MARSEILLE, France — Canada women’s soccer team lost a penalty shootout to Germany in the quarterfinals of the Paris Games on Saturday, ending an Olympic run marred by a drone-spying scandal.

Goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger saved two penalties then converted on her own attempt to send Germany into the semifinals with a 4-2 shootout win after a scoreless draw through extra time.

Germany, which won the gold medal in 2016, will play the United States in the semifinals Tuesday in Lyon.
