American Samoaโ€™s Womenโ€™s World Cup fairytale takes them from โ€˜underdog to dark horseโ€™ Alma Manaโ€™o, the captain, reflects on their journey from a 21-0 defeat in 1998 to a place in the final round of qualification The American Samoa womenโ€™s team has lived through a scarcely believable tale littered with upsets, and their story is still unfolding. At the end of last year, they entered a World Cup qualification tournament containing the lowest-ranked teams in the smallest federation, the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC). At 153rd in the world rankings, American Samoa ranked the lowest of the low. With an estimated population of 45,319, the islandโ€™s entire population would not sell out even the smallest stadium hosting Fifaโ€™s showpiece event next year. The national teamโ€™s captain, Alma Manaโ€™o, talks of American Samoan culture as being โ€œfamily is above allโ€. Multiple sets of sisters represent the team, something Manaโ€™o relishes. โ€œThis is a family, we have got to get together, hold our sisters accountable and push each other,โ€ she says. The Manaโ€™o family hold the record for most family members to participate in Fifa events โ€“ โ€œIf we canโ€™t win, weโ€™re going to have the most kids!โ€ Alma declares with a laugh โ€“ and American Samoa are out to prove there can be success in the family business.

For @thehalfwayline.bsky.social I did my best to compose what an U23 Ireland WNT side could look like.

While a fun exercise, the goal is to illustrate just how important it is that the FAI makes the team a reality and gives players at a pivotal developmental age the opportunity.
