Jul 27, 2024, 05:34 PM
FIFA has imposed significant penalties on the Canada women's soccer team following a drone spying scandal. Head coach Bev Priestman and assistant coaches Joseph Lombardi and Jasmine Mander have been banned from soccer-related activities for one year. The team has also been deducted six points in the Olympic women's soccer tournament and fined $226,000, severely impacting their chances of defending their gold medal from the Tokyo Games. The sanctions were a result of Canada using drones to spy on New Zealand's training sessions before the start of the Paris Olympics.
