What is the Arnold Clark Cup? Well, this is the first edition of an international friendly tournament organized by England where four of the best national teams in the world will face each other in a match in search of continuing to gain contact and experience ahead of the EURO held this year in English territory. .
The teams invited to this tournament are nothing more and nothing less than Spain, Germany, Canada and obviously, England, which is the host of the event.

Similarly, Canada also presented its squad for this tournament with the great absence of figure and scorer Christine Sinclair due to the fact that, unfortunately, her mother lost the fight against multiple sclerosis after 40 years.

As for Spain, they will begin their participation on February 17 starting against the Germans. Later they will face the hosts, England on February 20 and will close their participation on February 23 against the maple leaf when Spain will face Canada.
