Olympic Games women’s football champions Canada are set to begin the journey to defend their crown with a qualifying game against Jamaica.
The North American country surprised the entire in Tokyo 2020 by clinching the gold medal at the expense of much-established teams like Germany and the United States.
The country’s football federation released the list of the invited players for the game and the surprise inclusion was the Nigeria-born forward Annabel Chukwu.
Chukwu hit the limelight earlier in the year when she scored a brace and eventually qualified the country for the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup slated for 2024.
She narrowly missed the roster to represent Canada at the just concluded World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
