Miscellaneous
With all the record-breaking attendances at domestic league games in Italy, Spain and England, over 1.7 million people expected to fill stadiums all over France, and FIFA forecasting the World Cup viewership around the world to hit the billion mark, 2019 will definitely be remembered as a major turning point for women's soccer around the globe. Established clubs in Europe and other regions investing more heavily in women's soccer - some of them putting together their first ever female sides - and brands tapping into a commercially young and growing market gives us the feeling that women's soccer is generally becoming more mainstream. In this episode, Leisa joins us to discuss the pivotal moment that is the World Cup and we talk about the group stages, best games so far, players who have impressed, as well as predictions and which team will be up there to fight for the ultimate trophy. Stay tuned for part II - we'll be discussing important topics such as the enormous inequalities between men & women's soccer as well as the discrimination of women within men's soccer.
