Well, it seems to be over for guys, anyway it was already big success that they are in last round of qualification event, hoping that they will qualify in 2030 

Nah, Scotland women started 0-2 in the Euros, got to the Final.  Long way to go.

They have already beaten Japan, so a win would them in a strong place.

Japan missed their last shot with hammer in the 10th last night against the Philippines for them to stay alive.  USA's remaining 2 games are against Philippines and Netherlands, so they have a tough road ahead, although they've already beaten Japan, so that helps for tiebreaker purposes.

6 games done in the Women's Draw & even without the final result of   the top 4 cannot be shaken, so the last round will merely determine the semi-final draws

Do or die for the US women.  Japan has nothing to play for, but I'm sure they would love to beat Norway if they have to face them again.  Let's go Tabitha!
