Ojoj PiaS, has much to work with. The Swedish combo passing game was deplorable and the game on the last third is poor. I Want to take away Nilla Fischer as central defender
and let her play on its regular place of the central midfielder. Nilla was directly involved in China's 0-1 goal.

Comment by vanjory on March 6, 2013 at 12:46 What happened to the chat window? Is it removed?
Comment by Women's Soccer United on February 22, 2013 at 16:39 Not sure @Ken, Wales are due to announce theirs on Monday so maybe Germany will do the same.
Is it only 12 days now, I can't wait lol! :-D
Comment by Ken Suzuki on February 22, 2013 at 11:29 The tournament will begin 12 days from now. When Germany's roster is announced? I believe there is due to report to tournament organizer. Maybe, the same players in the recent firendly against France are reused?
Comment by HSIEH TING KAI on February 20, 2013 at 19:21 Thanks Sebastian, very important the information!
Comment by Sebastian Kanty on February 20, 2013 at 18:38 @HSIEH - Very doubtful that you could get a spot in this tournament. I guess they would pick somebody "closer to home", and perhaps better ranked. But it is never completely wrong in asking. I guess you would have to contact the football/soccer federations of the Scandinavian countries (Sweden, Norway & Denmark) since it's these federations that started the Algarve with the help of the Portuguese federation. The Algarve was meant to give the Scandinavian countries match-practice during the winter-period, and I guess Portugal was the country the decided would hold it.
Comment by HSIEH TING KAI on February 14, 2013 at 7:52 We wonder how a team like us Chinese Taipei can be invited ....any credentials should we have or any who form this tournament can be communicated with?
We know we are nobody but we definitely deserve enough to compete in group C at least...
Asian women football is up in the air now and we are in the row
Comment by Kevin van Hooydonck on February 13, 2013 at 15:30 still no rosters of the teams?
Comment by Women's Soccer United on December 27, 2012 at 22:32 Thank you @Josh, we will add details of Group C above now :)
