Canada men?s football team decided not to suit up for their friendly with Panama because of a dispute with the Canadian football association over financial compensation and other matters, as reported by the broadcaster CTV. TSN had first reported that national team players were offered about 10% of the total amount the country would get from FIFA, set to be at least $10 million (?8m). On Saturday, Canada Soccer told TSN their offer was 60% which will be split equally between players on the men?s and women?s teams.
