It's very positive for us and for women's football in our country," Colombia's Leicy Santos told reporters. "People come to me and say that it's a party in our matches that you can't see anywhere else. Morocco may be their easiest opponents on paper but Colombia coach Nelson Abadia warned his squad to exercise caution with five players at risk of suspension and missing their next game if they are booked. Colombia also received criticism for their physicality against Germany but Santos said that has only encouraged them to reinforce their playing style. "They don't press very often but... Colin is a fantastic coach and he might surprise us," Germany coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg said.

"It means a lot to us because as soon as Marina is in training and able to perform properly, that's fantastic value for our team," Voss-Tecklenburg told reporters. Voss-Tecklenburg said she was looking forward to pitting her tactical wits against South Korea's English coach Colin Bell, who has coached three women's club teams in Germany. "They play three completely different systems so it will be interesting to see how they approach this match. "I didn't need to be the clown for them and try and cheer them up," she said. "We want to enjoy the next World Cup match.

Since the first edition in 1991, the hosts have always qualified for the knockout stages and New Zealand will advance if they win. Qualification will also mark the first time in six attempts they have reached the knockouts. But with three points separating table toppers Switzerland and bottom side Norway, all four teams have a shot at qualifying for the last 16. We want to basically be in that mindset where it doesn't matter who's standing there on the actual pitch," she said. She was a bit stressed as well, because she was playing in her first World Cup," Abadia said.

MELBOURNE, July 24 (Reuters) - Talismanic captain Alexandra Popp scored a brace as Germany launched their bid for a third Women's World Cup title with a 6-0 demolition of debutants Morocco on Monday. I look forward to the next match, but today we want to be happy with what we did today. "As it stands we came across a team which was superior to our own -- David and Goliath," said Morocco coach Reynald Pedros. Whirling around in the box, Popp scored again in the 39th minute, Buehl's corner pinging off the back of her head. Lea Schueller completed the rout a minute before stoppage time, smashing in the sixth goal after team mate Lena Lattwein's attempt careened off the keeper.

AUCKLAND, July 24 (Reuters) - Former champions Germany and fellow powerhouses Brazil will kick off their Women's World Cup title challenges on Monday, while newcomers Morocco will make history by becoming the first Arab side to compete in the tournament. Second-ranked Germany won consecutive World Cups in 2003 and 2007 but their last major triumph, excluding an Olympic gold in 2016, was a decade ago when they won an eighth European Championship. "Women's football teams have come closer than ever," Voss-Tecklenburg said before Germany face Morocco in Group H in Melbourne. Veteran forward Marta, Brazil's record scorer with 115 goals, will begin her sixth and final World Cup with the Group F opener against debutants Panama in Adelaide. Italy, quarter-finalists in 2019, will begin their Group G campaign against Argentina, who have never won a World Cup match in their three tournament appearances so far.
