    Impressed that USSF has sent the team for a trip to Eastern Europe well before the U-17 WC.

    According to Morgan Andrews' tweet, they beat FV Viktoria, the Hungarian Women’s First Division champion.

    @MorganEAndrews: won 8-0 #somuchfun #USA

    They will play the Austrian First Division champion Luv Graz on July 25, Slovenian champion ZNK Pomurje on July 27 and finish with a game against the full Slovenian Women’s National Team on July 29.

    The WC starts Sept. 22nd in Azerbaijan.

    Slovenia's ranked 58th in the world. Pretty good for the U-17s. 4-0 against "pro" competition.

    US Soccer finally caught up with the tour:

    http://www.ussoccer.com/News/U-17-W...ia-WNT-to-Complete-Eastern-European-Tour.aspx

    FC Viktoria 0-8 US U-17 WNT

    Luv Graz 1-2 US U-17 WNT

    ZNK Pomurje 1-4 US U-17 WNT

    Slovenia WNT 1-2 US U-17 WNT

    They did this without their star #1 GK, Jane Campbell, who picked up an injury before the tour. On a side note, there are ***4*** girls with the first name "Morgan" on this team.

    Yes, US Soccer finally posted an item about the U-17 trip in Eastern Europe. I think the put it up late Sunday, 7/29, or early
    Monday, 7/30. Curiously it is dated 7/27 in two places but describes the match played on 7/29 and also erroneously dates the 7/27 ZNK Pomarje game as being played on 7/23.

    I do not know if you can trust the rest of the write.
