    On the bright side, we’ll never have to pretend to root for Rapinoe again. 

  • So, would this be a bad time to ask for more money?

  • Fair play Chicken Sandwich. Doesnt mean they arent overpaid under performing cunts. Which I guess is the amercian way innit mate.

I gave Morgan shit for that offside shot, but when it was game on, she did what she needed for that ball.

US women going to feel sick if they lose this.  So many opportunities. 

lackluster is a word. 

also i never got scrubs. everyone loved that show but i just missed the boat on that one

This game has been frustrating on our finishing and their keeper standing on her head but we’ve created the better chances. I believe … 🇺🇸

They’re outperforming expectations going into tonight, so it’s an incorrect one.

This scares me. 

The only thing that is worrying me is their set pieces*. We're doing our thing pretty well on the defensive end if we can see it coming. 7 shots only 1 on frame.

What I do worry about is the fact that we can't find the net. We need to seize this advantage and score.

 

*EDIT - Note Sweden is running set pieces from 40 yards out now, they feel confident on these.

This start is starting to look like the rest of the tournament, and it’s probably/definitely due to lack of proper substitution

Not to defend Vlatko, but Sweden is only on 2 subs, making their 3rd right now.

Is the Swede goalie sneaky hot too? 

100%. Pointed that out to the wife earlier.

No sneaky about it. Although, right now I have my eye on the AR on the bench side.

wait, who's the 9 then? smith?

Must be, but not the switch I make right now. I would have agreed with Smith coming out for Rapinoe. Morgan woke up in overtime.

Rapinoe for Morgan?

Don't get it. Why would you do that?

watching rapinoe give up on that play broke my heart a little

She didn't give up, her old legs couldn't get here there. I though she gave up on that in real time, but the replay showed me a look I know all to well when you realize you can't move your body the way you need to get to a ball.

BTW - Lynn Williams is making me eat my words on the Rodman sub. After that first ball got away from her, she has been beating their left side up and down the field. Her plays have forced their keeper to make a lot of these saves.

Can Rodman come back?  

Edit: I kid, sort of.

I like her. The future is bright. I think her and Rodman would have created something. 

And I know what you mean about body action vs. mind intention. It is real. 

Now THAT was the first touch Smith!

 

That wasn't on frame, but forced a save.

You know what is breaking my heart? Watching her corners. If she can't get those into a play she really is useless out there.

VAR THAT SHIT!!!

Ok, not a penalty.

Williams is pretty damn good.

can we sub out Rapinoe?

Why not? We still have over half our subs left!!!

And I say that as a fan. She doesn't have the legs and even she knows it. We are slightly short of playing 10 v 11.

Agree, she had her time, it is not now. 

So many crosses left unpunished. 

Damn this team deserves so much better than a rapinoe retirement tour

Subs now?!?! Jesus christ Vlatko! Didn't you watch England in the Euros!!?!?!?!??!

And if he's going to make a sub this late, it has to be for Rapinoe. She is going to be useless in the shootout. You can almost predict the panenka.

 

If she isn't on the list as taker 10, I am going to fight someone.

Make it 11, I would trust Naeher more right now.

That free kick was depressing. She looks spry running off the ball I will say. 

And Morgan is good at penalties. DAMMMMITTTTTT

As has been said, fuck this retirement tour. 

Not liking penalty kicks against their goalie.

I don't like PKs because PKs.

But PKs are a much different animal than the game. She might have been hot in game, she could save ZERO of these and I wouldn't be shocked.

@InkaUtexas, appears @tokamak couldn’t hang, so think we’re the only two soldiers left from the beginning. 

Hey man I’ve been watching from the start

 

 

 

( never mind that it was 11pm my time)

Since the anthem. After the Red Sox debacle today I needed more sports!
