Canadian women’s national team soccer coach Bev Priestman wasn’t impressed with the penalty call that led to her team’s loss to the United States in the final of the CONCACAF W Championship on Monday night in Mexico.
“I would have liked to have seen it checked at least. I think it was soft,” Priestman told Canada Soccer after the 1-0 loss. “But a penalty is a penalty. Decisions are made in games and you’ve get to get on with it. We responded well, I think that’s the most important thing.”The American got the golden opportunity after Rose Lavelle went down after contact from substitute Allysha Chapman, prompting Mexican referee Katia Garcia to point to the penalty spot.
