Canada looked like the better team throughout the match, and deservedly took all three points. This win will give them a huge boost of confidence going into their next match against Sweden. Canada are now proved capable of beating any team on their day, and will be a force to be reckoned with in the last 16.

It was an impressive victory for the Canadians, who looked dominant from start to finish. They outshot the Slovaks 46-17 and got goals from 11 different players.

With the win, Canada improves to 2-0 in the tournament and will now face off against the United States in a highly anticipated matchup on Saturday. Canada doubled their lead in the 58th minute when David Wotherspoon scored with a beautiful volley. Slovakia pulled one back in the 87th minute but it was not enough as Canada held on to win 2-1.

This was a massive win for Canada, who are now through to the knockout stage of the World Cup for the first time in their history. Canada will now face either England or Colombia in the round of 16.

The shot took a huge deflection off the head of a Slovakian defender, looped over the stranded goalkeeper and bounced into the empty net. Canada were 2-1 up and on their way to an unlikely – but deserved – victory.

This was a Canada side that had been written off before a ball had been kicked. They were up against a Slovakia team that had reached the last 16 of the World Cup four years ago, and were expected to comfortably progress from a group that also included New Zealand and Chile.

But Canada had other ideas. They went toe-to-toe with Slovakia in their opening game, eventually losing 2-1 after a late goal from Janine Beckie. Against New Zealand, they were 2-0 up within 15 minutes and never looked back, running out 4-1 winners.

The Canada captain now has 181 goals in 265 appearances for her country, and is just four behind Abby Wambach’s all-time international scoring record. She will have the chance to close the gap when Canada take on Sweden in the last 16.

But Canada’s win against Slovakia was about more than just Sinclair. It was about a team that is starting to believe in itself, and is capable of beating anyone on its day.

Canada’s victory against Slovakia was nothing short of miraculous. The young team showed great resilience in coming from behind twice to earn a draw, before finally winning in spectacular fashion thanks to a wonder goal from Jessie Fleming.

What an incredible achievement for Canada! They have made history and will be a force to be reckoned with in the knockout stage. Congratulations to Canada on their impressive win!
