There has been massive improvements in women's football as it is evident in this ongoing FIFA Women's World Cup 2023.
Previously, one thing that has been lacking in women's football was the defence and most especially, goalkeeping department.
For instance, in 2019, serial winners USA thrashed then-debutant Thailand 13-0. Alex Morgan scored 5 or so. Crazy! Last night, USA beat debutant Vietnam by only 3 nil. Only? Yes. If this was years ago, it would have been double figure.
Infact, Alex Morgan had a penalty saved from the Vietnamese goal keeper. So far, from 9+ penalties given in this edition, 3 have been saved. Two of those missed by Alex Morgan and Sinclair of Canada- Two of most decorated female footballers in history.
There's improvement, women's football is growing 👏
