    MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015 SPORTS England dump hosts Canada Canadians collapse in tears VANCOUVER: England scored twice in three first-half minutes then held on to beat hosts Canada 2-1 on Saturday and book a spot in the Women’s World Cup semi-finals against Japan. The hosts had been hoping to secure the semi-final spot against the defending champions on Canada Day, July 1, in Edmonton but instead it was England who moved into the last four of a World Cup for the first time. England coach Mark Sampson paid tribute to the opposi- tion and fans. “I have never been in a stadium as loud, as pas- sionate for their team as that was, they couldn’t have pushed us any further we had to really, really dig deep today to get the result we wanted,” he told reporters. “They’ve shown a desire I have never seen in an England team before to hang on in there and get us through to the next round.” Without a men’s or women’s World Cup title since 1966, and exasperated by another failure at the men’s U21 European Championships, the “Lionesses” have become the toast of England. “We’re history makers again, only the third England team to get to a semi-final, we have now joined that 1966 and 1990 club, very, very proud of the whole group,” beamed Sampson.

More surprisingly, no athletes were listed among the 300 or so entries, either in a generalist or specific category: perhaps, because of the significance of amateurism as a prevailing ethos in sport until the 1960s.

    e-Journal n°27 – September 2019 A Word From… The « OL ANG’ELLES » Team A new season has begun, racing along at the same frantic pace at which last season ended. This edition covers the start of a new season with the same lofty goals: The team aims to defend all its titles and win every available trophy—now 5 in total—even as the competition gets tougher every year. For the OL ANG’ELLES, we aim to once again be present for every match throughout France and in Europe, even as the number of games increases. Avaldsnes / Norway Amsterdam / Netherlands Wolfsburg/Germany Chelsea/England Budapest/Hungary The 1st title has already been secured. Lyon defeated the North Carolina Courage in the United States to take home the WICC title. It’s a tournament that is gaining significance and getting ever closer to a sort of Club World Cup. Even though Lyon won the treble in 2018-19, some of the victories were not easy to come by last year, as Ada explained to OLTV after last year’s final in Budapest: « It was incredible season because it wasn’t obvious that we would win the treble…we showed we can come through even in the difficult moments, and we showed again that we are the best team…it’s a dream ». The presence of Gérard Houiller at practices and many of the matches at the end of the season was a clear precursor to the overhaul of the coaching staff at every level of OL Féminin. A completely new staff, changes to the administrative structure… A new season has begun…but in what mood? Will there be improved relationships with the fans? Will more games be held in full D1 stadiums to build off growing interest in the women’s game following the World Cup?...at least 1 of a possible 5 titles is already in the bag! Mailing Address: OL ANG’ELLES – 11 Impasse Jules Verne – 38080 L’ISLE D’ABEAU Telephone: 07.83.16.21.48 - [email protected] Awards… UEFA Trophy Of the 3 Lyon players named finalists for the title of UEFA’s Women’s Player of the Year, alongside Ada and Amandine, it was LUCY who ultimately took home the trophy.
