I was surprised to see that #CanWNT rose a tiny bit in the FIFA rankings, because I didn't think they've done that well recently. They've only had losses against their peers. Their wins came against weaker teams. There was a draw vs a team they should have beaten.
❌ THE BREAKDOWN⭕
The #CanWNT have had their woes against top 10 sides lately - so what's plagued them?
@alexgangueruzic.bsky.social dives into the #s behind those woes, as he looks at areas of improvement heading into a big 18 months

The #CanWNT moves up in the FIFA Rankings after two wins against South Korea and Zambia at the FIFA Series.
Certainly a lot more life in the program after those results — they’re up to No. 9 in the world.
The games had potential to bump them out of the top 10.
Better luck next time
#CANWNT FT from Brazil.

My absolute delusion gives me confidence that if Casey Stoney and I ever sat next to each other at a football match, we'd be best friends in ten minutes or under.

The format for the W Championship will be direct knockout & unless there is a wild swing in the FIFA rankings, these will be the matches:
#USWNT - El Salvador
#CanWNT - Panama
Mexico - Haiti
Jamaica - Costa Rica
The winners of those games qualify for Brazil. The best-case for losers is the play-in
⚽ Match Discussion: One wonders if Stoney would through one of Hunter or Chukwu into that battle with Haas. Maybe another chance for Prince to improve on her brace performance at this FIFA Series?

Don't forget, we've got a sextet of huge matches in Concacaf tonight & tomorrow, with every place alongside the #USWNT and #CanWNT in the W Championship up for grabs.
Here's a primer from the start of the window: getconcacafed.substack.com/p/could-ther...
In her media availability, #CanWNT Head Coach Casey Stoney mentioned that her side will need to go to another level defensively against host nation Brazil.
While Canada have yet to concede from open play in this FIFA Series, Brazil have had 9 different scorers across their two matches so far.
