitute in the 84th minute.
Norway opened strong against Canada, scoring in the 18th minute off a corner (Ina Gausdal), and again in the 37th minute with a strong right-footed strike from just inside the box (Caroline Graham Hansen).
