Spring into action

Hello and Welcome to your new issue..
This month sees the final of the Champions league as we travel to Madrid to watch France's Lyon play Germany's Turbine Potsdam. After years of funding and searching Europe for some of its best players Lyon have finally made that step from 'just there' to being there and we wait to see if they can defeat a Potsdam team, full of German national team players.

As the American Womens Professional Soccer season enters its second year we will get our section up to date and see if all the new talent makes an impact. Good luck to Fitz Johnson and the Atlanta Beat in their first season.

The whole world will be watching for the talents of 'Mona' Bachmann considered one of the best young players in the world. Further up the East coast will be Lianne Sanderson and Philadelphia Independence, bringing back a franchise that once had Kelly Smith and the French great Marinette Pichon. Hopefully they both will fight the forces that saw the fall of Los Angeles Sol.

EURO U19 is on the horizon and will be in focus in our next issue. This issue we look beneath the smiley faces and large fan boards at the dark reality which faces a footballgirl but never makes the headlines in our new feature Night and Day.

Gavin Samuels a friend of footballgirl.com when it was just a dream talks to us about his life in Korea and why they will one day dominate female football in Mag Interviews. Star Interviews meets up with Anders Maki from Swedish champions Linkopings fc as he gives us a look at the life of running a club at the top.

Robin Stafford and Linia patel join us to share some advice that is helping the best young players in the world and we welcome the letterz section were we all get to read what the footballgirl world is thinking. Another jam packed issue!

Enjoy xoxo

Anja.
