FIFA Penalizes Canadian Women’s Soccer with 6-Point Deduction, Coach Banned for a Year

FIFA has delivered a major blow to the Canadian women's soccer team, slashing six points from their tally in the Olympic women's soccer tournament. 🏅

Adding to the penalty, head coach Bev Priestman has been banned from coaching for a year following a drone spying scandal that has cast a shadow over Canada's bid for another gold medal. 🛑

The global governing body announced these sanctions on Saturday, citing the misconduct as a significant violation that undermines fair play and competition in the tournament.

This scandal not only affects the team's current standing but also has potential long-term implications for their reputation and future performances on the international stage.
