FIFA said on the 28th (Korea time) that it will cut six points for the Canadian women’s national team participating in the Paris Olympics. The Canadian Football Association was fined 200,000 Swiss francs (about 310 million won).
FIFA also suspended Canadian coach Priestman, coach Mander and power analyst Lombardi for one year.
Canada, which won the gold medal in women’s soccer at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, was discovered on the 22nd while attempting to collect information by flying a drone to the training ground of the New Zealand national team, the opponent of the first group stage of the Paris Olympics.
After receiving a report from the New Zealand national team, a French police officer was dispatched and an analyst with the Canadian team was arrested. The Canadian team excluded Jasmine Mander, a senior coach, and Joseph Lombardi, a power analyst who were involved in the case from the team. Coach Beverly Priestman also failed to follow suit.메이저사이트
Canada won 2-1 at the New Zealand match on the 26th, even without both the coach and the head coach. However, Canada, which has lost six points due to FIFA’s disciplinary action, will play the second and third games with -3 points.
