Christine Sinclair, the iconic captain of Canada's women's soccer team, initially contemplated retirement after winning gold at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. She continued to chase success at the World Cup but was disappointed by Canada's performance. Consequently, Sinclair has announced her retirement from international football at the end of the year.

Sinclair holds the record for the most international goals scored with 190 goals in 327 senior appearances. She plans to play one more season for the NWSL Portland Thorns. Sinclair will bid farewell to the national team by playing four more games in Canada.

Throughout her illustrious career, Sinclair has been a symbol of Canadian soccer, known for her consistent goal-scoring ability and dedication to the team. She is considering a coaching role after retiring.

Sinclair's career spanned several decades and included multiple Olympics, including a bronze medal in 2016. Her famous hat trick in the 2012 London semi-final against the United States remains an unforgettable moment in Canadian soccer history.

Despite challenges and evolving roles, Christine Sinclair leaves an enduring legacy in Canadian soccer.
