Japan’s 2007 FIFA Women’s World Cup Team looks up to the rest of the field…not in ability, maybe, but in stature according to FIFA Women’s World Cup China 2007 – Official Rosters.

The average height of the Japanese team is 1.63m (5′4″) tall.

Denmark and Canada’s girls average 1.72m and Sweden’s girls are

1.71 (5′8″ish).

North Korea’s goal keeper is bigger than two Japanese girls…well, not really.fifa.china.2007.jpg

YUN Hyon Hi is 196cm (6′5″).

Japan does NOT, however, have the smallest girls on their team…Florence Okoe of Ghana is 147cm, Tochukwu OLUEHI (150cm) and Fabiana VALLEJOS (153cm) of Argentina are also among the dimunitive.

North Korea’s YUN Hyon Hi is just 15 years old.

They sure grow big in the DPR for not having much to eat. No?
