. 2007 World Cup play-off defeat still hurts the French
. The selection dilemmas Hope Powell, whiter and Yankey
No boring people who make promises young hotheads, no business babbling talk with selfishness, but Hilton Hotel Düsseldorf, where the armies of England and France are alive, it becomes a version of the learner's home Sunday night. Both parties have left your last job - a World Cup quarter-final at the BayArena Leverkusen. The losers go back to packing for home, while the winners are established in a few days and a semi-final on the road at Mönchengladbach. Pressure and the potential for pain and sugar makes his conference room Mr. shade.
agreements close the sides of detainees is nothing new in this tournament - when hope Powell team arrived at your hotel in Dresden who shared their home with three squadrons of World Cup On the other hand. This is a great merit of competition that teams were happily blended. Like Germany and France fought for their slots in the quarterfinals, England and Japan, players are not three hours after the final whistle of his party in Augsburg, seen together in the lobby the hotel, waiting for their opponents to be revealed.
England could have been forgiven to encourage the escape of a fight with the defending champions and host nation, who hammered 6-2 in the final of Euro 2009, but history weighs heavily on this device too. Like four years ago in China, England and Powell, standing on the threshold of an unprecedented feat - England have never been in a World Cup semi-final. In the 2007 World Cup, they were beaten 3-0 in the American quarter-final stage and that is the evolutionary rather than revolutionary Powell's squad in England, many players are about to avenge his Pain. Ten of the 13 that played against the United States are on the computer yet. If that was not enough to jog memories, even the referee Jenny Palmqvist of Sweden, is the same.
"They are a very good technical team and difficult to play against, and after the 2007 World Cup, they want revenge," said midfielder Fara Williams, who was suspended for playoff quarterfinal against the United States in 2007 and although it is likely to return, instead of Anita Asante against France. "But we know what is above all and even going to be tough opponents We are more than capable to get the result we want. "
Powell dilemmas selection in several areas. Captain, Faye White, are supported in Japan, but her replacement, Sophie Bradley, has emerged as the party held their first tournament clean sheet. Rachel Yankey was dropped against New Zealand, but emerged from the bench to score an impressive, calming nervous second Augsburg. Six players compete for four places of the attack. Powell, however, has produced the right answers to screening questions to date, however, against New Zealand, has found the right solution for the half.
crucial to the progress of England will be careful planning and preparation of Powell. "It was massive in other games," Bradley said. "We really had no knowledge of the other team, which is great for us. You know what to expect when you go there, even if they can change here and there, but no doubt that the game plans "I had been brilliant so far."
Powell counterpart, Bruno Bini, when asked what he considered the biggest threat to England, simply lists all the numbers from 1 to 21, although Ellen White in particular, has experienced strong and growing one of five England goals that day came from a different source. Powell Side careful midfielder installer Necib Louisa, a contingent of France Lyon, while Marie-Laure Delie and Thiney Gaëtane each scored two goals in three games. Bini has concerns on the back, however, where the red card against Germany refused Bérangère Sapowicz France coach service number 1 goalie.
