Vic Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 Sundhage may admit some culpability. She didn't sub any attackers until the 88th minute and the results after that are self-evident. Game stats were almost dead-even. The Damallsvenskan gives the Swedes a wide and deep pool of fresh talent. And like N-A said, congrats to them for the win.

Vic Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Germans get their U20 revenge. http://www.ussoccer.com/articles/viewArticle.jsp_13402115.html U17 Golden Boot winner Dzsenifer Marozsan (who's pair also eliminated Canada in the Fall) bagged both goals. Sydney Leroux played the 2nd half for the USA. Let's hope playing FIFA'09 is a great training tool for our U20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 The economy strikes again. The FA just pushed out the English Women's Super League from the Summer of 2010 to 2011. Too bad, would have been nice option and alternative for the game and players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 Be nice to have a CONCACAF Women's Champions League Final too. Seed the WPS finalists, take the W Final Four, and offer it to Mexican and Caribbean champs. Indiana and Pali would be good odds to pull a women's version of the Impact. Another would be the Nutrilite Women's Championship. If you ran it in the late Fall you could have the Jubilee finalists, the CIS finalists, the CCAA, etc. They would all be fresh off their titles.

Vic Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 Germany and Brazil draw 1-1 in women's international soccer friendly FRANKFURT — Brazil rallied to earn a 1-1 draw against Germany in a women's soccer friendly on Wednesday. Midfielder Maurine drew even for Brazil in the 36th minute after Anja Mittag had earlier given Germany the lead. Germany had the upper hand in the second half and Martina Mueller hit the post. The game was a repeat of the 2007 World Cup final, when Germany won 2-0. Brazil beat Germany 4-1 in the semifinal of the Beijing Olympics last year, its only win against the host of next year's World Cup. The game drew 44,825 fans to Frankfurt arena, the largest crowd in Europe for a women's match, the organizers said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 1) Two teams on fast tracks in opposite directions. They're 9 and 10 now, but three years ago were 3 and 14. 2) Last time England played in ProStar stadium in Shrewsbury they had about 10,000 fans. #) All adult tickets are amazingly $9 CDN, kids are $4.
