Group F seems to have taken the crowds with them when they left Moncton.



Winnipeg crowd weak as expected, once the US left for Vancouver.

Goal of the tournament by Ivory Coast just now. You'll see that EVERYWHERE.

I can think of only a few better goals I've ever seen in women's football.

Almost certain that the 3rd placed teams from Group B and Group E will not progress to the Round of 16. A bunch of stuff needs to happen in Group E to see a survivor, Thailand needs Sweden to not get 1 point or Nigeria to not get 3 points. I think Sweden easily gets a point against Australia

And certain Japan beats Ecuador and USA beats Nigeria so I'll put them in.

So here is the bracket, it is CRUCIAL that Canada wins the group tonight.

2nd A
2nd C

USA
3rd F

Germany
3rd D

1st F
2nd E

------------

Brazil
2nd D

Japan
3rd A

Norway
2nd F

1st A

3rd C

Crucial is an understatement. Finishing 2nd is a likely Switzerland draw and with 3rd would be Japan, I can say I would likely bet against Canada in both of those two games.

What time do we play and in what stadium?

Also, Acey, is Canada's attendance being looked at as a failure or this par for the course for Women's world cup?

Starting now in Montreal on CTV.

It will be the highest attended Cup by quite a margin. Mind you, it's only the 7th WWC that has been played.

Martens, van de Donk and Melis will do damage if they're not contained immediately and we've already seen a glimpse of this. Keeping the ball in the Dutch half is literally the only remedy for these power forwards.

The first 10 minutes they looked much better, slowing up a bit now.

An observation, it's bugging me that the commentator is pronouncing the name Spitse as Spit-suh. We have friends with that name and they say Spitz.

I believe Spits-uh would be correct in Dutch. Hoping for a draw so both teams can advance.
Edit: New Zealand scores.

It will be interesting to see the TV ratings for this game when you consider it's on the same night as game 6 of the Cup finals.
