Japan will need to radically alter their approach now. They should be able to control the ball and be aggressive. They will look for a misstep to take advantage of, otherwise they're toast.

It's a 90-minute game, ladies.

What a crap goal

My own fault for betting women's soccer.

That defender did a great Sergio Ramos impression there.

Why did Japan spend the first 2/3 of the game just bombing the ball forward when they're clearly capable of controlling possession? Nerves getting the best of them? Strategic decision? I don't get it.

I think they felt they were vulnerable to the US simply beating them in the air or off through balls.

Somehow it's Jamie Carragher's fault.

This has turned into a good game.

Was leaning tie all morning. 
Of course there aren't going to be as many fouls. They really don't tackle.

I know soccer gets a "it's boring" rap from the non-fans/casual-fans, but anyone who just watches the US games in these last 2 World Cups has been treated to some exciting soccer. Literally all 4 of the US men's games (England game is iffy, but the other 3 were great) were exciting, and each of these last 3 women's games have been great, too.I do like Ian Darke, of course. I know Julie Foudy is a US women's legend, but I think she kinda sucks. Would've loved Efan Ekoku
. He's the best commentator around.

And? It's a different part of the women's game that makes it interesting.

It's always Jamie Carragher's fault.

Agree. I like soccer a lot so maybe its hard for me to be objective, but its hard to imagine that the casual fan doesnt find these games pulsating.I know soccer gets a "it's boring" rap from the non-fans/casual-fans, but anyone who just watches the US games in these last 2 World Cups has been treated to some exciting soccer.

Granted I don't watch much women's soccer, but do women ever score from outside the 18? These Japanese women are missing the net by a ####### mile every time they shoot from ~25 yards.

Beautiful cross by Morgan.

Great cross from Morgan on the goal
Why isn't Morgan a starter? Even if they're not going by looks, she should still get the nod.

Great individual play from Morgan, nice finish, and again...horrible defending.

Shes young - just 22. Was just drafted into the Women's league last year I believe. Also the youngest on the US squad. she'll probably be a mainstay in the future.
