No France...? I thought they would be in the Algarve after their non participation in the Cyprus Cup?

That was my initial thoughts but I think France will be competing in a couple of international friendlies instead. It's a shame because it would have been great to see them in Portugal as well

Ahh it's a shame that all group and placement matches are on the same day each ://

Yes the schedule sucks!

Yeah it's a shame that all the games are played on the same day. It was the same for the previous tournaments, if you look back at last year's schedule you can get an idea of the times between games (presuming they do it similar this year).

There are going to be some tough decisions for what games to go and watch!

Hey guys, is there an email where we could write to them to ask them to spread the games out a little bit so that we can at least watch 2 games in a day or something? Going by last year's schedule... the timing of the games were such that fans would only be able to catch one game, and then maybe the last 10 mins of another in any given day. Pretty much sucks.

I think we should write in about it. =) I would like to at least be able to catch 2 games in a day. It's a matter of just scheduling them a couple of of hours apart, really.

Anyone going should watch and support the Welsh girls! An improving side and hopefully they can qualify for Canada 2015.

This schedule has been on Women`s Soccerway for a month now .... if you keep checking there you may get the times and venues. I wonder if they are converting to `double-header` matches at the same venue as in a number of recent tournaments.

If anyone stumbles across the times and venues before our source, please share it in these comment walls and we will add to the table above.

I am really hoping the schedule will be organized a bit better this year. Seeing two games a day would be really nice! Especially if it could be the USA and Germany games ;)

In the Cyprus Women`s Cup, the `host` countries are actually England and Scotland (FA and SFA)..

I wonder if Algarve Cup is organised similarly , at least, to suit the participant FA`s ... not fans.

Hi everyone! This is my first post in the blog. I'm portuguese but i've never been in the Algarve Cup. I'm very convinced that this will be the year. As all of you i've been looking for the times because i want to see as many matches as i can get...
