Allysha Lyn Chapman (born January 25, 1989) is a Canadian professional soccer player who plays as a left-back for National Women's Soccer League club Houston Dash and the Canada national team.[2]

Chapman joined the Dash in 2015 after playing the previous three seasons in Sweden.[5] After two seasons in Houston, she was traded to the Boston Breakers on November 28, 2016.[6]

Boston Breakers

Chapman appeared in 19 games in what would be her only season in Boston, as the team would fold ahead of the 2018 season.[7]

North Carolina Courage

Chapman was selected by the Courage with the 10th pick in the 2018 Dispersal Draft.[8] After seeing very minimal playing time with the Courage, she was traded to the Houston Dash on May 9.[9]

Chapman made her return to the Dash on May 15, against the Chicago Red Stars.[7]

International career

Chapman was part of the Canada national under-20 team that won the 2008 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship.[10]

She made her debut for the Canada national team on October 25, 2014.[11]

Chapman scored her first goal for Canada against Italy at the 2015 Cyprus Women's Cup.[12][11]

Chapman was named to Canada's roster for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. She played every minute of Canada's five matches. Canada was eliminated by England in the quarterfinals.[13]

Chapman was named to Canada's roster for the 2016 CONCACAF Olympic Qualifier, where Canada finished second and qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics. She won the 2016 Algarve Cup and was named to Canada's Olympic Team. Chapman played in five of Canada's six games at the Olympic Games, winning the Bronze Medal.[14]

On May 25, 2019, she was named to the roster for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup.[15]

Chapman was named to the roster for Canada's 2020 Olympic Team. Chapman played in four of Canada's six games at the Olympic Games, winning the Gold Medal.[16]

2023 FIFA Women's World Cup

In August 2023, during the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup against Australia, a live microphone picked up an exchange between Chapman and Matildas coach Tony Gustavsson after Chapman collided with Australian forward Hayley Raso.[17] Chapman said: "She fucking jumped into me, you twat." BBC sports commentator Robyn Cowen quickly apologized to viewers, saying, "Apologies there if any language was picked up on the very sensitive pitch-side microphones it seems."[18]
