And their coach is the ex Matildas coach, Alen Stajcic, who quit the Matildas in controversial circumstances.
Funny old game. NZ had targeted the Philippines game as the best chance of a result and expected to be thrashed by Norway. So they have the 3 points they hoped to have after 2 games but the overwhelming feeling is gutted not to be on more. Going to be tight for who goes through from this group now.
Think Japan might go far even though they brought such a young squad.
Silky smooth on the ball and great technical abilities

I reckon they'll win it
You get odds of 15 on Norway losing to Philippines - seems like a good bet.
I like the look of 0-0 also at 15.00. It'll be 6-5 or something now I've said that 😆
McCabe scored straight from the corner. Ireland great so far.
Qwiss Shame to concede right on HT
Clrnc it really was. Lucky deflection against the run of play but the Irish team just couldn't deal with Canada in the second half. McCabe is head and shoulders above the rest and it was too much to ask her to do it all alone. Its a pity we couldn't get the draw to at least keep it alive till the final game but unfortunately we just don't have the squad or the experience.
Ireland performed brilliantly, I'd be tremendously proud of that game. McCabe is a fucking legend, love her to death.
I'm at USA Vs Netherlands now.
Alex Morgan is so basic.
Coombs she's looked a bit donkey like in both games. The history of the Tottenham.
The Dutch looks good.
And I reckon if we do a best looking XI they will feature the most
Good game and good atmosphere. Dutch had the better of the first half and USA the second. 1-1 probably fair result.
Great finish from that angle but calamitous defending from Australia.
Horrendous defending from Australia time and time again
This really makes Aus vs Canada interesting
Officials giving them 11 minutes to try and rescue it.
Of course they are going to bloody do it aren't they?
What a fucking result for Nigeria! Leaves Australia in a bit of trouble now needing to beat higher ranked Canada to go through. Draw only enough if Ireland beat Nigeria by 2 or more. The two hosts both on the wrong end of upsets in this round of games.
