Comments, predictions Zambia Women vs Japan Women: Three hard points
In theory, the Japanese Women's World Cup opening match is easy when the opponent is the first name to attend the Women's Zambia. Obviously, with the level of the top Asian team and the winner of the Women's World Cup in 2011 and the runner-up in 2015, 3 points belonged to the Japanese Women, which is the result that many fans predicted.
However, for many professional analysts, this will be a hard victory and a huge difference in the ratio because of the fact that the Japanese Women are in fluctuating form. In the last 8 friendly matches, the cherry blossom team had 5 losses and won 3 times.
Across the field, Zambian Women are not too familiar with the World Cup world because this is their first time attending the final round.
But not so fans are allowed to look down on the representative of Africa. Emphasizing that, Zambia Women entered the World Cup finals with excitement when they just defeated the world's 2nd ranked team Germany Women and drew Switzerland Women in 2 friendly matches before the tournament.
