Veteran Diana Matheson survives painful toe injury, returns to Canada fold. MORE:

Diana Matheson won the last of her 203 caps for Canada in a 1-0 win over Scotland at the Algarve Cup in March 2019.

"I'd had some old ligament damage in that toe from the year before," Matheson said."It had been bothering me for ages but it was nothing we could really fix. So I'd still been playing on it. It was really innocuous. "Which in itself wasn't terrible, but the little piece of bone was in a spot where it was hitting a nerve, so I was just getting constant nerve pain every time I walked or tried to run," said the native of Oakville, Ont.

Wearing a boot after surgery, Matheson turned TV pundit during the World Cup and won kudos for her analysis and dry sense of humour. "She understands the game ... She knows the game from different perspectives and positions,'' he added. Matheson scored the decisive Olympic goal in stoppage time after the Canadians had weathered a second-half storm that saw the French hit the woodwork twice and Desiree Scott make a goal-line clearance.
