Great Britain head into their quarter-final against Canada on a massive high after defeating Brazil in their final group game at Wembley Stadium in front of 70,584.

 

Team GB are having a dream London 2012 Olympic women's football tournament, so far they are undefeated and they have looked comfortable in all of their wins. The squad are experiencing huge support and they are the only team yet to concede a goal! 

 

Canada's progression to the quarter-finals was not so comfortable, they only just made the final eight by qualifying as one of the best third place teams. 

 

Canada's Melissa Tancredi is the current London 2012 Olympic top goalscorer with 4 goals, but Great Britain's Stephanie Houghton is close behind in 3rd place with 3 goals.

At least they wrote about it.  What GB needs is to persuade Jess to take up soccer as a second career! (It is worth checking out her prize-ceremony last night.)

Yeah lol, I read it and thought, I'm sure that was the other way round, it makes you doubt your own eyes! Thanks I will take a look at them, how about the Telegraph I hear their sports writers are good?
