🚨 Canada MNT involved in Copa América drone use.

The backlash from the Canada women's team's Drone Gate incident has now spread to the men's side, who allegedly engaged in similar behavior during the Copa América. On Monday, New Zealand's Olympic Games opponents, the Canada Women's National Team, discovered a drone spying on a training session in Saint-Étienne ahead of their match this week.

In addition to an undisclosed member of staff being sent home for allegedly operating the drone, coach Bev Priestman was suspended for the duration of the tournament - and it has now been revealed that this may be a problem for all of Canadian senior soccer on the international level. "I have received anecdotal evidence in recent days that there was an attempted drone usage once during the Copa América," revealed Canada Soccer CEO Kevin Blue. "I have spoken with Jesse Marsch. He was aware of it after the fact, at the very least, and has opposed it as a habit to his employees. I believe the competitive integrity of the match was not jeopardized."

Blue went on to say that, in light of the present situation, the Canadian players should not be punished for actions about which they appeared to know little to nothing. "I'm stating right now that the team hasn't seen any of that tape, and the players haven't done anything illegal. I'm disappointed by the diversion this has caused, but I haven't considered leaving the squad," he said. "That's primarily because we believe we handled the situation quickly and effectively. "The players have not engaged in any unethical behaviour." In the game in question, Canada defeated New Zealand 2-1.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly

🏅Mateta shines as France defeats Egypt, securing a gold medal clash with Spain.

On Monday night, France hosted two Olympic semi-finals. This is what occurred. France advances to the final following a fierce clash with Egypt. In a tense contest, France rallied from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Egypt 2-1 in extra time. After a poor start, France improved just before the interval, with Loïc Badé hitting the post after Joris Chotard's pass. Alexandre Lacazette had a golden opportunity to score in the second half, but he hesitated and ultimately missed the shot. After absorbing all of France's pressure, Egypt proceeded to the other end, where Mahmoud Saber smashed a powerful attempt into the roof of the net. The goal ignited the game, and Hamza Alaa made a wonderful save on a Jean-Philippe Mateta header. France then hit the post twice in quick succession, with Lacazette's shot and Badé's follow-up hitting the woodwork. Les Bleus equalised thanks to a brilliantly weighted ball from Michael Olise, which Mateta converted decisively. France requested for
