Finally had the time to watch highlights: nice goals in the 2nd Half. Mina Tanaka was indeed as wasteful as she uses to be: the score could have been better without all of her misses. Also worried about the Kitagawa's situation: let's hope she recovers in time.
Japan WNT has arrived in France and started a training camp for the Paris Olympics in Le Touquet. They will play a training match against Columbia WNT July 19th.

Even though the opening Olympic match is at midnight Japan time, it seems NHK will be broadcasting it live. In the UK, one of the BBC channels will show it (not confirmed yet which one); in some other European countries Discovery+ will stream it. Undoubtedly there will be others.

The top two finishers in each group, together with the two best third-placed teams, will advance to the knockout stage. (hosts) - Wuhan Jiangda (A), College of Asian Scholars (B), Ho Chi Minh City (C) The preliminary stage will be played from 25 to 31 August 2024. Teams in each group play one another in a centralised single round-robin format in each group. Preliminary stage group winners advance to Group Stage. (hosts) - Al Nassr (A), Etihad (B), Sabah FA (C), Royal Thimphu College FC (D)
It's a shame, Urawa have no chance of meeting Young Elephants FC with all of their new Japanese signings! By the way, How likely do you think it is that the Laotian team's market-campaign had indeed this new continental competition in mind? They needed something more to compete on the international stage and not just on the domestic scene.
Very likely. It's all about money. Even for professional league team like Urawa earning 1,4 million $ (for winning AWCL) is a very nice bounus (I would estimate it's around 1/3 maybe 1/4 of Urawa's total budget). Teams from amateur or semi-pro leagues have much less money (around 400k - 800k $ on average) thus earning 200k or 300k for participating in Group Stage is nothing to sneez at for them. AWCL prize purse is good incentive to invest in woso.
Heh, true... I believe however that a week before Olympics start players on both ends of the pitch were rather behaving themselves - not risikng any last minute injury. My source tells me Nadeshiko scored first in 2nd half but Colombia equalized soon after.
If I remember correctly, a closed door friendly before the WWC between Ireland and Colombia was cancelled mid game due to rough play. Hence, I don’t think this logic applies to Colombia.
Yuria Sasaki's Boca Juniors won Aperatura Championship in Argentina and thus qualified for Copa Libertadores. Ichika Egashira's River Plate (currently 3rd in table - equal on points with 2nd Racing Club) will finish second or third - depending on the result of todays away game with Racing. FELICIDADES A YURIA SASAKI y a @BocaJrsFutFem por su Campeonato en el Apertura 2024 !!!! 🇦🇷🏆 https://t.co/baX9NgVpzM pic.twitter.com/EjkTE19Upk— Cancha Sakura ⚽️🌸🇯🇵 (@CanchaSakura) July 20, 2024
3 days to the first matches. Good news is Tanikawa looks healthy. Waiting for the refs appointments... preferably no Karboubi (MAR), Beida (MTN), Martinez (HON) or Eskas (NOR) ... please
What happened to the star over the crest? They took group picture and played training match without it.
Probably those were some extra training kits (JFA logo also was missing on it) ... meanwhile ref Yoshimi Yamashita will see the action from matchday 1... but in men's tourney Egypt - Dominican Republic Yoshimi Yamashita JPN A1: Makoto Bozono JPN A2: Naomi Teshirogi JPN 4th: Odette Hamilton JAM VAR: Sivakorn Pu-Udom THA AVAR: Hector Paletta ARG
