USA 7-2 QUOTE Defending champions and coached by Englishwoman Jill Ellis. Influential striker Megan Rapinoe has gone from patriotic national champion to cultural critic in her country, becoming as famous for her activism on and off the field. The 2015 World Cup winner became the first white woman to kneel at the American national anthem in protest against the administration of current US president, Donald Trump in 2016. Rapinoe has since announced she would take her protest to France and declared: 'I'll probably never sing the national anthem again." |

Cameroon 1000-1 QUOTE Cameroon’s journey to their second World Cup saw them record a 10-0 rout over minnows Congo. Despite never having won the African Cup of Nations - being defeated four times in the final - the squad is packed with both experience and youth - from veteran captain Madeleine Michele Ngono Mani to midfielder Raissa Feudjio, who made her debut for Cameroon at the London 2012 Olympics at the age of 16. |

Spain 12-1 QUOTE It was not until 1980 when Spain officially formed its first national women’s side during the country’s transition to democracy following the death of fascist dictator Francisco Franco. Nicknamed La Rioja, the side miraculously progressed to the last eight of the 2017 European Championships despite not scoring a single goal in 345 minutes of the competition. The side lost to Austria in a penalty shoot-out after the game finished goalless. |

New Zealand 66-1 QUOTE It’s proving quite a summer for New Zealand midfielder Katie Duncan, who will become a mum this July with her wife, former Former Fern Priscilla Duncan. Katie came out of international retirement earlier this year and her World Cup selection was announced over social media by her wife, Priscilla, who now works as part of Fifa’s communications team. Meanwhile, West Ham’s Ria Percival became the first New Zealander to play in an FA Cup final at Wembley, when her side lost to Manchester City last month. They beat England in a friendly 1-0 last Saturday. |

Argentina 500-1 QUOTE Argentina feature only nine professional players in their squad with several of their players - including Sole Jaimes, veteran midfielder Mariela Coronel and co-captains Florencia Bonsegundo and Estefani Banini - plying their trade in Europe. Changes are afoot in Argentina, though, and this month will see the creation of a domestic league competition, with the Argentinian Football Association (AFA) covering the players' wages.

South Korea 150-1 QUOTE In only their third World Cup qualification, South Korea go to France with a big challenge if they want to better their performance of four years ago. Facing the strength of the African champions, former winners in Norway and the pressure of opening the tournament against the fancied hosts will be no easy task - though Chelsea’s Ji So-yun, their all-time greatest goalscorer, will be on hand to help. |

Norway 25-1 QUOTE All the talk has focused on one player who isn't part of Norway's squad: Ada Hegerberg. The 2018 Ballon d’Or winner left herself out of selection due to a dispute over the national federations treatment of female players. “It can be tough to stand alone for something you believe in," she said in a recent interview. |

3. Algernon Monqueef
Netherlands 16-1 QUOTE Head coach Sarina Wiegman was the first Dutch player to gain 100 caps for her country and was honoured with a shield awarded by the then head coach of the men’s national team, Louis van Gaal. After hanging up her boots, she embarked on a managerial career which saw her lead the side to Euro glory on home soil in 2017. Vivianne Miedema lit up the WSL season, helping to drive Arsenal to the title, and bagging PFA’s Player of the Year. |

Canada is a pretty good team to get
 They were one of the teams playing in the only match of women's football I've attended. (USA's victory over Canada in the 2012 Olympics). |

Germany 5-1 QUOTE Germany remain the only nation to ever retain the Women’s World Cup, and yet their squad announcement video on social media last month showed the lack of recognition their numerous accolades have earned them. Their collective eye-rolling reaction to being gifted a tea set for winning a tournament and the players’ tongue-in-cheek questioning to camera (‘Do you know my name? Didn’t think so’) set the tone perfectly for a tournament being touted as a game-changer in the profile of the women’s game
