If the French team was feeling any pressure ahead of the opening game in Paris, I would to hate to play them when they settle in. They were dominant from start to finish and gave the tournament exactly what it needed – a big win and great performance from the host nation. Having the host nation playing with confidence and winning helps the entire tournament. All of the media takes notice, there is a positive vibe across the country, and that energy builds as the tournament progresses.
Below are the highlights and goals of the opening game. What an outstanding start to the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup!
