The Canadian women look to end a turbulent SheBelieves Cup on a winning note Wednesday when they take on No. 11 Japan in Frisco, Texas.
For coach Bev Priestman, it's one more chance to test new partnerships and young talent on the pitch ahead of this summer's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
Under the cloud of their ongoing labour dispute with Canada Soccer, the Canadian women lost 2-0 to the U.S. in Orlando last Thursday before bouncing back to defeat Brazil 2-0 in Nashville on Sunday."They'll be resolute. They'll be hard to break down," Priestman said of Japan. "But I also think we'll have to be patient and disciplined in the way that we defend. The minute you start chasing things independently as a group, they have the quality to break you down.
Priestman said one player will undergo a fitness test Wednesday morning ahead of the game. She did not identify the player.Priestman, who used all her substitutes in the first two games of the tournament, said she planned to give Gabrielle Carle and Clarissa Larissey playing time Wednesday. They are the only two outfield players yet to see the field at the tournament.
