Match Report

For more information on the CAN-GER match, please visit the following fixture.

Canada put up a brave effort today, but ultimately could not climb the wall that the Germans put up at New Zealand 2008. Canada lost 1:3 to Germany in the quarter-final stage in Wellington, New Zealand, thus making an exit from the inaugural FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup.

Dzsenifer Marozsan scored twice for Germany while Lynn Mester scored once. Nkem Ezurike scored Canada's lone goal, her second in four matches.

Germany advances to the semi-final stage to be played 13 November against either USA or Korea Republic. The match will be played at QEII Park in Christchurch. Germany's opponent, however, must first be decided on 9 November at Waikato Stadium in Hamilton.

In the other quarter-final match on 8 November, Korea DPR won 4:0 over Denmark. Myong Hwa Jon scored two goals before Un Ae Ri and Un Ju Kim added singles. Korea DPR will face either England or Japan in a 13 November semi-final. The England-Japan quarter-final match precedes the USA-Korea Republic match on 9 November at Waikato Stadium.

The FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup New Zealand 2008 featured 16 teams, originally divided into four groups. Canada was one of eight teams that advanced to the quarter-final stage. Following the quarter-final stage is the semi-final stage (13 November) and final (16 November). The final kicks off at 16.00 (local time) in Auckland, which back in Canada translates to 23.00 ET / 20.00 PT on 15 November.
