Canada is appealing a six-point deduction from FIFA due to a drone-spying incident involving their women's soccer team during the Paris Olympics, with a verdict expected just hours before their crucial match against Colombia. FIFA had suspended head coach Bev Priestman and two assistants for one year after they were found using a drone to surveil New Zealand's training sessions. The Canadian Soccer Federation and Olympic Committee argue that the point deduction unfairly punishes athletes who were not involved in the actions leading to the sanction. Despite the deduction, Canada remains in contention for a quarterfinal spot if they win against Colombia. The Court of Arbitration for Sport will expedite the appeal process, holding a hearing and delivering a decision on the matter soon. The incident has raised broader questions regarding fair play and the ethical use of technology in sports.
