Le Canada a entamé sa campagne des World Rugby Pacific Four Series 2024 par une victoire 50-7 sur les États-Unis au Dignity Health Sports Park de Los Angeles, dimanche 28 avril.

Les finalistes de l’édition 2023 ont inscrit huit essais malgré l’écart de cinq places qui les sépare dans le classement mondial féminin de World Rugby.

La capitaine Sophie de Goede a une nouvelle fois été indispensable en inscrivant deux essais et en passant 18 points au pied. Claire Gallagher a également inscrit un doublé lors d’une prestation impressionnante à l’ouverture.

« C’était un match très physique, surtout en première période, comme on pouvait s’y attendre contre les États-Unis », a réagi la capitaine De Goede après la victoire.

« On a vraiment dû travailler dur sur cette première période avant d’accélérer le rythme en seconde période et je suis très fière de la façon dont nous l’avons fait.

« Nous devions juste faire en sorte de faire circuler le ballon plus rapidement et d’anticiper un peu plus.

« Le placement du ballon était correct en première période, mais nous n’étions pas assez proactives dans nos positionnements pour mettre la pression avec nos courses, et elles faisaient un très bon travail en montant très vite. »

Deux essais en 10 minutes

Jouant devant leurs supporters pour la première fois depuis 2021, les États-Unis ont bien débuté la rencontre, mais le Canada a pris l’avantage 10-0 en autant de minutes.

Deux essais suite à deux mauls inarrêtables initiés à l’extérieur des 22 des Women’s Eagles ont enfoncé la défense américaine.

Claire Gallagher a été la première à bénéficier du bon travail des avants, leurs impacts au milieu créant de l’espace pour que la demie d’ouverture puisse franchir.

Tyson Beukeboom, sur le point de devenir la détentrice du record de sélections pour le Canada, honorait ensuite sa 66e cape par un essai, la deuxième-ligne aplatissant à la suite d’un puissant groupé pénétrant.

Sophie de Goede n’ayant pas réussi à ajouter les extras à chaque fois, le Canada comptait autant de points au tableau que de minutes jouées.

Cette avance de 10-0 a cependant été réduite à seulement trois points lorsque la troisième-ligne des USA Georgie Perris-Redding, auteure d’un triplé lors du match de préparation contre l’Afrique du Sud, a marqué pour débloquer le compteur des Américaines.

Le ballon aplati dans l’ombre des poteaux a permis à Gabby Cantorna de passer la transformation la plus simple. C’était alors les seuls points des USA.

Le Canada a réagi en inscrivant un troisième essai lorsque Laetitia Royer, la partenaire de deuxième-ligne de Beukeboom, s’enfonçait dans l’axe et marquait de 25 mètres, de Goede passant cette fois la transformation.

Les Etats-Unis ont continué à faire preuve d’imagination en attaque, notamment grâce à la tranchante Hope Rogers au milieu, complétés par de belles combinaisons des arrières. Mais le jeu au pied du Canada a été très efficace et les occasions furent rares dans une fin de première période sans autre point.

Les Etats-Unis sans réponse

Le Canada a accéléré le rythme au début de la deuxième mi-temps et a marqué 33 points sans réponse après la pause.

Madison Grant est passée sur l’autre aile pour marquer deux minutes après le début de la seconde période. L’essai suivant a été inscrit à la suite d’une mêlée et de Goede a marqué le premier de ses deux essais à la 50e minute.

Cinq minutes plus tard, la flanker a de nouveau aplati après une bonne combinaison avec sa collègue de la troisième-ligne, Pamphinette Buisa.

A ce stade, le Canada était en pleine ascension, mais les Etats-Unis ont réussi à ralentir le flux jusqu’à ce que Gallagher marque son deuxième essai après plusieurs phases de jeu.

L’arbitre Tyler Miller, pour son premier test au sifflet, sanctionnait alors Bulou Mataitoga d’un carton jaune pour anti-jeu sur Alexandra Tessier.

Les Etats-Unis ont eu des occasions de marquer malgré leur effectif réduit à 14 joueuses et la pression qu’elles ont exercée sur la défense canadienne a conduit à une accumulation de plaquages hauts et à un carton jaune pour Gallagher, la seule tache à son palmarès.

Le banc canadien, notamment l’arrière Fancy Bermudez, a eu un impact en fin de match et l’avant remplaçante, Julia Omokhuale, a ajouté un huitième essai vers la fin, que Tessier a transformé, pour que le Canada atteigne passe les 50 points et porte à neuf matchs sa série de victoires sur ses rivales nord-américaines.

Gregor Townsend breaks silence on his Scotland future

Months earlier, I’d sunk $156,000 into what I thought was a golden opportunity, an online cryptocurrency investment promising sky-high returns. The website was sleek, the testimonials glowing, and the numbers kept climbing. But when I tried to withdraw my profits, the platform froze. Emails went unanswered, support chats died, and my “investment” vanished into the digital ether. I’d been scammed, and the sting of it burned deep.Desperate, I stumbled across Alpha Spy Nest while scouring the web for help. Their site/reviews didn’t promise miracles, just results, specialists in tracking down lost funds from online scams. Skeptical but out of options, I reached out. The process started with a simple form: I detailed the scam, uploaded screenshots of transactions, and shared the wallet addresses I’d sent my crypto to. Within hours, they confirmed they’d take my case.What followed was like watching a high-stakes chess game unfold, though I only saw the moves, not the players. Alpha Spy Nest dove into the blockchain, tracing my funds through a maze of wallets designed to obscure their path. They explained how scammers often use mixers to launder crypto, but certain patterns like timing and wallet clustering, could still betray them. I didn’t understand half of it, but their confidence kept me hopeful. Hours later, they updated me: my money had landed in an exchange account tied to the scam network. They’d identified it through a mix of on-chain analysis and intel from sources I’d never grasp. After 24 hours, i got a message, my funds were frozen in the scammer’s account pending review. Alpha Spy Nest had apparently flagged it just in time.  After some back-and-forth, the exchange with the help of Alpha Spy Nest reversed the transactions, and $145,000 of my original $156,000 hit my wallet. The rest, they said, was likely gone forever, siphoned off early. I never met anyone from Alpha Spy Nest, never heard a voice or saw a face. Yet, their methodical precision pulled me back from the brink. My money wasn’t fully restored, but the recovery felt like a win, a lifeline from a faceless ally in a world of digital shadows.

Everything appeared professional-the website was well-designed, customer service was responsive, and my trading account even showed promising returns.It all seemed too good to be false.However, when I attempted to withdraw my funds, I was met with endless delays and excuses. First, they claimed there were technical issues, then they needed additional verification, and finally, they requested a release fee before processing my withdrawal. Despite complying with their demands, my account was eventually frozen, and all communication from the platform ceased. That's when reality hit me—l had been scammed out of half a million dollars. Desperate to find a way to recover my money, I searched online for solutions. That's when I came across PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY, a company dedicated to helping victims of online financial fraud.

I am incredibly grateful to PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY for not only retrieving my funds but also restoring my peace of mind.
