U20 Draw - Japan, Congo, Germany


Vic

Recommended Posts

Group A: Chile, England, New Zealand, Nigeria

Group B: China PR, Argentina, France, USA

Group C: Canada, Japan, Congo DR, Germany

Group D: Mexico, Norway, Brazil, Korea DPR

Not a bad draw. Not the soft Group A, but better than B or D. Germany are UEFA champs (1-0 over England), but Congo are the weaker CAF representative and Japan are AFC runner's up (0-1 to Korea).

Opening results today from the 4 Nations Tournament:

Canada 2 - Mexico 1

CANADÁ (2): 1 Erin McNulty; 3 Shannon Woeller; 5 Miryam Bouchad; 8 Kaylyn Kyle; 9 Julie Arstrong; 10 Tina Romagnuolo; Allysha Chapman; 16 Jonelle Filigno; 17 Chelsea Stewart; 19 Karla Schacher; 20 Rachel Goulting.

MÉXICO (1): 1 Erika Venegas; 2 Wendoli Ortiz; 5 Janet Méndez; 7 Rosaura Gallegos; 9 Charlyn Corral; 11 Estefanía Mayor; 14 Valeria Hernández; 16 Yalu Mondragón; 19 Diana Palma; 21 Ingrid Fernández; 23 Liliana Mercado.

Goles: Primer tiempo, a los 11' Julie Armstrong © y a los 29' Tina Romagnuolo ©. Segundo tiempo, a los 45', Liliana Mercado (M).

* Mexico looked to balance, but the Canadians established a true retaining wall in the defense, forcing to the Aztecs to shoot from distance, without greater fortune.

Chile 2 - New Zealand 1

CHILE (2): 7 Christiane Endler; 2 Valentina Lefort; 5 Tatiana Pérez; 8 Karen Araya; 9 Nathalie Quezada; 11 Daniela Zamora; 14 Daniela Pardo; 15 Juanita Peña; 16 María Francisca Mardones; 17 Geraldine Leyton; 22 Daniela Fuenzalida.

NUEVA ZELANDA (1) 1 Charlotte Wood; 2 Ria Percibal; 3 Anna Green; 4 Katie Hoyle; 5 Abby Erceg; 6 Annalie Longo; 7 Elizabeth Miline; 8 Betsy Hasset; 10 Reneé Leota; 11 Hannah Wall; 13 Rosie White.

Goles: a los 45', Karen Araya, de penal (Ch). 47'', Nathalie Quezada, de penal (Ch); 58', Betsy Hasset (NZ).

* Pretty good result for an unranked team

Canadian U-20s off preparing for Chile 2008

There will be a report on the CSA site I am sure, typically any delays other than time zone differences are the result of the need for French/English translation.

And Ref it would be helpful if you would follow site policy and include a link to your information source.

You are welcome!

Game day 2 results:

Canada 1 - New Zealand 1

CANADA (1): Erin MCNULTY, Shannon WOELLER, Miryam BOUCHARD, Kaylyn KYLE, Julie ARMSTRONG, Allysha CHAPMAN, Alyssa LEGONIA (-46’ Mallory OUTERBRIDGE -86’ Karla SCHACHER), Monica LAM-FEIST (-59’ Paige ADAMS), Jonelle FILIGNO, Chelsea STEWART ©, Rachel GOULDING (-46’ Amanda ROBINSON). UNUSED: Alexandra MARTON, Eden HINGWING, Tina ROMAGNUOLO, Anoop JOSAN, Justine BERNIER, Stephanie PAZAZZO

NEW ZEALAND (1): Victoria ESSON, Ria PERCIVAL (-86’ Annalie LONGO), Anna GREEN (-46’ Betsy HASSET), Katie HOYLE, Abby ERCEG, Caitlin CAMPBELL, Renee LEOTA (-59’ Sarah MCLAUGHLIN), Hannah WALL, Merissa SMITH (-46’ Bridgette ARMSTRONG), Rosie WHITE, Elizabeth MILNE. UNUSED: Briony FISHER, Charlotte WOOD, Grace VINCENT

Goals: Myriam BOUCHARD (71), Rosie WHITE (79)

* Close game, midfield battle, Canada had the edge in the first half, more balance in the second. Both goals were a result of defensive mistakes. Canadian corner was mishandled by the Kiwis, and quick counter brought them equal.

Chile 2 - Mexico 1

* In the final game Saturday, Canada must defeat Chile to steal the tournament from them. Again, not bad for an unranked Chilean program.

I heard a rumor the other day that several (read two) of the under 20 players who are also on the National team will not be going to Chile because of prior committments. Has anyone else heard that? I notice that the current team has been having trouble scoring although their defense seems to be tighter.

We all know by now that Birarda is history, never to be heard from again. Bridge has taken over with gusto and is departing today with the team heading to Santiago. I understand they will play a prep game with England on Friday. Wish them well, no injuries, no red cards.
