Olivia Smith’s Canada were eliminated from the U20 Women’s World Cup after a 2-1 defeat by Spain overnight.

The Liverpool FC Women forward played the whole of the last-16 encounter in Cali, Colombia.

Canada captain Florianne Jourde gave her country a lead in the second half, but Jone Amezaga quickly equalised for the reigning champions.

Silvia Lloris then provided a winner for Spain in the 81st minute, meaning Smith and Canada now head home.
