Canada captain Christine Sinclair scores goal No. 180 in 1-0 win over England
MANCHESTER, England — Christine Sinclair scored career goal No. 180 to lift Canada to a 1-0 victory over England in a women’s soccer friendly Friday.
The Canadian captain pounced on the rebound after Nichelle Prince’s shot hit the crossbar and bounced back. Sinclair controlled the ball with her thigh and then knocked it in from close range with her right foot for the late winner.
The 35-year-old from Burnaby, B.C, is now just four goals back of retired American Abby Wambach’s world record of 184 goals
