England won 2-1 and ended up finishing third at the tournament, beating Germany 1-0 after extra time after losing 2-1 to Japan in the semifinals. Canada hosts No. 33 Argentina in Vancouver on April 4 and at Starlight Stadium in Langford, B.C., on April 8. The Canadian women are coming off winning the Pinatar Cup in February in Spain where they defeated No. 28 Mexico 2-0 and No. 42 Taiwan 7-0 after drawing No. 17 China 1-1 in Stoney’s debut as coach. The April games are the first for the Canadian women at home since a pair of outings against Mexico in June 2024 ahead of the Olympics. They are the first in B.C. since Sinclair’s international farewell in games against Australia at the same venues in December 2023. Quinn, who has not played for Canada since the Paris Olympics, returns from injury for the Argentina series. Stoney says calling in the influential 29-year-old midfielder, now with the Vancouver Rise of the new Northern Super League, was “a decision that was obvious to me.”
