Football Ferns ready for World Cup challenges

The draw for the biggest women's sporting event in the world was made at a glitzy affair in Paris. The Football Ferns will meet European champions the Netherlands, world No.7 Canada and Cameroon in the month-long tournament in France beginning on June 7.

"As expected, it is a tough draw. It is a World Cup and when you are in the third pot you are going to get some tough opposition," said Sermanni, who took on the coach's role with the Football Ferns in October.
