A 1-0 win today for the Olympic Champions at the Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane got Canada off to a flying start in their two-match series against the Matildas, and there was a significant Celtic angle in this match as Celtic star Clarissa Larisey came off the bench to win her first cap and afterwards received praise from the team Canada manager Bev Priestman.
Reaction @CANWNT HC Bev Priestman 🎤:
“I couldn’t be more proud because, whatever they faced, whether it be travel delays, injuries to the squad and all those sorts of things, when the whistle went, they got down to business and delivered. That makes me really proud.”#WeCAN pic.twitter.com/KzSTjYX55u
