The team will come home with players returning to their clubs in the week leading up to the inaugural National Women&rsquo;s Soccer League season.</p><p>Canada successfully built towards added-time heroics against France (courtesy Kaylyn Kyle&rsquo;s fifth international goal), but had the trick turned on them three days later when England&rsquo;s Ellen White scored a 92nd-minute winner in Rotherham, England. White&rsquo;s 13th international goal was the lone marker of the Canada-England rematch from the 2013 Cyprus Women&rsquo;s Cup final, also a 1:0 victory for England.</p><p>&ldquo;We are still trying some new things, so it may take us awhile to gel, but we are lucky because we have 2-3 years before we play in that FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup in Canada,&rdquo; said Canadian head coach John Herdman. &ldquo;It is nice to be able to test a few things at this stage.&rdquo;</p><p>Of note during the trip to Europe, Diana Matheson made her 150th appearance for Canada on 7 April while debutant Kylla Sjoman made her first-ever appearance in the same match. Goalkeeper Erin McLeod was Canada&rsquo;s player of the match in the 1:1 draw with France while teenaged centre back Kadeisha Buchanan was Canada&rsquo;s player of the match in the 0:1 loss to England.</p><p>Canada&rsquo;s next Women&rsquo;s International Friendly match is <a href=\"http://canadasoccer.com/?gid=1118&amp;t=game_summary_soccer_new\">Sunday 2 June at BMO Field</a> against CONCACAF rival USA. The upcoming match will serve as Canada&rsquo;s international homecoming following the bronze-medal performance at the London 2012 Women&rsquo;s Olympic Football Tournament. The 2 June match will be followed by an away international <a href=\"http://canadasoccer.com/?gid=1114&amp;t=game_summary_soccer_new\">against Germany on 19 June</a>.</p><p><a href=\"http://canadasoccer.com/?gid=1113&amp;t=game_summary_soccer_new\"><strong>Match Report: Canada WNT 0:1 England</strong></a></p><p><em>CANWNT: CAN 0-1 ENG, Post match reaction from Erin McLeod</em></p>",
