ponytail'd defender is kadeisha buchanan, already a world cup hero and it seems a damned good centre-back to boot
if the opening game ends up being 0-0 it's not exactly going to do wonders to hold a homeland audience which I imagine is made up of curious ice hockey aficionados

Reasonable damage limitation effort from Japan, after beig 4 down in fifteen minutes, but Jesus, those fifteen minutes...
Can't understand how a team with that sort of experience, full of world cup winners and olympic finalists can possibly freeze like that. Wouldn't be too surprised if it comes out that there was some Ronaldo-in-1998 type clusterfuck prior to the game.
― 2011’s flagrantly ceremonious rock-opera (Bananaman Begins), Monday, 6 July 2015 14:53 (nine years ago)
on sunday i went to a national women's soccer league game. it was really fun, plus much better quality than the majority of the world cup games that i caught on tv. Seattle Reign v Portland Thorns, so a derby game. world cup winner megan rapinoe plays for seattle, christine sinclair was up front for portland. $15 a ticket, so economical. a franchise record attendance of over 6000 were there. the crowd contrasted with most men's sporting events you'd go to in that it's mainly women, families, and there's lots of gay couples. nice change from the rowdy-hetero-bro vibe. 3-0 win for Seattle, i managed to miss the final 2 goals waiting to buy kettle-corn :/ but for sure would attend regularly if i lived in a city with a team, maybe they'll expand to vancouver one day.
