The soccer chief who addressed the press on the eve of Azerbaijan 2012 revealed that the quality of women’s football has increased recently.
He said: 'It’s a great moment in FIFA’s development of women’s football for us to have the possibility to organise this women’s competition in a country where the culture is different to every other country where we have organised women’s football so far.
'It has been a tremendous year for women’s football and this is the last women’s competition of the year. In the past two months we have had the Olympic football tournament – 600,000 tickets were sold for the women’s football, this has never been done. Then we had the U-20 Women’s World Cup in Japan and this was also a great success. I have to say the quality of women’s football has increased.'
