Published on: Jun 13, 2019 11:56 am IST|Updated on: Jun 14, 2019 12:04 am IST
Stats and facts:
- South Africa are making their first appearance in a FIFA Women’s World Cup.
- China have never lost against the African nations in the world cup, winning all their three games by an aggregate score of 8-0.
- China’s 1-0 defeat in the last game was their just 3rd defeat in 19 group games.
Captain and Vice-Captain options:
Li Yang: China’s superstar No-10 was instrumental during her team’s run in 2018 AFC Asian Women’s Cup, where she scored 7 times in just 5 appearances. Though she drew blank against the Germans, expect her to be amongst the goals against South Africa who were dreadful while defending against Spain.
X-Factor:
Janine van Wyk: Since making her debut in 2005, van Wyk has been an integral part of the South African team. She played a huge role in her country’s run to their maiden world cup finals.
China’s backline: Though China lost the first game, they made Germans work hard for the win. Their defensive plan was almost perfect, hardly giving the two-time champions any space in the final 3rd. A point could have been in the bag had it not for an incredible effort from Giulia Gwinn.
Select at least two Chinese defenders
