Canada’s Women's National Team has added two European friendly matches to its international schedule for the 2013 season.
Canada will first take on England in a Women’s International Friendly on April 7 at the New York Stadium in Rotherham, England.
While Canada will face members of the England team from a quarterfinal win over Great Britain at the London 2012 Olympics – the last official meeting between the two sides was a 2-0 victory for Canada on March 7 at the 2011 Cyprus Women’s Cup.
The Canadian women have an all-time record of five wins and one loss against the England dating back to 1995.
Canada will then take on Germany in another Women’s International Friendly on June 19 at a to-be-determined venue in Germany.
The match will be the first encounter between the two sides since Canada and Germany met in the opening match of the FIFA Women’s World Cup Germany 2011 in front of a crowd of 73,680 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
The Canadian women have never earned a win versus Germany. The team is 0-10 dating back to 1994.
Canada’s next scheduled action is the 2013 Cyprus Women’s Cup to take place at various locations in Cyprus from March 4-13.
Canada’s first fixture will be a March 6 encounter with Switzerland as the GSZ Stadium in Larnaca, Cyprus.
