The Canadian Women's National Soccer Team kicked off its 2019 season on the right note Tuesday with a 1–0 win against Norway in an international friendly.

Held to a 0–0 draw for the first 65 minutes, Christine Sinclair gave Canada the lead with a header from the box off of a cross from Jenna Hellstrom. The goal was the 178th of Sinclair's career, which puts her six goals away from tying American Abby Wambach as FIFA's all-time career international goals leader.
