Strange football world in the Women’s Nations League: The Scots miss their chance at the Olympic Games because they lose too little in the neighboring match with England.
The 0:6 against the European champions, as crazy as it sounds, is not enough – because in the shooting competition, the Netherlands takes first place in the Nations League Group A1 with a 4:0 victory over Belgium due to the goal difference over the Lionesses, who is one goal better.
The crazy thing: if England had qualified for the Summer Games, the team would have been allowed to compete there as a team for Great Britain – with players from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland as well. Therefore, the Scots were doomed to lose on the last day of the match.
Alex Greenwood (13th), Lauren James (38th/39th), Beth Mead (45th+1), Fran Kirby (50th) and Lucy Bronze (90th+3) score for the guests at Hampden Park in Glasgow. But the Netherlands has the better goal for itself. Damaris Egurrola scored twice in stoppage time (90+1/90+5) to score the final score, putting her side past England.
In addition to the Netherlands, France, Germany and Spain have also qualified for the final tournament in February. The two best teams – not including host country France – will play at the Olympic Games in Paris in the summer of 2024. (AFP/cmü)
