For the American women, header after header is missing the Canadian net. It's been 11 years since Canada beat the United States in women's soccer and they're 0-22-4 in the last 26 matches. But Monday night in Manchester, the Canadians jumped to 1-0 lead in the first half at the Olympics on a goal by Canadian captain Christine Sinclair. The game is still being played. A win over the U.S. would guarantee Canada its first top-three finish at an Olympics or World Cup. — Joseph White — Twitter http:www.twitter.com/JGWhiteAP EDITOR'S NOTE — "Eyes on London" shows you the Olympics through the eyes of Associated Press journalists across the 2012 Olympic city and around the world.
