CanWNT Talk: Bev Priestman's side still lacking killer instinct

For the second time in 35 days, the Canadian women’s team couldn’t hold its nerve in a penalty shootout against the United States. 

Canada showed a lot of heart in going toe-to-toe with the U.S. in Tuesday’s SheBelieves Cup final, a performance that was highlighted by Adriana Leon’s brace. But it was the Americans who emerged victorious in the penalty shootout that directly followed the 2-2 draw in regulation time between the nations, beating the Canadians 5-4 in seven rounds at Lower.com Field in Columbus, Ohio. 

The U.S. also earned a penalty shootout win over Canada last month in the semifinals of the Concacaf W Gold Cup. 

In the latest TFC Republic video blog, I offer my thoughts on Canada's performance against the U.S.
