Canada vs China, New Zealand vs Netherlands: How to watch, schedule, preview

Canada vs China

As the host nation of this year's Women's World Cup, Canada kicks the games off against China. Group A is fairly even from top to bottom so both teams will be looking to get a jump on the competition with a win. In 2011, Canada finished last in the tournament, scoring just one goal the entire tournament. The team is expected to blow past the 2011 results and make a deep run in the tournament possibly all the way to the finals. China is a young squad this time around with 11 players under the age of 24 and no player is over the age of 26. Despite their youth China has a lot of talent and is capable of getting out of the group.
