Well, there doesn't seem to exist a thread about this, so I'm starting one. Please post all the cool women's soccer videos that you know in here. Here's a short list of what I find some of the best videos out there, most of them about the Japanese national team and players: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eExkevLJREE"]Japanese Women's Soccer in 30 Seconds[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLHGHCP-yFg"]Aya Miyama[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsDF06XNauc"]Miho Fukumoto[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpjCDFU1VRE"]Mana Iwabuchi[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auvt8QxVJio"]Young Nadeshiko U-17 in FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup New Zealand 2008[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t62r4KY8984"]Nadeshiko Japan in EAFF Women's Football Championship 2010[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSMUG8UsQuI"]Nadeshiko Japan in Women's World Cup China 2007[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cypfD3CMPwg"]Nadeshiko Japan[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqGC3JBez0g"]Women's Soccer[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pu1CrkrQV_Q"]Egypt's Women Footballers[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dq3LKW3kS5s"]Old German Players[/ame] To be honest I included the last one mostly because of the music and the great video editing work...
I should be able to think of a few, just not right now. Quite collection, even if there seems to be a "blue" bias. The one about the Egyptian girls is the most rivetting - and I wonder if it will be better or worse now, after the revolution there. I had seen most but not all of the Japan ones, always good to see another. The German one of course is a labor of love effort, as these are forgotten people. In fact I think most were never even known to begin with. I thought that the header at 2:30 was the most magnificent I have ever seen (reminds me of Pujols in South Africa), but the name Nia Kunzer meant nothing. A google or two later, and I see that this was the Golden Goal at the 2003WC - a goal I could not wait up for (and I did not want to see Sweden inevitably lose). I also see she spent 50% of her career mending 4 or 5 ACL tears...uggggh. Anyway, I learned that the only Golden Goal ever to win a WC was one of absolute grace.
This should be on everyone's list http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHwnjVfEUA8 When I hear it now, I think that ColdPlay must have written their song for it.
Just uploaded today: why Japan will NOT win the WC this year, if you include Yuki who is behind the camera, their entire FW line is in this video whcih appears to be titled "strange strange games in a strange world". Nagasato has disabled comments or otherwise I would have written something about focussing on their multiple off-sides against the USA. I know, probably the moderator should remove this post as being off-topic !
We have a documentary that I think you'd love. You can check out the video, click and see the doc info and players such as Danesha Adams (Philadelphia Independance) quotes, etc. Sadly even with endorsement by Danesha and Joanna (of Philadelphia Independance) we're still having trouble raising funds. It's like no one cares about women's soccer (and the girls who are the next generation). Anyhoo...hope you like it. If you do please support it (embed it, spread the word, twitter, whatever) and donate. You can get collectible items (jerseys, etc) as well as your name in lights(in our credits) as a thank you for donating (and really it's so cheap to donate and help a film and cause...so I don't see what gives especially with an award winning director, and the US Soccer foundation backing us in addition to the quotes by soccer players.) Hopefully you guys can start a revolution of care for women/girls' soccer and we can get this out into the world where it belongs. And with the endorsement by pro athletes I also think it will be wonderful advertisement for them. Without further ado here it is. http://kck.st/hYlvrp
Yes it is a nice video, thanks for posting. Tough road in women's soccer, but perhaps this year's World Cup will help. It is in Germany and so large attendances are guarenteed; plus every game will be televised by ESPN here in the USA. So hopefully the atmosphere is noticed, even to an extent say 20% of last year's 2010 World Cup.
Aww, I didn't get to post the Netherlands' celebration because the thread was immediately derailed by USWNTrolling. Well, here's the last video! Thx for following 29: Huldiging / The honoring of Oranje Utrecht, 7 August 2017 (Mostly this is just the squad on a boat ... until @ 36:00mins when they all run awkwardly around a stage while the crowd dances to the very latest trap beats) Celebration: Van der Gragt and Van de Sanden (Image: Jip Bosch, cc-by-sa)
Brazil's national final 2nd leg in the Brasileirão Feminino was held in São Paulo in the midst of the pandemic. Here's how the event happened, from the home team Corinthians' viewpoint, against Avai/Kindermann (6 December 2020). www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9owlO5CJ6U
Melbourne City's Rhali Dobson was left stunned but overjoyed when the final match of her distinguished football career had the most unexpected fairytale ending. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-03...eague-career-with-goal-and-a-fiance/100030126 Not only did the former Matilda score a goal as her side earned a 2-1 win over Perth Glory in Thursday's W-League match but the 28-year-old received — and said "yes" to — a marriage proposal from her partner. Dobson had told City teammates on the eve of the match that she was going to retire to spend time helping partner Matt Stonham during his battle with brain cancer.
