The Filipinas finally make their highly-anticipated debut in the FIFA Women’s World Cup today as they open their campaign in Group A against Switzerland at the Forsyth Barr Stadium under expected nippy weather in Dunedin, New Zealand.
Despite being the underdogs, the players of the Philippine team are expected to be in high spirits, hoping that their 18-month preparations would pay off against the La Nati in their 5 p.m. clash (1 p.m. Manila time) at the 30,000-capacity arena that was a site of the 2011 Rugby World Cup.
