The Canadian Olympic Committee and Canada Soccer are appealing FIFA's six-point penalty to the national women's soccer team in the wake of a spying scandal at the Paris Games. FIFA docked the points on Saturday as part of a punishment that included a fine and suspensions of coaching staff members for one year.
FIFA says it's deducting six points from the Canadian women's Olympic soccer team and banning three coaches for one year, including head coach Bev Priestman, after staff members were accused of using a drone to spy on other teams at the Olympics.
