Women: Romania – Macedonia 6:1

Eighth defeat for the Women national team in the qualifications for the 2015 World Cup.

The girls travelled to Romania in the second to last qualifier. Surprisingly they managed nearly a whole first half to maintain a lone goal lead by the Romanians before eventually letting in a second goal in the 42nd minute. Five minutes after the break Macedonia even pulled one back but from that moment everything went downhill as the hosts added 4 more goals for a final win of 6:1.
