odessasteps Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I was thinking everything before recent growth of women's game as "gen1". Prob pre 21st century should be one gen, them 2001 to 2015/19 and then present. Also didn't have time to actually look up when Japan had won stuff, just remembered they had.

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Colombia advances for the first time ever in the WWC besting Jamaica 1-0. Inglaterra is next. The English side will be without Lauren James because of her red card (for deliberately stepping on a Nigerian defender). There's a serious chance the number of black eyes coming out of that match will outnumber the goals scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always have first gen as the 90ies 00ies teams who were contending, but it's probably something I just made up anyway. Japan was definitely there at the start, I only always had them at No. 2 in Asia early on until they overtook China, but yeah... You're definitely right that they were an established power entering this tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Australia beat France on sudden death penalties, 7-6 in the quarter-final. The longest shootout in Women's World Cup history. Feel especially for the French player, Kenza Dali who had her penalty saved, to be retaken as Australia goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold was off her line and she missed again. Arnold made three saves and missed her penalty. Edited August 12, 2023 by The Natural 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostinube Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 So there will be a first time winner this year. Two first time semi-finalists (Australia and Spain). Sweden have finished third three times and England once. Japan is out so fu-- um, go Australia, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweden also have a runners up finish to their name. But this still feels quite a bit like a changing of the guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 After two semi-final defeats, England make their first World Cup Final. I genuinely think England are going to do it which is even more impressive when you think about those who have retired like Jill Scott or done their ACL in like Beth Mead.

SirFozzie Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Three one to the ENG-ER-LAND. (Sorry, had to do it) Nice to see them win one against Aussies this summer. Considering the civil war that broke out amongst Spain's players just last year, it's a shock to see them there. Their coach seems like an asshole, but some very good players. I like England's chances though. Considering that 3 of the four semi-finalists for the WWC were Euro, can only nutrure the game more in Europe, which is great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
