Despite the fact that Spain does not start among the favourites, Jorge Vilda’s team wants to close the gap with the great teams such as USA o England.
Spain: rebirth or die
The Spanish team arrives at the event in full resurgence. After the internal disputes that have made headlines for more than a year and despite the initial division of the dressing room, the team led by Jorge Vilda arrives at the World Cup with options of everything. Framed in an extremely affordable group (Costa Rica, Zambia and Japan), anything short of a nine out of nine points in the group stage will be surprising.
With Alexia already recovered from her left knee cruciate ligament injury, Spain wants to show that once and for all they have thrown off their complexes and can handle an international tournament with guarantees. With the painful precedents of the European Championship last summer, where Vilda’s team was eliminated in the quarterfinals with a lousy imageThe time has come to make amends. For Spain, this World Cup is reborn or die.

Big names like Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan they face what will be their last World Cup and, with them, the great promises of American soccer make their way with a firm step. Waiting to see how they withstand the pressure of a date of this caliber, players like Sophia Smith o Trinity Rodman They are called to mark an era in the selection.
England: Contender with Crown
The brand new Eurocup champion last summer arrives in Australia and New Zealand as a favourite. After a superb role in the continental tournament and at home with their fans present, England presents a bid to lift their first World Cup. With the best coach in the world on the bench, Sarina Weigman, the English squander talent on the green. with the azulgrana Lucy Bronze as leader, despite not wearing the captain’s armband, the Anglo-Saxon team will play the World Cup without some of its great stars such as Beth Mead o Leah Williamson, still on leave due to injuries to the cruciate ligament in his knee. Despite her notable absences, England is one of the clear favourites.
Historical and aspiring: France, Germany and Norway
Beyond the two great favourites, there are different national teams that have made merits to enter the pools. France is one of them. After a process of internal remodeling after the revolution of the soccer players, Herve Renard, the new coach, is still building a winning team. With consecrated stars as Wendie Renard In the team, the French want to demonstrate in Australia and New Zealand that when the estates listen to the soccer players and make the necessary changes for real professionalization to take place, the results come. France tops group F where they are also Jamaica, Brazil and Panama.
Germany also continues to be present on the international scene as one of the historical teams to take into account. those of Martina Voss-Tecklenburg I want to re-impose German dominance in Europe after a few years in which no European team has managed to steal the throne from the United States. With Alexandra Popplethal in attack, wearing the captain’s armband, the Germans lead group H where they will face Morocco, Colombia and the Republic of Korea.
Another of the teams that must be taken into account for the event are Norway, which has the return of the great Ada Hegerberg and with the indisputable talent of Caroline Graham Hansen.
