Sarina Wiegman’s side underlined their title credentials by claiming a comprehensive 6-1 win against China on Wednesday.

“A different test again and in world football playing against different opposition is amazing so we’re all looking forward to it.”

Matches to watch. High scoring Europeans so far (England, France, Netherlands) versus what exactly about Africans? Low scoring? RSA scored 6 too. Mean defense? Only Nigeria conceded 2. Morocco conceded 6. RSA canceled their goals rush (conceded 6). Hopefully, African put her colonial conquerors to the sword on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
I still have a dream. Nigeria Morocco rematch in the semi finals. Nothing is certain in women’s football again.
