Hey there, time traveller!

On Tokyo Daily, host Brendan Dunlop recaps a historic win for Canadian soccer with Laura Armstrong of the Toronto Star after the women’s team beat the United States in the semifinals to avenge the heartbreak of London 2012.
It was the first time the Canadian women beat the U.S. since 2001. At 38, soccer icon Christine Sinclair will play for an Olympic gold medal.
They discuss how Canada pulled off the upset, what it means for this American dynasty and the impact the win will have on growing the fanbase for the women’s game in this country.
