FIFA 2023 womens world cup

but even under Herdman they never really scored that much. Worse now but…

The Canadian Womens team is underfunded
Zero friendlies scheduled for the team to gel due to underfunding by soccer Canada
The Mens team faced the same dilema, but they get more from Soccer Canada

If Christine Sinclair retires (Shes 40)
and as Captain of the Olympic Gold medal Womens Soccer Team
I would like to see her become head of Soccer Canada

You hit the nail on the head. Key here is a lack of funding in sports in general.

They are still powering through considering there’s no domestic league for women.

It’s no different for the Summer Olympics for Canada as well.

I think Sinclair will stick around until the Olympics and then call it a career.

If she steps aside now that will be okay as well as she’s done so much to promote the game in Canada.

I agree that increased funding for women’s sports especially is in need, more equity. That being said, there are more pressing issues than sports with respect to what Canada should be spending on ie:

USA got horseshoes. So close to losing last night. too bad

You mean too bad for Canada? at least the US got through to the next round

no. I am not fan of USA, Germany, France or England

Chearing for Spain, Brazil if they make it, Netherlands, Australia, Italy if they make it, and Columbia if they make it

well, lost Italy and Brazil. Hopeful that Columbia will not be a third strike tonight

Columbia in. Germany out. Far out

so now I only got Spain, Netherlands, Columbia, and Australia left of my original choices.

Also be cheering for Japan, Sweden, Nigeria, and Morocco.

Still think so :frowning:

I had a feeling. sigh :frowning:

I made this summary (by ranking) prior to start of Round of 16…

Should be a good game tomorrow morning, the USA and Sweden. Sweden is undefeated and looks pretty good.

USA/Sweden about to go to penalty kicks in a scoreless game

Eureka. Sweden wins in sudden death shootout.

Fitting only for this one game that I had some music on during the shootout. The song playing as Sweden were winning was We are the Champions.

May as well have played “Life is a Carnival”.

I didn’t see the game and don’t have a horse in the race, but still don’t see how such an important game can be decided by a skills contest. We still don’t know who the better team was.
