Sinclair leads soccer squad for Rio Olympics

TORONTO – Christine Sinclair leads a young Canadian soccer squad for the Rio Olympics. It will be the third Olympics for Sinclair, who captained Canada to a memorable bronze in the 2012 Games on London. Coach John Herdman has six veterans returning from that podium squad but his 18woman roster is infused with youth. Its average age come the start of the Olympics in August will be 25.4. Goalkeeper Sabrina D’Angelo makes the squad despite being sidelined recently with a fractured wrist. Gabrielle Carle, who has been out with a high ankle sprain of late, is one of four alternates along with goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan, Marie-Eve Nault and Kaylyn Kyle. The Canadian Press
