GWW is part of the team, so the card canīt be played, even if its target
is not namely GWW.

Btw, my chummer insists WGC can be played to send an intercepting team
home, as well as a Fuchi team. He argues with the rbt part saying
Runners going on a Shadowrun, not labeling these Runners Shadowrunners,
so by rbt there would be no difference between Runners and
Shadowrunners. The German version unfortunately states "...a target team
of Shadowrunners..." (trans.). Is there a FASA ruling that English
version card texts always overrule existing German or other language
texts, even if the English card is not in the game? There are a few
differences in card texts, like 1 Nuyen differences in location rewards
or wording on Challenges like Nets (all not each Runner).
