Women's Super League
We started precisely with the Catalan club that played against Sevilla. El F.C. Barcelona couldn't get past a goalless draw in Seville, even so they outperform 8 points to Athletic Bilbao. The Basques did not miss the opportunity to cut points from the leader and won 0-2 al Collarense with goals by Erika Vázquez and Irune Mutua. After the team from Bilbao, a chasing quartet formed by Atlético Féminas, Vallecano Ray, Valencia and Levante, that if, when they spend on a transfer the same as two teams on making their squads, one by one they leave points and lose combat.
After the results that have occurred in the last days of this first round, the rest of the teams gather at the bottom of the table. Levante Las Planas ends bottom and with really negative feelings after losing 5-1 in Granada against a direct rival. The protagonist of the match was clearly Noelia Aybar "Rivi" who scored a brutal hat-trick to draw with the Catalan Sonia Bermúdez at 15 targets in the fight for the Pichichi.
This result and the victory of Transportes Alcaine over Espanyol make the differences between the teams at the bottom of the table minimal.. The tremendous left-footed shot by Orianica Velásquez from more than 30 meters at the Ciudad Deportiva Dani Jarque meant the 3rd consecutive victory for the Maño team.
Spanish selection
Coinciding with the end of the holiday trip, Ignacio Quereda wanted to hold a mini-concentration to play a friendly match in La Manga next 14 from January. In front will be the current European runner-up and executioner of Spain in the quarterfinals, the mighty norway. Three games and three defeats is the sad baggage of the Spanish team against the Nordics. Without a doubt, a very complicated game before receiving the next 13 February in Las Gaunas to Macedonia in the last match of the first round of the qualifying phase for the World Cup in Canada 2015.
Theoretically, The Balkans should not prevent the full victories of the Spanish team in Logroño. But nevertheless, Quereda's girls should not be trusted before traveling to Italy in April where the first place in Group II will predictably be at stake and therefore, direct qualification for the world cup.
Abby Wambach
To say goodbye to women's football until February, on this occasion the "Hanged", we have chosen Mary Abigail Wambach. After the recent presentation of Marta and Angerer, we wanted to complete the magic triangle with the American goalscorer. All three are the finalists in this 2013 Ballon d'Or, and next Monday in Zurich we will know who is crowned the best in the world. The American will comply 34 spring next 2 June and perhaps he will do it with his second Ballon d'Or under his arm. In 2012 she was already named best player of the year ahead of her compatriot Alex Morgan and Marta, and it is that that same year the United States hung the gold medal in the London Olympics.
He has always played for an American club, first he did it for the Washington Freedom (02/09) and since then defends the colors of the Western New York Flash. Maybe that's his only thorn, never having played in Europe. It can boast of a vast individual palmares where the Bronze Boot achieved in the Athens Olympic Games in 2004, where the United States also hung the gold and silver in the World Cup in China 2007 and Germany 2011, where he also won the Silver Ball.
last june, this area predator scored a poker to South Korea to break the record of the great Mia Hamm, with 158 goals with the american team. remember this name, because sooner or later surely it has a place in this section.
