Match Report

Canada Soccer’s Women’s National Team played to a 1:1 draw with England at the Arnold Clark Cup in the first match of 2022.

Canada’s best chance of the first half came in the 12’. A deep corner found Kadeisha Buchanan unmarked for a free header, which bounced around in the six-yard box before Deanne Rose fired a shot wide.

In the 15’, England’s Leah Williamson got a clear shot away from outside of the Canadian penalty area which swerved inches wide of the post.

It was England who struck first in the match to take a 1:0 lead. A cross from a well-worked short corner came into the box and Canada goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan came out but wasn’t able to get a strong punch away amongst a cluster of players. The half clearance fell to Millie Bright who struck the ball cleanly to score (22’).

In the 34’ Buchanan was involved defensively, getting in two crucial shot blocks to prevent England from doubling the lead.

In the 36’, a burst of pace and quick turn by Jayde Riviere down the right wing allowed her to create the space to play in a high cross into a dangerous area. The ball was won by an England defender and the goalkeeper was then able to claim it in the area.

Canada came out with more attacking force in the second half. In the 54’, Rose slid in a perfectly-weighted pass to Jessie Fleming, but Fleming was unable to pick out the square pass to Janine Beckie.

Minutes later, Beckie tied up the score with a brilliant strike, taking a couple of quick touches outside of the penalty area before finding the top corner with her shot (55’). The goal developed after Ashley Lawrence won the ball in the Canadian half and stormed forward on the attack before finding Jordyn Huitema who then quickly made the pass to Beckie.

In the 58’, England’s Lauren Hemp received a great pass that found her running in behind the Canadian defence, but Sheridan made a great save to push the shot away from the net and giving Vanessa Gilles time to recover and clear the ball.

The game continued to get stretched with lots of quick breaks in both directions. In the 62’, Fleming played a ball over the top to Rose to run onto. Rose was able to get to the end line but when she tried to pick out Nichelle Prince, her pass was blocked by a defender.

In the 79’ Fleming was again able to find the space to play in a through-pass, this time towards Prince who got to the ball ahead of the England defenders and found the room to get a shot away but it went right into the arms of the keeper.

Canada’s Starting XI in their first match of 2022 saw Kailen Sheridan get the nod in goal. Kadeisha Buchanan, Jayde Riviere, Vanessa Gilles, and Ashley Lawrence made up the back line. Julia Grosso, Desiree Scott, and Jessie Fleming started in the midfield, with Fleming wearing the captain’s armband. Jordyn Huitema, Janine Beckie, and Deanne Rose rounded out the side up front.

Coach Bev Priestman brought on Quinn and Nichelle Prince in the 59’ in place of Grosso and Huitema. Cloe Lacasse replaced Riviere (66’), and Victoria Pickett came on for Rose (80’).
