There's a lot of people on this thread seem to be disparaging the womens' game as it's very different from watching England mens' or the Toon, but the womens game over here is amateur isn't it - so it would be below Gateshead's level at best?

 

Some countries have professional womens leagues but I can't remember which. Presumably the ones who are the top few favourites for this Cup - anyone know how the rankings go for the teams there?

you are right tho, the womens game is light years behind the premiership in terms of finances. etc

Both goals yesterday were quality like. And that overhead kick was something special.

 

Good game yesterday, we played very defensive and hit on the break when we could. We don't have the attacking fluidity of many of the other sides but we do have a lot of fight and a couple of half decent technical players. We can't mark for s*** but can somehow get a foot in the right place when the ball is on the ground.

 

That Asante played like a beast, no idea why she hasn't been playing every game, great DM. Ironically since my last post Kelly Smith was probably one of the worst players yesterday. Aluko is kinda a cross between Routledge and Ameobi with considerably less skill than both. Does alot of the hard work but turns into Jason Lee in and around the penalty box or providing a cross.

 

Ellen White looked the part yesterday, overhead kick would have been a stunner and the lob was nicely done.

 

Definately rather face the French than the Germans, either way we will be lucky to stay in, French are great attacking, we will be in pieces with every cross they put in and I don't think we can out score them.

Japan were ranked fourth, France are ranked eighth - both above England.

 

Anyone know the other teams' rankings?
