Women’s soccer is played on the same dimension field as mens but obviously a female goalkeeper can not cover as much ground as a man. It’s really a totally different game than male soccer and requires a lower skill level . Women move slower so there is much more time and space to play passes, etc., etc.

That is exactly correct. The speed isn’t the same but the size of the field and goals are. I find it actually makes for good entertainment - it’s just different.

Thank you!

I am glad the USA women won.

Having said that there are pictures of the women players with this U15 team. These boys towered over the women. The speed and physicality of boys this age make it no contest in a game.

For $1 or a million dollars a good U15 boys team wins every time.
