Women’s football is evolving. Throughout its development, the players had to deal with many misconceptions. The years have passed, mentalities are gradually changing but some clichés still have a hard life.
We still hear certain voices regularly rising to denounce the technical quality of female encounters. An image of Epinal. “”I don’t really agreeexplains the former midfielder of the Swiss team Sandy Maendly. Switzerland’s second goal against Czech Republic [ndlr: succès 4-1 le 26 juin à Winterthour] Watch the opposite“.
“I really invite those who think like that to come and see the Euro meetings and they will see if we know how to play or not“, Smiles Alisha Lehmann. The first matches of the euro prove him right, of the exceptional half-time of Lia Wälti during Switzerland – Norwaywhose precision of the balls and passes has been surgical, to the subtle opening of Sydney Schertenleib for Géraldine Reuteler, passing by the demonstration of technical ease Spanish against Portuguese At the magnificent goal of Alexia Potellas (cushioning of the chest, hook, strike at the first post). Tasty for any football lover.
The technical quality displayed is all the more remarkable since it is often forgotten since the development of women’s football is a good twenty years late. Among the consequences, “Girls often start football quite late“Develops Maendly. These lost years are not trivial.”These are the most important in terms of coordination and learning technique.“The path to survey is still long, but the progress made in recent years in female football, still in full evolution, will only increase over time.
