    Unfortunately people talk less about women's football soccer, even if I saw already some good matches.
    The 2019 women's world cup is held in France from 7 June until 7 July with 24 teams.

    So far the highest result was United States - Thailand 13 - 0.

    They play today (against Jamaica) and they need at least (to be certain) a drawn to go to the round of 16 [they'll play tomorrow at 05:00 your time]

    Same here, we play Netherlands tomorrow.

    I don't think we have a catchy name like that for our team, though - 'Beavers' ? We'd never get away with it. :)

    I hope you didn't pay for the 'catchiness' part of that. :) Actually, Vancouver's hockey team is called that - and they ikely did pay for it !

    I did look it up and found
    Canuck

    Canuck is een bijnaam voor een Canadees die vooral wordt gebruikt door Canadezen zelf om hun nationaliteit te benadrukken.

    Het kan tevens verwijzen naar:

    Canucks, bijnaam van nationale sportploegen zoals het rugbyteam en het voetbalelftal.
    Vancouver Canucks, een ijshockeyteam uit Vancouver, Canada

    Canuck

    Canuck is a nickname for a Canadian who is mainly used by Canadians themselves to emphasize their nationality.

    It can also refer to:

    Canucks, nickname for national sports teams such as the rugby team and the football team.
    Vancouver Canucks, an ice hockey team from Vancouver, Canada    ​
