For Kicks Podcast, Episode 79: Tokyo 2021 Olympics – Canada vs. Great Britain and Brazil

For Kicks

In Jess’s words, “I can’t even say how much I love this team.”

After coming second in Group E following a draw with Great Britain, Canada opposed Brazil in the quarter-finals and will advance to the semi-finals following a dramatic win in penalty kicks.

In this episode we talk about the matches vs. Great Britain and Brazil in an attempt to process all our emotions. We also talk about our upcoming semi-final match vs. USA and Canada’s chances to take a medal in the finals.
