While women's football usually do not get much attention, not the fans are not excited when the World Cup rolls around every four years. Women's World Cup, which begins Saturday in Canada with the United States and 23 other teams will play for the best team on the planet. The United States, the World Cup champion in 1991 and 1999 (these were the days of Mia Hamm and Brandi Chastain), hoping to add a third title to his trophy cabinet.
With football one of the fastest growing sports in this country (remember how popular the game was last summer when the men's team in the World Cup in Brazil) will definitely excited about the selection of his USA as the tournament progresses. Here are five reasons why the Women's World Cup you have to follow this year:
Could the US win? Unlike the men of the United States, American women are at contenders to lift the Cup. Several team players are already famous names including strikers goalkeeper Hope Solo and Abby Wambach and Alex Morgan. The Americans lost in the finals to Japan on penalties in the World Cup 2011 and seeks to require some revenge this time, while hoping to end a trophy drought of 16 years.
"Competition is what makes us all better. That's not cliche. That's how our team," said Solo. "But it is a competition which is healthy. We know that the World Cup that 23 players will win."
The US party like 1999? That remains to be seen. Americans are in Group D - tournament "Group of Death" - along with Sweden, Australia and Nigeria. Spindles favorable schedule.
As mentioned, the tournament will take place just north of us in Canada. That means kick-off times will occur when most of you, especially on the East Coast, you can actually watch the games. Forget calling sick or trying to see on their phones at work.

Players have complained to play for years of injuries on artificial turf, while some have compared to playing on concrete. FIFA decision, critics said, smelled of sexism as the world governing body of the sport never consider tournaments for men in the things plastic.
There are plenty of Cinderella teams. France, Spain and Nigeria could very well stun the competition in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen whether these three countries - or any team for that matter - can the current power structure in the world of women's football to change.
