The Female Football of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics took center stage on Wednesday with some magnificent results although it wasn't a good outing for Africa's representative, BSNSports.com.ng reports.
Team Great Britain vs Chile kicked off proceedings in what was an entertaining first but it was the ladies from Britain that took the day winning by 2 unreplied goals.
Brazil put up a five star performance to demolish China 5-0 with ageless Orlando Pride forward, Marta among the scorers for the Samba Queens.
Sweden shocked the world as they ended USA Women National Team (USWNT) 44 matches unbeaten run surmounting them to a 3-0 defeat in their Group G opening game.
Host Japan forced Canada to a 1-1 draw all thanks former Aston Villa player, Mana Iwabuchi who equalised for them six minutes before regulation time after they'd fallen behind as early as the opening six minute of the encounter.
It wasn't a good debut outing for Africa's representative Zambia as they were recklessly and ruthlessly beaten by The Netherlands 10-3 in a game that could have witnessed more goals.
