Always pull for the upset.   Unless it's us.

 

[Christo]

I'm diggin' these France kits.

NEVER pull for Brazil.

eta: Unless they're playing England.

 

[Christo]

NEVER pull for Brazil.

NEVER pull for France.

Seems to work both ways. 

 

[otb_lifer]

Always pull for the upset.   Unless it's us.

what if we're the underdog?

I'm diggin' these France kits.

My wife, who played college soccer, hates them. 

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Well then we're screwed.

 

[Christo]

Horrible reversal.

 

[Christo]

My wife, who played college soccer, hates them. 

Well my wife, who's a Spanish teacher, disagrees.

 

[JaxBill]

This ref might need a police escort between the reversal and the uncalled Brazilian "physicality"

Renard did her best to get caught up with the Brazilian "physicality."

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Horrible reversal.

In every sport I only a support reversal when it's totally obvious. And this was not.

 

[Jobber]

Guess they don’t teach “crash the net” to Brazilian women.

 

[JaxBill]

Lol 10 feet offsides and wagging your finger No.

 

[Jobber]

Lol 10 feet offsides and wagging your finger No.

And how in the Sam Hill do all three of them get that far offside in the first place??

 

[Jobber]

Who wears lipstick in a soccer game? Marta looks like Miranda Sings ffs.

 

[mr. furley]

Brazilian coach looking like Barry Alvarez's younger brother

 

[mr. furley]

something tells me @sho nuff is winning this one on a late header for the French

 

[otb_lifer]

HOW DID THEY MISS BIG BIRD FOR A HEADER ON THAT CORNER?

 

[otb_lifer]

####### clothesline?

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Debinha just needed a fraction more on that toe poke.  Great run on goal by one of my favorite names in futbol.

 

[JaxBill]

They scored too soon!

 

[Christo]

WTF do the Frenchies think they are appropriating the Icelanders' mojo?

 

[otb_lifer]

great ending, i was certainly entertained  ... man, Brasil was so damn close to the upset - would've loved to see that 

France was put thru the wringer - very physical match, took a ton outta them ... a drained squad awaits our gals - España first, of course

Solid game, entertaining throughout.

That sort of thing slip your mind regularly?

Pretty awesome statement by Marta after the match - love the passion on display here.

she talks like an Italian very handy, so to gesticulate

sounds like she has a hair across the ### with the young'ns work ethic, or lack thereof. good for her - kids can get soft if ya don't ride 'em.

Exhaust port

Horan not in the starting lineup.  Likely due to the yellow card, but it takes some balls to not start her in a knockout game.  I guess I can understand looking ahead to France.  I've not seen Spain play, but keep reading about how they have to be taken seriously.  Cards re-set after the quarterfinals.

 

[Ned]

             Rapinoe - Morgan - Heath

                 Mewis - Ertz - Lavelle

Dunn - Sauerbrunn - Dahlkemper - O'Hara

                              Naeher

REMEMBER THE MAINE!

Mewis played so well last game and Ertz is back, so Horan can afford to sit.  It's one of those things that great teams can do that we've never seen on the men's side, so it's confusing.  

 

[Ned]

Get some!

 

[General Malaise]

CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG!!!!!

 

[CletiusMaximus]

I think O'Hara is the only US player in the game who is on a yellow.  She would be suspended next game if she gets one today.

 

[encaitar]

What a ball from Dahlkemper and a great move from Heath.  That was two very impressive skills by two different players there.  Incredible.
