Two days ago, I watched highlights of the America's wining match on Brazil at quarter-final, for the first time of this year's women's world cup, while I was in a hotel room.
Then, I saw the matching news for semi-final between the U.S. and France, and, Sweden and Japan.
According to historical strength, I guessed the United States and Sweden will meet in the final as I have never seen the playing style and power of Japanese side before, this year.
Today, I had chances to watch part of both semi-final matches. My blind-guess was only correct for the team of the United States, but not for Sweden. From ball-position to strength, Japanese women's team is a standard one. If Japanese team play by this way, the team of the United States will have a hard time on Sunday to hold the world cup. However, if the team of Japanese make any kind of less quality than today, even for a little bit by any mean or any reason or by fortune, the cup of planet for women's soccer in 2011 will be for truly giant Americans.
Whatever it is, with both of traditional strength and its true quality, I am very happy for the success of women's team of the United States. At the same time, I have truly appreciation for the success of Japanese team for many reasons with my passion while I put national team of Japan's 4th championship in Asia's cup as the cover story of my first monthly issue - The Arakan International.
I am waiting for the final results of Women's World Cup and Copa America to fondly express in coming 7th issue of the AI.
Special Congratulations National Women's Teams of Japan and The United States!!
