Adriana Leon's highlight-reel goal gave Canada a 2-1 victory over Brazil in a women's soccer friendly Friday, extending the Canadian women's win streak to five games.
The seventh-ranked Canadians have now won nine of their last 10 and are 11-2-3 in 2022 with the losses coming to the top-ranked Americans and No. 6 Spain .
Brazil answered in the 33rd minute with a beauty of a goal from Debinha. After a Canadian turnover, Brazil drove towards the Canadian goal and Kerolin chipped the ball past Bianca St-Georges into Debinha's path. The Brazil star forward used her torso, perhaps with a little shoulder, to chest the ball ahead and then poked it past goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan.
Sheridan started in goal behind Lawrence, Kadeisha Buchanan, Zadorsky and St-Georges. Fleming and Julia Grosso were a deep-lying midfield duo behind Nichelle Prince, Sinclair and Leon with Evelyne Viens up front.Viens came close in the ninth minute after a fine through ball by Fleming. She went past the 'keeper but the angle to goal was too tight by the time she got the ball.
Jordyn Huitema and Carle came on for Canada to start the second half. Desiree Scott, Cloe Lacasse and Sophie Schmidt followed later in the half.Sheridan needed to deflect a low cross in the 54th minute as the Canadian defence was breached. Minutes later, the Canadian 'keeper had to rise high to palm away another long-range rocket from Ary and Canada struggled to clear the ball fon the ensuing corner.
