So what are you waiting for? Here’s what they had to say.
🏴 Mary Earps: France
🏴 Caroline Weir: USA
🇧🇷 Andressa Alves: It’s so hard to pick just one!
🇳🇴 Caroline Hansen: For us, South Korea. In general, France
🇩🇪 Sara Doorsoun: France
🇮🇹 Cristiana Girelli: There are so many! I would say the US and Germany are the favourites
🏴 ME: Not an England team-mate?! Le Sommer
🏴 CW: Alex Morgan
🇧🇷 AA: Lieke Martens or Eugénie Le Sommer
🇳🇴 CH: Le Sommer
🇩🇪 SD: Caroline Hansen
🇮🇹 CG: Vivianne Miedema
🏴 ME: Megan Rapinoe
🏴 CW: Alex Morgan!
🇧🇷 AA: Le Sommer, Martens or Megan Rapinoe
🇳🇴 CH: Sam Kerr
🇩🇪 SD: Caro Hansen again, right now she’s so good
🇮🇹 CG: Tobin Heath or Alex Morgan. But Miedema or van de Donk could also do it!
🏴 ME: England v Germany!
🏴 CW: Scotland v England
🇧🇷 AA: Brazil v France/Brazil v United States
🇳🇴 CH: Us against Germany, so we can beat them after the final loss (Euro 2013) we had
🇩🇪 SD: Germany against France
🇮🇹 CG: Italy v US. To be the best, you have to beat the best.
🏴 ME: Never let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. There’s a real future in this game now. Believe it, work hard, and you can achieve it. It’s becoming more and more professional, so strive towards it, give it everything you have, don’t be afraid to be different!
🏴 CW: If you enjoy football and you want to be a footballer, there are opportunities out there. It’s great that it’s going to be on TV and for girls growing up they can actually see their role models doing what they want to do. If they want to achieve their dream of being a footballer then they should believe it.
🇧🇷 AA: To never give up on their dream, that it will definitely come true. When you try hard, when you dedicate yourself, then you can play a World Cup as well. So, that children, people, never change their dreams, but change the world. And make a difference so that their dreams can come true.
🇳🇴 CH: Enjoy football, have fun, embrace yourself on the pitch. It should be an enjoyable game!
🇩🇪 SD: Just enjoy the game. If you play the game, give your best to play at a World Cup as well!
🇮🇹 CG: To enjoy it to the last. As well as being a special moment for Italy and for all sports fans, this World Cup must be a symbol for all those girls and boys who pursue their passions and their dreams. We must always believe in ourselves even when the whole world seems to turn its back on you.
