Hear, hear.
There are ton's of people who write off women's football before giving it a chance. I just watched the Italy-Croatia Euro qualifier; two teams with immense talents but OMG the diving and embellishing, and this was not one of Italy's worst embellishing displays. However, you really saw how bad it was because the match was played behind closed doors so you could hear every time a player yelped in agony.
A woman keeper can kick the ball past the center line same as a male keeper. So the idea of them not being powerful is moot.
