The semifinal diagram is here.
The diagram definitely shows the advantage of using the blue and red spectrum colouring, it is much easier to see which are the biggest teams, and to see gradations of shade.
The national team closest to the centre is England, while the Huston Dash are the club team closes to the centre. The US is linked to others by Jodie Taylor who plays for Reign FC. The three other national teams form a pretty solid triangle.
Through this link to Jodie Taylor, Reign FC are one of the teams who will have someone in the final, no matter what the semifinal results are. The other two are Bayern Munich and Montpellier.
The club with the most players left is Manchester City with 8, followed by Chelsea with 7 and Arsenal with 6. I don't know if this reflects the spending power of the Women's Super League now that most clubs are attached to Premier League clubs, or if it's pure chance.
Going to the community view, there are 4 teams left but 6 communities.
Lyon and Wolfsburg, the two "extra" communities, link two national teams teams, with one player from each team, other clubs that are joining two teams have been put into the community of the nation who supplies the most players.
Of course none of this answers the most important question - who do I support when England play the US? The Lionesses or Megan Rapinoe's team?!
