http://www.uefa.com/womenschampionsleague/news/newsid=1646403.html has the draw for the qualifying round groups. http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/General/01/64/33/58/1643358_DOWNLOAD.pdf lists the clubs. http://en.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/General/01/54/65/09/1546509_DOWNLOAD.pdf lists the country coefficients.
The latest rule change sees the runners-up from associations ranked 1-8 getting a berth for the round of 32. So the qualifying round should be much closer and exciting. Albania and Latvia will be represented by their domestic champions for the first time and the champions of Luxembourg will return after 9 years of absence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011%E2%80%9312_UEFA_Women%27s_Champions_League

Hoping Limassol will knock out another former champion. Stabæk...grr. We need those UEFA points to not fall behind Austria ... whom UEFA kindly gave a Kazakh team
Apparently Rossiyanka have signed Aline, Fabiana and Cristiane. http://fc-ross.ru/team/osnovnoy_sostav/igroki/
Does your definition of "interesting" here mean NSFW and I shouldn't click on the link while at work?
Well, the picture in question would be more appropriate for the "lingerie" league. No nudity but will definitely make you say: WTF. Knowing you, your head will probably explode, regardless.
hmm. Not that racy. If you thought that would make my head explode, you don't know me very well Though the angel wings were a bit odd -- a not that successful take off on a Victoria's Secret campaign, I'm guessing.
Any webcasting options for today's games? Let me re-phrase. Any legal webcasting options? I believe the OL game is on Eurosport. And Manya Makoski posted a webcast link in her twitter page but I'm not 100% sure that's a legal site. http://www.updatenewstv.com/2011/09/watch-match-thor-akureyri-w-vs-potsdam.html
CShVSM - Neulengbach 2-1 How do these jokers get seeded every single year? Austria are also 8th on the 2008-12 ranking and may thus get 2 teams soon (though this comedic failure may help Czech Republic or Spain to pass them...)
Czech Republic didn't win today but may qualify. Can Stabaek please kick out one of the big favorite ?
Former Team Strømmen player Cathrine Dekkerhus has just scored for Stabæk in the 54th minute! Here's the starting 11 for the home team: 1 Ingrid Hjelmseth (GK) 2 Cathrine Dekkerhus 3 Line Hauge 5 Toril Akerhaugen 7 Katrine Pedersen (C) 8 Ida Elise Enget 10 Caroline Hansen 13 Siri Nordeide Grønli 14 Ingrid Bakke 20 Lise Klaveness 23 Kristy Moore
Undeserved to no end, but it always happens when the other team decides to waste countless of good goal scoring opportunities, so it's really no miracle.
i started to have strange misgivings about what was apparently an easy tie for OL... hmmm, brand new club with money, starts dominating their domestic league outrageously from day 1 of their existence... who knows what's really under the hood? not all that much apparently: 0-9
Well it is when you consider two of their starting defenders were out with injury and they played with people barely good enough for U-19. It's amazing what going down went to Frankfurt's confidence though...suddenly their passing play went into Asker.
Very cryptic, but i did figure out that maybe Frankfurt lost. Question - why did Potsdam sub their GK after 65 mins ? Injury ?
