Women's Futsal World Cup: Argentina fall to Portugal in the semi-finals | OneFootball

The Argentine Women's Futsal Team couldn't match the strength of Portugal in one of the semifinals of the first Women's Futsal World Cup. The match was held at the PhilSports Arena in the Philippines and ended 7-1 in favor of the Portuguese team, which will play the final against the winner of Spain-Brazil. Meanwhile, the Albiceleste will face the loser of the other semi on Sunday.

The Match

It was a very tough start, as due to some mistakes and the relentless intensity of the Portuguese team, after 10 minutes the match was 5-0 in favor of Portugal: goals by Lidia Moreira, twice, Fifo, two goals, and Janice Silva. At 14', Ana Azevedo scored the sixth for the team led by Luis Conceicao.

The second half also saw quick goals, as Inés Matos scored in the first minute to extend Portugal's overwhelming lead. Before the end of the match, Mailén Romero scored for Nicolás Noriega's team.

The story doesn't end here because the Albiceleste will compete until the last day and will play the match for third place next Sunday at 6:00 against Brazil or Spain, ranked 1 and 2 in the world, respectively.
