In facing Germany and the United States next month ahead of this summer's FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, Cindy Tye's young Canadian side will test itself against two of the most successful teams at this age group.
The Canadians will face the U.S. on April 7 at Stadion am Furlbach before taking on Germany on April 9 at Sportclub Arenal Verl. Canada will be without injured forward Anabelle Chukwu, who scored twice in extra time last June to help Canada qualify for the FIFA tournament by defeating Costa Rica 5-3 to finish third at the CONCACAF Women’s Under-20 Championship in the Dominican Republic.
Tye will also be without attacking midfielder/forward Olivia Smith, who was also at the CONCACAF U-20 tournament. The 19-year-old from Whitby, Ont., who plays professionally in Portugal for Sporting CP, has won eight caps for the senior side already and is in contention for a spot on Bev Priestman's Olympic roster.
Tye expects Allen to arrive in came with a"new confidence" from her Orlando experience. Allen came off the bench against Brazil in November 2022 to make her senior debut. The European trip marks the first time Tye has had her team together since Canada qualified for the FIFA showcase. Tye, who is restricted to a 21-woman roster for the FIFA U-20 World Cup, hopes to get another camp in before assembling her squad for the Colombia tournament but says nothing is confirmed yet.Goalkeepers: Sofia Cortes-Browne, National Development Centre Ontario; Faith Fenwick, Gonzaga University ; Noelle Henning, National Development Centre Ontario.
