A passionate Group F showdown is on the horizon, with France vowing to challenge an incredibly strong Brazilian team.
In the first round of group matches, France shook hands with Jamaica 0-0, which was somewhat regrettable. Although the team created many threats in the game, but failed to capitalize on the chances, coach Hanna may expect his players to be more accurate in grasping the chances on goal when facing Brazil.
Striker Dianne missed a couple of great scoring chances and I'm sure she'll be eager to prove her worth in this game. Aston Villa's Janessa Daley made a strong substitute appearance and I hope to see her get more action in tonight's thrilling clash with the South American champions.
The center back pairing of Lennart and Kaskalienu is quite solid and Lennart is a threat in set piece attacks. I believe that when the team needs a goal, they should try to get the ball to her feet.
The Brazilian team put in an impressive performance against Panama with a 4-0 win. Ellie was particularly impressive, with her three goals being of the highest quality. I also applaud her unselfish style of play, as she skillfully assisted Bilitis with a back-footed pass for the team's third goal, while she scored three solo goals herself.
Although Debina did not score a goal in the match, she will be a key player for the team. Mada came on as a substitute in the last 15 minutes of the game, her sixth Women's World Cup final week. I am sure she will be able to help and guide her young teammates to excel.
