1.) Really? Who follows womens football? lol
2.) I think it was played at Old Trafford. That stadium holds 75811. LOL It is home to Man Utd. So if it was even 50% full that means 35000 people watched the game live.
Frankly I think that is pretty damn good.
3.) It was between Canada and the US. No home team interest.
4.) Yes , its a long way from London which I would suspect is where the Canadian and American fans who travelled made their base.
