Canada vs. Iceland: What you need to know
A Canadian women's team full of veterans could also see some young players get a chance to earn their first caps on Friday.
Fresh off a 1-1 road draw against World Cup champions Spain last month, the Canadian women's team heads back to the European country for its final two games of 2024.
But the Canadians won't be going up against Spain. Instead, a tough test against Iceland awaits Canada this week in the first meeting between the nations in five years. Next week, the Canadians face South Korea.
Canada is No. 6 in the latest FIFA world rankings, just seven spots above Iceland, so this should be a good test for Les Rouges as they look to end the year on a positive note.
Here’s what you need to know about Friday’s match between Canada and Iceland at the Pinatar Arena in Murcia (1:00 p.m. ET/OneSoccer).
