Sweden play Spain, the World Champions, in the Women's Nations League on Friday, kick-off 16:30 UTC. It's being used as the qualifiers for the Olympics, so it's a big match. Does anyone know where I can watch it online?

Most, if not all, of the Spain players that played at the World Cup are refusing to play for Spain right now, so I don't know how strong a team Spain are going to have.

Hopefully, if I get to see it, it'll be an interesting game anyway.

Due to internet problems I saw more or less none of the 1st half. I saw most of the 2nd half though. Judging from what I saw, Spain didn't play as though their morale was particularly low because of the current situation, they played quite well. It looked a pretty even game, I think a draw would have been the fairest result.

I'm unsure about the last minute penalty. At first I thought "No way!", but I was less sure after seeing the replay of it.

So, does this result make Spain the favourites to win the Olympics?

Possibly.

Netherlands, Spain and Germany win their Nations League groups to vie for the
two remaining spots at the Olympics (besides hosts France).

The Lionesses were eliminated by two Dutch stoppage time goals against Belgium
(perfectly fine with me, would have been awkward if Team GB had qualified for the
Olympics just because England piled it on against Scotland).

Denmark blew it by losing at home against Iceland, despite Wales doing them an unexpected
favour against Germany.

Ciao,
Werner

A performance so bad that the mayor of Viborg refuses to lest the team
play there anymore.
