FIFA grand final a few hours away!

The grand final for the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup is about to land within hours’ time at the National Football Stadium in Port Moresby.

It will be an Asian and European showdown with France, the debutants, ready to fight against the more experienced Korea DPR.

After defeating USA in the major semifinal playoff on Tuesday, Korea DPR coach Hwang Yongbong said it was their goal to snatch the trophy of the tournament, and they will fulfil that goal.

However, after seeing France, who stunned Japan in extra time of the second semifinal match, coach Yongbong said it will be an interesting grand final match as they both had won the berth in extra time played.

The European U20 champions and FIFA U20 grand finalist debutants, France, on the other hand, patiently wait for the moment of truth tonight.

France coach Gilles Eyquem said Korea has a good technique and tactics of football, and more experienced, but France will do their best to win the tournament.

He said they also want to make their Papua New Guinea local cheer team and supporters proud.

The grand final match is set at 7pm tonight after the third and fourth playoff between USA and Japan at the National Football Stadium in Port Moresby.
