hey guys- just starting this for next week ... i'm super anxious to see how things develop and am looking forward to seeing team canada back in action. all of canada's games will be broadcasted on sportsnet (either live or on tape-delay depending on your region ... check local listings) ... any coverage in the states??? elaine
I heard that all of the US matches won't be broadcasted, this offcourse makes the perfect score 2-0 after non of men qualifying matches were broadcasted recently, thanks USSF !!!!!
Latin America Soccer Audio I found this website Latin America Soccer Audio website http://www.socceraudio.com/latinamer.htm T They list all the countries & Costa Rica has 2 stations to listen via internet. They should have the games live. I hope!!!!
Here is a pic from the Canadian practice in Costa Rica: http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=sjo10402232244.costa_rica_canada_practice_sjo104&prov=ap ------- From FIFA.com: Two Athens tickets up for grabs in Costa Rica Pellerud: “Athens…the only focus” Eight Contenders converge on Costa Rica -------- From CONCACAF.com: 2004 CONCACAF Women Pre-Olympic event set for this Wednesday
[R] Day 1 MEX 5 - HAI 0 Patricia Perez x 3, Maribel Domínguez x 2 USA 7 - TRI 0 Shannon Boxx x 3, Mia Hamm x 2, Kristine Lilly, Abby Wambach J
pics from the mexico-haiti game: http://wwwi.reuters.com/images/2004-02-25T203225Z_01_CRI01D_RTRIDSP_2_SPORT-SOCCER.jpg http://wwwi.reuters.com/images/2004-02-25T202839Z_01_CRI02D_RTRIDSP_2_SPORT-SOCCER.jpg http://wwwi.reuters.com/images/2004-02-25T215237Z_01_CRI04D_RTRIDSP_2_SPORT-SOCCER.jpg http://wwwi.reuters.com/images/2004-02-25T215441Z_01_CRI05D_RTRIDSP_2_SPORT-SOCCER.jpg http://wwwi.reuters.com/images/2004-02-25T212136Z_01_CRI03D_RTRIDSP_2_SPORT-SOCCER.jpg i wonder how the haitians feel/frame of mind considering all the turmoil going on in their country right now ... hopefully all their familes/friends are safe etc. sometimes a soccer game does seem "minimal" when you compare it to stuff like that ... elaine ps- check the US-T&T thread in the US forum for pics from that game
Re: [R] Day 1 From CONCACAF.com: Mexico, USA open 2004 CONCACAF Women Pre-Olympic Tournament with convincing victories
I wonder what Dominguez did in extra time to merit a caution? That really could affect the team if she gets another in the USA game, as the Tricoloras would probably have very little chance against Canada without her...
canada-jamaica for those interested, i'll be doing a live PBP over at gobigred during the game (kick off 7pmET) http://www.gobigred.ca/forum/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/topic/2/54.html elaine
canada-jamaica half time score: can 2- jam 0 canada lots of chances but not getting the final ball in and/or finishing ... very lack luster IMHO. latham scored first goal and hooper scored off PK elaine
can-jam final final: canada 6 - jamaica 0 goals: sinclair (3), latham, hooper (pk) and moscato just a thought ... but all 3 games thus far in costa rica has had a hat trick from one player ... perez for mexico, boxx for usa and sincy now for canada ... elaine
Christine Sinclair by far the best player in the game. I think Tancredi will be ok, just what's needed in defense. Disapointed with Hermus, she should stay away from defending. Karina, her usual fumbles, not my choice por keeper.
costa rica- panama the other game from tonight: costa rica 6 - panama 1 CR goals: megan chaves (2), ana gabriela campos, monica salazar, cindy rodriguez and shirley cruz. not sure of pan goal panama got 5 yellows the whole game. elaine

Mexico 8 - Trinidad & Tobago 1 US 8 - Haiti 0 So US still has the goal differential lead and that means Mexico would have to win to take 1st in the group.
looks like Mexican women have improved dramaticaly since friendly against Canada prior to WC2003, watch out Canada and US , they might steal one of the spots.
Here is a paragraph that was towards the US Soccer article on the US-Haiti game: "Mexico's big win over a drained T&T team featured three goals from star Maribel Dominguez, two from Patricia Perez and one each from Juana Lopez, Iris Mora and Alma Martinzez. All of Mexico's goals were stylish and well taken. T&T got some solace from a 41st minute penalty kick by Tasha St. Louis."
canada-panama the canada-panama game is going on right now, but no clue what the score is as the CSA scoreboard is still stuck on the jamaica game ... it should be over in 30 mins ... the game will air on tv @ 4pm and i will be doing a PBP of the game over at gobigred.ca for those interested in the canada-panama game. right here: http://www.gobigred.ca/forum/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/topic/2/56.html elaine
halftime: canada 3 - pamama 0 goals from: latham, jamani and neil panama came out gunning but lost steam 15 mins in ... franco their keeper has a right shoulder injury, and i hope she will be ok, cause they need her to stay in. elaine
