Paris Olympics: Canada Women's Football Team Docked Six Points For Spying Scandal; Three Coaches Banned
FIFA Disciplinary Committee: Canada’s women's football team has been handed a six-point deduction at the Paris Olympics and three members of its coaching staff were banned for one year each on Saturday amidst a drone spying scandal. They were allegedly caught using drones to spy on opponent New Zealand’s practice sessions before their opening game on Wednesday.
“Following disciplinary proceedings opened against the Canadian Soccer Association (CSA), and its officials Beverly Priestman, Joseph Lombardi and Jasmine Mander, the Chairman of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee decided to refer the case directly to the FIFA Appeal Committee in accordance with article 56.3 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code (FDC),” FIFA said in a statement on Saturday.
“This decision was taken due to the possibility that the outcome of the proceedings affects the development of the ongoing Women’s Olympic Football Tournament - Games of the XXXIII Olympiad Paris 2024 Final Competition (OFT) and with the aim to safeguard the respondents’ rights,” it added.
