Match Review CAN - URU 2-0

Canada claimed their first win of the World League semi-final in Valencia as second quarter goals from Kaelan Watson and Danielle Hennig earned them a 2-0 win and ninth place from the competition ahead of Uruguay.

The first quarter was an even affair with Sara McManus drawing a great low stop from Rosanna Paselle while Anastasia Olave’s piledriver brought Kaitlyn Williams into action, extending a full length boot to deny her. The Canadians, though, took full control in the second phase of the tie. First, Watson picked up a rebound after Uruguay had saved on the goal line to make it 1-0. Then, Danielle Hennig roofed a drag-flick in the 29th minute to build a strong lead.

Canada continued the momentum into the second half but could not finish off some exciting right wing moves with a couple of crosses flashing past the face of goal. Uruguay pushed for goals in the closing quarter with Florencia Norbis denied by Williams who scrambled across her goal line brilliantly to snuff out the chance. She also kept out a corner with a low stick-save before Paselle did likewise – albeit in more spectacular style with her left glove.

It was their last act of the tournament as Canada held firm with their two-goal advantage.
