“PNG women’s football must look beyond the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup in Port Moresby,” says Papua New Guinea’s team Coach, Lisa Cole, during the team’s final preparation in Goroka before they depart for New Zealand this Thursday.
Papua New Guinea is placed in a tough draw against Brazil, Sweden and South Korea. And for Cole, this means PNG will need to be very organised and patient in defence, and try to keep these games close and to look to steal points.
The American said the goal is to keep the score line close, for as long as possible, to frustrate their opponents and force them to change their game plan.
Meanwhile, she has instructed her charges to work hard, and make their opponents earn their victories.
