several teams big in boys' football failed at the group stage, apart from brazil. also argentina, germany, italy, portugal.
I'd say Japan must be one if the favourites now. Just beat Norway, despite not having tall midfielders
Their top goalscorer has now netted 5 times too. She's beginning to look like a 'shoe-in' for the Golden Sling-Back award...
Well that was an exciting climax to the Sweden game. Scraped past USA on pens. The wife and daughter are going crazy. Japan next won't be easy!
I had to laugh at the sight of England players taking a knee while the Nigerian players just stood there
