They play their third match in the FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup China 2007 against Australia tonight. The match kicks off at 17.00 and will be televised live on CBC (5.00 ET or 2.00 PT). Canada must win to advance to the quarter-final stage.<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200bCanada opened their competition with a 1:2 loss to group favourites Norway (Norge) on 12 September. They followed up with a 4:0 victory over Ghana on 15 September. In that match, the Canadians set national records for most goals in a FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup match (four), most career goals in the FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup by a single player (Christine Sinclair, five), and most career international caps by a player (Andrea Neil, 130).<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200bFour years ago at the FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup USA 2003, Canada entered their third match of the group stages with the same directive: win. Canada did just that, pulling off a 3:1 victory over Japan. After leaving the break tied 1-1, Christine Sinclair scored the eventual winner in the 49th minute and Kara Lang scored the insurance marker in the 72nd minute.</p>",
