Germany vs Norway semi final match of Women’s world cup 2007 will be held at the Tianjin Olympic Centre Stadium on 26 September 2007. Women’s world cup 2007 is now near to its end. Just two semi final matches, third place playoff and final match are yet to be held. Germany is defending champion and they are going smoothly to defend their title. Norway was the former champion and they are also favorite in the tournament. So, I think, the first semi final between Germany vs Norway is expected to be very competitive.
Both Germany and Norway are two big teams in women’s football. It is true that Norway has lesser impact in men’s football but in women’s football, Norway is always a big name for their stylish football showcase. Norway participated in women’s world cup from the first tournament. Norway was the finalist of the first Women’s world cup in 1991 as they lost to USA by 2-1 in the final. However, they did not have to wait long for the world cup title as Norway won their first and till only world cup title in 1995 Women’s world cup.
Norway could not enter into the semi final round in 2003 Women’s world cup for the first time. They lost to the eventual finalist USA in quarter final. So, this time Norway is determined to win their second world cup title in China. Norway’s performance in this world cup is impressive so far. They got into the quarter final as the group champion. IN group stage, they defeated Canada by 2-1 in their first match. Then in the second match, they made a draw against Australia. In the last match, Norway got a superb win over Ghana by 7-2. In quarter final, they met China. Norway defeated China by 1-0 and got into the semi final of Women’s world cup 2007.
Germany is one of the best football playing countries in women’s football. In 2003, they won the world cup title for the first time. So, Germany will try their best to defend their title. Germany started this tournament excellently. In the first match, they defeated Argentina by 11-0 which has been a new record in women’s world cup as the highest margin of victory. However, in the second match Germany showed an ordinary performance against England as they come up with a goal less draw. Germany then defeated Japan in the last match of the group stage.
Germany faced North Korea in quarter final. They defeated North Korea by 3-0 and entered into the semi final round of Women’s world cup 2007. I think, Germany got back the rhythm and they look impressive at this moment. However, Norway will throw a strong challenge to Germany.
Now, the question is that who will win the match. It is a big question and only time can give the best answer of this question. As both teams are strong and play same level of football, it is not so easy to make any prediction regarding the result of the. Germany has some inform players including Birgit Prinz, Renate Lingor etc. Birgit Prinz was the star of the last world cup and she is continuing her impressive performance in this world cup as well. Birgit Prinz has already scored four goals in this tournament. Norway also has some impressive players who have the ability to serve Norway with a match winning performance. Ragnhild Gulbrandsen is the highest goal scorer of this tournament jointly with Brazilian striker Marta. Ragnhild Gulbrandsen scored five goals yet and she has to play a big part against Germany in the semi final match. Cathrine Paaske Sorensen is also in her good form and she has the ability to show impressive performance leading Norway to the final. Isabell Herlovsen and Ane Stangeland Horpestad are also in good form. So, Norway will also have good chance to win the match and play their third world cup final. Germany vs Norway match is now the main attraction to their fans.
I think, Germany vs Norway match will have huge excitement and fans will enjoy the fullest of it. Both teams have one world cup title each. So, both teams are now just two matches away from their second world cup title. Fans will be happy to see their players winning the semi final match and get in to the final of Women’s world cup 2007. I hope that Germany vs Norway match will be competitive and full of excitement so that football fans can get the taste of a big match. I think, you also hope the same.
