Canada has qualified for next summer’s FIFA Women’s World Cup France 2019 after defeating Panama 7-0 in the tournament Semi-Final in Frisco, Texas.   


“I’m very happy for this team. For us, qualifying that’s the only thing we talked about getting here, that was for us to qualify,” said Canadian Women’s National Team Head Coach Kenneth Heiner-Moller. “Right now, everyone needs to decompress a little bit. We’ve qualified so now we need to set a new goal.”


Canada will now move on to the Final against the winner of tonight’s second Semi-Final match between hosts USA and Jamaica.  The Final will be held on Wednesday, October 17th at 8:00 p.m. ET and fans can watch the match on Concacaf Go at cwc.concacafgo.com or on FS1 or FS2 (depending on the MLB Playoffs schedule). The game will also be available on UDN.
