I don't wanna have a go at individual players of such an age but surely the alarm bells should be ringing at this stage for NZ - this year at age group world cups we have been outplayed by Mexico, Colombia, Chile and now Nigeria. All teams that are ranked well behind us in the womens rankings. I'd suggest it's a sign of things to come in the senior space as more and more nations start taking womens football more and more seriously.
It's even more frustrating when you realise these girls are being coached by the same guy, Leon Birnie, who helped the U17s to a famous 3rd place finish at the last world cup. This time around, they're not even going to get close to making it out of their own group.
