what are the right dates again?

ps i heard england will not be on algrave because they have to play for the euro 2009

sad....; was hoping to see Brownie play on Algarve but off course euro is more important...
now i have to wait untill 2009 to see the england ladies team on my tv again?

or maybe a friendly game-request against belgium or holland

5 March Finland - Sweden
Denmark - Germany

No England.

7 March Finland - Germany
Denmark - Sweden

10 March Finland - Denmark
Denmark - Finland

Other main group is China, Norway, USA and France- I don't know the dates

And according to the Icelandic FA the third group (group C, the weaker one) is Iceland, Poland, Portugal and Ireland.


Oh and HLF fan the USWNT may play a friendly in Sweden in July and Hope Solo may be there.

hey bud i also heard france woudnt be on algarve cup and italy was asked in their place

Off topic here a bit, but I recall reading a few years ago that Hanna Ljungberg signed for (mens) Perugia (I think) in Italy. Back when Jay Bothroyd was playing. What happened or did I just imagine this?

no she didnt signed bud perugia want a women in there men team then as a stunt

and thet asked hannan ljungberg and Birgit Prinz

U.S. has new faces for Algarve Cup
Wednesday, March 05, 2008
With a new coach and the Olympics fast approaching, the annual Algarve Cup takes on a greater significance for the United States women's national team this year.

After sweeping through the Four Nations Tournament in China in January, the U.S. heads into tomorrow's Group B Algarve Cup opener in Portugal against China looking to keep the momentum building under new coach Pia Sundhage.



"The Algarve Cup is a very important tournament for several reasons," Sundhage said. "First, it is excellent preparation for the Olympic qualification, especially playing four difficult matches in eight days. That is a test of our fitness, our mental toughness and also our depth.

"But also, like we faced in the Four Nations Tournament ... it gives the team a chance to play against three very good teams in the group who all play different styles, and that is fantastic for the development of our team rhythm, as well as for our young players getting experience at a big tournament."

After China, the Americans play Italy Friday and Norway Monday. The placement matches for the 12-team tournament will be played March 12.

The U.S. will get very little time off. CONCACAF qualifying for the Olympics begins April 4 in Mexico.

It may sound funny for Sundhage to cite the team's youth. That had never been a problem under previous coaches who had the luxury of fielding the likes of Mia Hamm, Julie Foudy, Joy Fawcett and Kristine Lilly for well over a decade.

Lilly, 36, is still active, but she is taking the year off to have a baby and you have to wonder if she'll ever play again. She is the United States' all-time leader in Algarve Cup goals with 13.

Of the 20 players on the roster, only four -- defenders Christie Rampone (179), Kate Markgraf (168) and Cat Whitehill (123) and forward Abby Wambach (108) -- have more than 100 caps.

In fact, six players -- 30 percent of the roster -- have fewer than nine caps.
