  "account": "OTTAWA - In a thrilling clash of Canadian women's soccer teams, AFC Toronto secured their first Diana B. Matheson Cup title with a 1-0 victory over the Montreal Roses on Saturday at TD Place. The decisive goal was scored by 17-year-old Olivia Chisholm in the 39th minute of the first half. Chisholm, making her professional debut, took advantage of a space near the top of the box to side-foot the ball past goalkeeper Gabrielle Lambert, securing her first professional goal in the process. Montreal, who finished first overall in the league standings, had led the competition with 48 goals throughout the season. AFC Toronto, looking to bounce back from their loss in last year's final to the Vancouver Rise, had previously beaten Ottawa 8-2 on aggregate in the semifinals. Despite generating 14 shots during the match, Montreal was unable to find the back of the net and fell short in their attempt at a championship double, having previously won the Supporters' Shield.",
