U.S. WNT Ready to Face China on Super Sunday Our forgotten German international, Bettina Wiegmann. Is there any news whether Pia has been able to change her mind about leaving the Breakers and WUSA?
Check the Breakers photo page for a shot of Kluegel "bulking up". Also a shot of another Breaker in Asia, but not at Four Nations - Monica Gonzalez in Thailand.
According to one of her former teammates who spoke to her in China, Bettina is about to start her coaching of a U-15 team in another week. I don't think she is returning.
U.S. Women Fall to China 2-0 US gave up two first half goals. Ninty minutes for Angela Hucles and 66 minutes for Kluegel as a starter. Kate Sobrero sat this one out. Germany and Norway played to a 2-2 draw with Snoop Dagny picking up another goal. US plays Germany on Wednesday.

1-0 Win Over Germany Another 90 minutes for Angela Hucles, full 90 for Sobrero, too. Let's hope that she keeps that form when she rejoins the Breakers!
