It is against all fair play however this is not isolated and likely more will be released, and especially as it is seeming this was regular practice by flying drones at other country closed practice.

I hate that Canada did this!!


Spying and cheating is not new - Canada only the latest caught:

Drone in 2014 -

"...Asked if he had sent anyone to spy on another team during his career, Guardiola said: "In other countries everybody does that. They are open. When I was training in Munich there were people on the mountain [overlooking training] with cameras and long lenses watching what we were doing. Everybody does it.

"It's the culture of all the clubs, not just the previous ones where I worked. It was a part of the club. But I'm not going to send someone to Huddersfield if that is the question."..."

Diving - which occurs all the time even now (see latest competition):
