Women's World Cup France 2019

"Winner of Group E gets runner up of Group B, runner up from Group E gets runner up from Group F"

Winner crosses over with D and not B.

Win the group and probably get:
- England (4)/Japan (8) in the 16
- Australia (6)/Brazil (10) in the quarter
- Germany (2)/Dutch (7)/Swedes (9) in the semi

Lose the group to the Dutch and probably get:
- Sweden (9) in the 16
- Germany (2) in the quarter
- England (4)/Japan (8)/Dutch (7) in the semi

Pick your poison. Coming in second in group gets you an easier round of 16 but a more difficult quarter.

Whoops, must've been looking at F instead of E, thanks for catching that. I agree, England in the 16 would be tough.

We've got 9 in both cities and might buy more because they are only 9 euros each. The tickets are in the end sections but you don't actually get seats until later so if we do another 9 there is no certainty they will be together but I think we can request they are.

 

Anyways not all of these tickets have been spoken for yet so just let me know if you are interested

Is there ea limit?  I have given up trying to get an answer. 

 

We couldn't organize anything in our own country, so it shouldn't be a surprise.

Be interesting to see where the games are and vantage points and if Spain has updated their drone laws. Otherwise the warm-up might be who can take a ball and knock one out of the air. My money's on Ramona Bachman.

Norwegians often goes to La Manga, it's like a home game for them.

More impressive it's not just their national team but all the club teams in the top league that go somewhere south and sunny for a week  in the winter for training camps and friendlies amongst themselves. In the past the league has sent them all to Spain, Portugal, etc. I think this year it's Turkey.

That's another good way to keep Canadian women playing past 18... no one ever looked down at a free week-long trip to the Caribbean mid-winter every year.
