Canada and the United States both have something to prove in this Women’s World Cup.
Canada faces a different sort of pressure: their so-far-unrealized expectations on the World Cup stage.
Philippines vs. Switzerland The Philippines, in its first Women’s World Cup, features a roster with 18 American-born players.
It will face Switzerland, a team with only one previous Women’s World Cup appearance, in 2015.
Spain vs. Costa Rica Spain, whose roster contains several players from the powerhouse European club Barcelona, has lost only once in the last year.
