Dash's Janine Beckie says Canada slighted by FIFA list

When Janine Beckie walked off the pitch for the final time in Brazil last summer it was hard for her to fathom what she and the Canada Women's National Team had accomplished.

Canada won the bronze medal for a second consecutive Olympics – a significant feat considering the team had not done much at major competitions before the 2012 Olympics.

Beckie, the Dash forward who scored the fastest goal in Olympic history this summer, thought the world might take notice. On Friday morning the Texas Tech graduate got some bad news from FIFA.

Canada might still have a ways to go.
