The very best and worst of the 2011 FIFA Womens World Cup

With a 2011 FIFA Womens World Cup coming to a tighten this Sunday, we suspicion wed take a demeanour behind during a little of a highlights as good as lowlights of a final 3 weeks of action.

The misfortune dive in a history of sports-Erika (Brazil)

23-year aged Brazilian defender Erika didnt attraction herself to fans when she pulled this stunt late in a Brazil-USA game. After being carried off upon a stretcher, Erika ran onto a field moments later. Thankfully, a arbitrate removed her conduct from her ass (after a shenanigans progressing in a game) as good as gave her a yellow card. In a end, it wouldnt have a difference as Brazil mislaid in chastisement kicks. Karma? Karma.

Hottest moment-Josefine Oqvist (Sweden) undressing

Forward Josefine Oqvist of Sweden did her many appropriate Brandi Chastain sense when she traded jerseys with a air blower after a win contra North Korea. The shave is done which many improved because Oqvist is pretty hot as she surfaced a list of sexiest players during this years World Cup.

Worst forgive for a loss-North Korea

There have been man! y curren t excuses as to why a group could remove a game. Injuries, fatigue, perhaps even a extraordinary call from a bad referee. But regulating a we got struck by lightning forgive is pretty damn creative. Hopefully a continue Gods have been kinder to a friends from North Korea subsequent time.

When we stayed in Pyongyang during training a players were hit by lightning, as good as some-more than five of them were hospitalised, pronounced manager Kim.
Some stayed in sanatorium as good as afterwards came to Germany after than a rest of us. The goalkeeper as good as a 4 defenders were many affected, as good as a little midfielders as well. The physicians pronounced a players were not capable of participating in a tournament.
But World Cup football is a many important as good as significant event for a footballer, so they dont wish to consider about anything yet football.
The actuality which they played could be called abnormal, a outcome of really strong will.

Strangely, this nugget of information was usually suggested AFTER a loss. Personally, we consider Kim Jong-Il is still butt-hurt after which total Team America thing.

Prettiest idea of a tourney-Erika (Brazil)

Brazils Erika removed herself off a turf prolonged enough to produce this fancy juggling idea progressing in a tournament.

Most dramatic goal-Abby Wambach (USA)

Abby Wambachs header opposite Brazil not usually came in a final minute of extra time, yet it came in a compare where a U.S. felt they were dealt a bad hand. To have it even some-more dramatic, a U.S. had been personification with 10 players from a 65th minute on.

The many appropriate Koman Coulibaly impression-Jacqui Melksham (Australia)

You recollect Koman Coulibaly right? Hes a 2010 World Cup arbitra! te which disallowed a idea in a U.S.-Slovenia diversion upon a mysterious foul. A foul he could not explain after after a match. He was summarily excused from his arbitrate duties after a first round.

Anyways, Jacqui Melksham of Australia attempted to one-up Coulibaly with this dreadful call upon a chastisement kick in a U.S.-Brazil game.

The misfortune air blower moment-man from Equatorial Guinea

Did this male have income upon a game? If so, betting upon your home group is generally frowned upon (especially if we wish to have money). But if he in truth yet which his home country of Equatorial Guinea would advance, good then, my hats off to we sir. You in truth have a faith of a grained mustard seed (yes, thats a Biblical reference).

Biggest upset-Japan over Germany

Japan came in to a World Cup ranked #4 in a world. Naturally, a expectations for them were fairly high as good as getting out of group fool around was an absolute necessity. But nobody could have predicted their win over heavy favorites Germany in a quarterfinals, generally upon their home soil. Heres video of Karina Maruyamas idea opposite a single of a many appropriate keepers in a world, Nadine Angerer.

By a way, Japan has NEVER defeated a United States in womens soccer (0-22-3). So needless to say, should they pull off a win Sunday, it will succeed this as a biggest dissapoint of all-time.

The misfortune Hope Solo matrimony proposal

Social media sites were inundated with Hope Solo matrimony proposals from around a creation after her opening in a late stages of a tournament. There were Facebook groups, Twitter hashtags, as good as even genuine offers of courtship.

Hope Solo is a pleasing lady as good as a smashing athlete, Pfister told Yahoo! Sports. She shows which we can be feminine as good as athletic as good as a many appropriate in your chosen sport. we saw during a final diversion which a air blower had written a ensign which proposed matrimony so we am going to do a same, solely which mine will be bigger as good as better.

I am not necessarily awaiting a positive response yet it is a genuine offer, added Pfister, who claims to have homes in five different countries. we just wish to uncover my high regard for her category as a person as good as capability as a footballer.

Of a dozens of cinema weve seen though, this male pictured right, takes a cake for many unfortunate as good as indeed, a many Hope-less.

The misfortune choreographed idea celebrations-Sweden

Sweden actually attempted to pull this off a handful of times, yet not everyone longed for to cooperate. Thus, a outcome was 3 or 4 players trying to choreograph moves, whilst their teammates (and opponents) laughed upon a sidelines. It got so bad which forward Josefine Oqvist ran away from them after she scored opposite Japan. Ouch!
