8 Story of the tournament Story of the tournament Author: Betty Wong Group stage Just two days after the fi nal of the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa, women’s football moved into the world’s focus with less than 12 months to go until the biggest FIFA event in women’s football, the FIFA Women’s World Cup. The countdown started with the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Germany, a country where people are clearly very passionate about women’s football, and it will be followed by the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Trinidad & Tobago 2010 in September before the Women’s World Cup takes centre stage in Germany from 26 June to 17 July 2011. This U-20 tournament was part of the planning, preparation and testing stage, and the Germans proved once again what hospitable and friendly hosts they are. The four stadiums in the host cities of Augsburg, Bochum, Bielefeld and Dresden warmly welcomed the 16 participating teams and numerous fans of women’s football from all over the world. The wonderful crowds (a total of 395,295 spectators for the 32 matches) always created a cheerful atmosphere. The offi cial opening in Bochum was a great show. Some 300 local performers and a colourful programme of music, acrobatics, dance and football launched the tournament in spectacular fashion. Karla Kick – the Offi cial Mascot of the FIFA Women’s World Cup Germany 2011 – also made her debut at the opening match. She conveys some of the attributes of women’s football – passion, enjoyment and energy. The newcomers from Colombia, Costa Rica, Ghana and Sweden all performed very well. Two of them advanced to the second stage, with Sweden fi nishing fi rst in their group and Colombia second in theirs. Of the 16 qualifi ers, only Mexico, Sweden and Switzerland had not played in the fi rst-ever FIFA U-17 Women’s Wor ld Cup in New Zealand in 2008. Six of the 13 teams who played in 2008 proceeded to the knockout stage in 2010. A total of 126 players had benefi tted from the experience of playing in the U-17 Women’s World Cup, while 49 players had played in the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Chile in 2008. The 2010 edition illustrated the growth and development of the players. Group A had the biggest crowds cheering for the host team. Germany’s attacking prowess was clear for all to see as they scored 11 goals, six of which came from their impressive striker, Alexandra POPP (11), the adidas Golden Boot and adidas Golden Ball winner. Both France and Colombia were in the running to join the hosts in the knockout stage, and in an exciting fi nish to the group, Colombia sprang a surprise to climb above France thanks to their
etter goal difference. Costa Rica, although they did not win any points, were the only team to score twice against Germany. Group B produced its fair share of surprises. Sweden were able to storm into the last eight atop the table with their bold attacking play and inspired solo runs. Korea DPR, however, 2006 champions and runners-up in 2008, lost 3-2 to Sweden in their last group match due to an unfortunate own goal but still fi nished second in the group. Brazil have a tradition of reaching the quarter-fi nals at least, and they have even progressed to the semi-fi nals on three occasions. However, this time their talented players could not progress to the second stage. New Zealand fought very hard but left the tournament without any points despite scoring a goal in every match. Group C with England, runners-up at the UEFA European Women’s Under-19 Championship 2010, Asian champions Japan, Nigeria and Mexico proved to be a very competitive one. All four teams collected one point from their fi rst match. The physically strong Nigerians then won 2-1 against the organised and skilful Japanese, while Mexico edged out England 1-0 in their second match. In the end, Japan fi nished one point short of the quarters. In an exciting fi nish, Japan almost qualifi ed until the Mexicans scored a late equaliser against Nigeria to fi nish top of the group. Group D started with a clear sign of the development of African women’s football as Ghana took the lead against the USA, the 2008 champions, and held on until midway through the second half when the USA equalised to secure a 1-1 draw. Although they did not proceed to the next stage, the West Africans impressed with their fast on- and off-the-ball movements. USA kept a clean sheet in their last two group matches and fi nished as group winners. Korea Republic, with a solid reputation and led by the fi rst hat-trick scorer of this tournament, JI So Yun (10), the adidas Silver Boot and adidas Silver Ball winner, were an impressive team FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup Germany 2010 who kept the ball moving in an enjoyable style of play. Even though Switzerland improved with each game, they could not avoid fi nishing last in the group. Quarter-fi nals Korea DPR played defensively to cope with the technically and physically strong Germany, and the Koreans’ threat was limited to long-range shots. Germany, with their effi cient and direct passing, were the dominant force in this clash and fi nally won 2-0. Two tournament debutants with similar playing styles faced each other in the next quarter- 9
