The football tournaments of the Paris Olympic Games continue to be filled with striking stories.

This time, it was the Canadian women's team that gained notoriety, as representatives were observed using drones to monitor the training sessions of the New Zealand team on two occasions.

According to journalist Devin Heroux, as soon as the Canadian Olympic Committee learned of this behavior, they swiftly took action.

It has been reported that analyst Joseph Lombardi and assistant coach Jasmine Mander were immediately sent home.

Meanwhile, head coach Bev Priestman managed to avoid "deportation," but he will be sidelined from his duties for the match against New Zealand.

Additionally, all members of the Canadian team will be required to participate in a lecture on the fundamentals of ethical behavior.
