    Canada's synchronized swim team must have clairvoyant powers. During its first event in the team competition, its soccer-themed routine was a moving, early tribute to the gold-medal winning U.S. soccer team.

    Thanks, Canadian synchronized swimming team. It's nice of you to look past the bad blood between the two countries' soccer teams to craft this lovely tribute.
