Women's Nations League 2023, Group B2, Games 5 & 6.  Whew, this really is a jam-packed episode, as Mark W and Rich review the final two Women's Nations League games for Finland's Helmarit; a dominant 6-0 win over 10-woman Romania and a battling 2-2 draw away in Slovakia. They also look at the potential impact of this campaign on the Euro 2025 qualifying matches in late-2024.  They then look at the Huuhkajat, who not only have the Nations League playoff for Euro 2024, but their next Nations League group will be drawn early next year. Who said football never stops!  The Liigacup 2024 groups have been confirmed, so we look forward to some cold, indoor action starting in January. While in the Veikkausliiga, more dust has settled on FC Honka's (latest) demise, while a new management team at SJK Seinäjoki prompts an in-depth look at SJK Akatemia in 2023.  00:00:00 Intro00:01:24 Match Report: Finland 6-0 Romania00:10:22 Match Report: Slovakia 2-2 Finland00:17:43 Women’s Euro 2025 qualifying groups00:22:29 Men’s Euro 2024 playoff: Wales vs Finland 21.3.202400:25:01 Men’s 2024 Nations League Draw 8.2.202400:26:44 Captain’s Ball 2024 winners 00:29:22 FC Honka drop down 3 divisions, Gnistan up(?)00:36:37 Liigacup 2024 draw00:40:20 Stevie Grieve named SJK Seinäjoki new head coach00:53:22 HJK Helsinki’s final Europa Conference game ------------------------------------------------------------------ FFS MERCH 👕 Apparel, cases, bags, badges https://www.teepublic.com/user/finnish-football-show ☕️ Mugs, stickers https://www.redbubble.com/people/DYWMpodcast/shop SUPPORT THE SHOW 🍺 Buy Us A Beer https://www.buymeacoffee.com/FFSpodcast FEELING SOCIAL?
