MONTREAL — Soccer fans in Montreal were left heartbroken after the Canadian women's soccer team lost to Germany in the quarterfinal of the Paris Olympics on Saturday. But fans said they still have plenty of reasons to cheer.
But he couldn't hide his disappointment at the result. “It’s an upset,” he said. “I thought they would win." Tami Piovesan, originally from Mildmay, Ont., now calls Montreal home. She said she has been following women's soccer since she was 10 years old. She said that during the 2021 Tokyo Games, watching Kadeisha Buchanan, a titan in team Canada's backline, help the women’s team conquer gold was an inspiration.
But this year's Games for the women's team has not been without controversy. The team was docked six points during the group stage after a staffer was caught using a drone to spy on New Zealand team practices.For Piovesan, the team’s run was also impressive because they pushed through without Christine Sinclair, one of the most celebrated players in the game, who retired in 2023.
