    Canada lost 3-1...

    Our keeper got a red card in the 2nd minute and the resulting PK gave China the 1-0 lead.

    Certainly a disappointment to see Canada lose in the QF's.

    geez. here's an excerpt from the match report:

    "The match started with a ringing volley of incident as Chinese midfielder Lou Xiaoxu rounded Van Boxmeer and went to ground in a heap. Though there appeared to be minimal - if any - contact, referee Anna De Toni of Italy did not hesitate pointing to the spot and brandishing red for the Canuck keeper. "

    I haven't watched any of the games yet but they are all on tape.

    Still disappointing because I had high hopes they would be the first Canadian team to win a World Championship.

    Shame the Referee decided to put her name in the headlines. The keeper was not even clsoe to touching the Chinese player.
