British media ‘BBC’ reported on the 27th (Korea time) that “Canadian officials used drones before the 2024 Paris Olympics and mentioned that the gold medal in the women’s soccer event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics could be tarnished.”
“Canadian media reported that both men’s and women’s teams relied on drones for a long time. Kevin Blue, CEO of the Canadian Football Association, said that the men’s national team received feedback related to drone use during the “2024 Copa America.”
According to the media, CEO Blue said, “I know of an attempt to use drones in Copa America,” adding, “I spoke with director Jesse Marsch after the incident, and he reprimanded the staff.”
Debide Schumaker, chairman of the Canadian Olympic Committee, shook his head, saying that the controversy over the use of drones could tarnish the victory at the Tokyo Olympics, adding, “It’s frustrating to think that there’s something to suspect.”
Earlier, Canada was criticized for flying drones to the opposing training ground before the first Group A match against New Zealand in the women’s soccer qualifying round for the Paris Olympics.
As the controversy grew, Chairman Schumaker brought the coaches in question, including Beverly Priestman, who led the Canadian women’s national soccer team, to his home country to extinguish it 메이저놀이터
Coach Priestman became a national hero at the Tokyo Olympics, winning the first gold medal in women’s soccer at the Canadian Olympics, but he is criticized for spying on training using drones.
“The players were not involved in unethical behavior,” CEO Blue said. “I ask FIFA to consider this.”
