Match Report

Canada scored twice at home in front of a sold-out Hamilton crowd, but ultimately fell 2:3 to the Olympic champions Germany at Tim Hortons Field. Christine Sinclair and Jessie Fleming were the Canadian goalscorers in front of the 22,826 fans at the Sunday afternoon match at Tim Hortons Field.

Germany's Svenja Huth opened the scoring in the first minute after taking advantage of a miss clearance by the Canadian defence. Sinclair then evened the scoring just before the hour mark on a header and then assisted on the Fleming go-ahead goal 10 minutes later. Sara Däbritz equalised a minute later and Turid Knaak scored the winner with just six minutes remaining.

Lineup & Notes:
Canada's starting XI featured Stephanie Labbé in goal, Rebecca Quinn, Kadeisha Buchanan and Shelina Zadorsky along the back, and Diana Matheson, Ashley Lawrence, Desiree Scott, Christine Sinclair, Sophie Schmidt, Janine Beckie, and Jessie Fleming from the midfield up through to the attack.

In the second half, coach Kenneth Heiner-Møller replaced Schmidt with Allysha Chapman (73'), Matheson with Nichelle Prince (73'), and Scott with Adriana Leon (89').
