World Cup final: under victory types appreciated

Jill Ellis and Sarina Wiegman had it not easy in your profession, to enforce the two women on the coach benches in the world Cup final, USA against the Netherlands is an important Statement.

it's a shame that the trace logs of the world Federation Fifa does not provide for a direct encounter. Joint press conferences in the women's world Cup 2019, as well as the final between the USA and the Netherlands (Sunday 17 clock/ ARD) is no exception. A warm Handshake, a strong hug or an intimate chat, in order to assure mutual respect, falls to so. The Jill Ellis and Sarina Wiegman would certainly do immediately.

In the final two trainers, the gang are in essence and will be very similar to meet. The British born Ellis, 52, and the Dutch Wiegman, 49, have shaped each in their own way winning teams. The a's won in 2015, with the United States, in Canada, the world Cup, the other in 2017, with the Netherlands in the European championship. Their share in the Successes is often still protects as well as the efficiency of the gear train at the Station Vieux Lyon is underestimated, which transports thousands of tourists up to the Basilica on the hill of Fourvière.

Both are similar in the Occurrence and announcements

Ellis, in Folkestone, on the English channel was born, went early in the United States. Only on the College in Virginia, what you missed previously learned: "I got kicked out in England with the boys on the Playground and knew I had zero chances to play there football. This is what gave me the United States.“ In January 2011 she started as development Director of the US soccer Federation (USSF), and in may 2014 she took over the head coach Job.

Wiegman, in The Hague, born, has also experienced an American College, which gave her a strong appreciation for women's football. This is the same as in the case of Ellis, which has given her the USA. They subsequently made 104 appearances for the "Oranje Leeuwinnen", worked for the Dutch Federation (KNVB) as a youth coach, did construction work as a club coach, acted as a Scout and assistant with the national team. The chief trainer Items you got after the world Cup 2015, initially on an interim basis, and then in January 2017 final.

Both are similar in appearance, in the announcements. In your peace, your strength. In the Social Media channels both enjoyable hold back, something like this would only distract. Be appreciated elsewhere, sovereignty and leadership. Both trust a strong man in your team of trainers: In the case of Ellis, the Swede Tony Gustavsson plays as an assistant to an important role, in Wiegmann's your countryman Foppe de Haan.

Still the men world

In the press conferences, both of which act only superficially boring. Because you formulate it more technically, rarely striking. You convince with the technical skills, the stirring, from a wealth of experience. They are more flexible than many people think. Ellis linked for the United States, the superior athleticism last with game components: you welded together your Team with a calm nature. In the political messages of a Megan Rapinoe has not interfered with us – they are not held also. Wiegmann familiar in the Netherlands, always the same staff and the same basic formation, but it has the cheers-style of 2017 in the efficiency of football in 2019 and transferred, the same is victorious. A Topspielerin as the battered Lieke Martens strengthens the back.

As a successful women on the coach benches both for your profession are a fundamental Statement, because there is still the male gender dominates disproportionately. Just nine of the 24 world Cup participants came up with a coach to France. Four years ago in Canada it was only eight. In the U17 women's world Cup, Fifa had decreed that at least one woman had to be in the coaching staff. Wiegman finds that the final can have the effect of occupation more: "It is good, if the women develop in all areas. We need more, to get a Chance in the higher positions, this applies to all areas of society. We need opportunities to show our qualities.“

As Martina Voss-Tecklenburg was still part of this world Cup, was questioned by the Federal trainer repeatedly on this issue. "Generally speaking, each Association must decide for itself and it's own way. We are happy to work in mixed trainer teams.“ In principle, the 51-Year-old for the Generation of self-confident trainers, who have emancipated from a paternalistic is. Only your missing what can throw Ellis and Wiegman in the balance: an international title as a coach. One of the two wins on Sunday is the second.
