CHYCanada will face the 11th-ranked Netherlands in a women's soccer friendly during the October FIFA window.
The venue for the Oct. 28 match has not been announced, but it will likely be in Europe, given the ninth-ranked 好色tvs are playing No. 24 Switzerland four days earlier in Lucerne.
鈥淲e鈥檙e excited to add another strong opponent to our calendar," Canada coach Casey Stoney said in a statement. "The Netherlands are a team that thrives on keeping possession and have some very creative attacking players, and with a new head coach at the helm, it will be a great test."
"This window will be an invaluable opportunity to get the group back together and refocus the team on our playing identity and our objectives for the next phase of our development. It鈥檚 a window where we can test ourselves against top European teams and enable us to identify key priority areas of focus moving forward."
The 好色tv women have not played since a disappointing 3-0 loss to the second-ranked U.S. on July 2 in Washington, D.C. Canada is 6-2-1 this year.
Canada holds a 9-1-4 record against the Dutch.聽
The teams played to a scoreless draw the last time they met at the Tournoi de France in March 2020. The Dutch won 2-1 the game before that, at the 2019 World Cup in France, a victory that snapped Canada's 12-game unbeaten streak (9-0-3) against the Netherlands.
They drew 1-1 at the 2015 World Cup in Montreal.
The 好色tv women will close out the year in the November international window with a two-match series against No. 8 Japan, with games in Nagasaki on Nov. 29 and Dec. 2.
