HibeeJibee Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Pretty extraordinary result even allowing for some of their overseas internationals being absent. Would you expect a womens national team, including a continental player of the year, to lose 7-0 to a male U15s club side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerberus Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The woman would probably win easily at keeping a tidy hoose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMC13 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Minter for Women's football, I've always said women footballers only get coverage because they're women. Equality would be bad for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakamura Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 It's not surprising at all, just biology, boys post-puberty are just too fast and powerful. 15 year old isn't a kid, these guys trained for years, they are far ahead physically compared to women. US women is the best national team in the world by far, and they also lost to a Los Angeles U15 boys club (I don't remember the result, but I think it was closer). They also lost to an U17 US national team 1-8 I think. The reason why women teams play 15-17 year olds is because it's a tough competition, I'm sure coaches fully expect them to lose. But you get to play a physically superior competition without having to fly to another continent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Pretty extraordinary result even allowing for some of their overseas internationals being absent. Would you expect a womens national team, including a continental player of the year, to lose 7-0 to a male U15s club side? I'd expect them to lose 9 times out of 10, and the majority of those times I'd expect them to lose heavily. As another poster pointed out, the physical differences give a massive advantage to the males team. For the most part, on a player for player basis you would expect the male side to be stronger, faster and taller. It would take utterly exceptional technical ability to overcome that.
