August 6, 20232 yr Rapinoe was literally a toss of a penalty kick. But the other two shanks didn't help.
August 6, 20232 yr Popular Post On the bright side, we’ll never have to pretend to root for Rapinoe again.

August 6, 20232 yr On the VAR was it quite obvious? I don’t have any TV here this weekend so I was just following along through ESPN.

August 6, 20232 yr I slept through it until midway through the pens. From the stats, it looks like we dominated but the Swedish keeper had the game of her life. Is that the gist?

We didn't score in our last 2 games!!!! 210 minutes!! 238 when you count the end of the Netherlands game. I mean I get that the Swede keeper was amazing today, but still.

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. Just to revisit this. It was 5-4 on 7 rounds. Their keeper made 0 saves, we only put 4 shots on frame 3 misses. Our keeper made a save and got her hand on the winner but it went in (and they missed one too).
August 6, 20232 yr Well at least it was on a Sunday morning so my work week won't be fucked up. I hate this entire Cup. Now only rooting for teams with the hottest players.

She did not have a C game. In very limited minutes.
August 6, 20232 yr Any other game I feel like 2 of those shots today go in. Swedish keeper was nails all game. We were the better team today, just couldn't finish. Women's game way more competitive now, we're not going to out athlete anyone anymore.

Our NCAA programs are pretty damn good. We do not have a solid pro system, so something will have to give.

August 6, 20232 yr 10 minutes ago, Horn80 said: Not surprised they lost. Arrogant team. HUH? I thought they were: Poorly coached Indecisive Unable to finish chances Made poor decisions Lacked trust Played a lackluster offense Had some players that were older than dirt Made shitty subs But I didn't think they were arrogant.
August 6, 20232 yr Funny, FOX shows O'hara's miss, but not the other two stars. That would piss me off if I was her. Team has a future. We need a coach and for the legacy olds to retire.
August 6, 20232 yr Wow Started 4 my time. Zoomed through just got done 93 mins later 4 and 5 kickers choked No replay of final goal? Wtf

And while she made hers, Naeher shot 6th?!?! I would have put Williams 4 and pushed Rapinoe all the way down to the bottom, said that way back

August 6, 20232 yr Just watched. Or should Insay, YouTubeTV spoiled that it was almost 3 hrs so knew it was PKs and just fast forwarded to there presuming 0-0. Everything that is wrong with this coach and this team dynamic played out in the substitutions and the PKs. This is essentially the USWMNT version of 2018. We wasted a cycle on a generational star due to loyalty to lesser players that lost a step or were ultimately JAGs. Fire the coach sometime in the next month and reboot.

The entire knockout round was arranged to fit the USA’s TV schedule. (Not an opinion, a reported fact.) The USA was/is the #1 ranked team in the world and they always win their group, so the winner of our group was to stay in New Zealand and play in PRIME TIME on Saturday night. Second place was going to go to Melbourne, which is 2 hours behind New Zealand, and play a late Sunday morning/early afternoon match. Planned US time: 7p PT/ 8p MT/ 9p CT/ 10p ET Planned Dutch start: 11a Instead: US start: 2am PT -> 5am ET Dutch start: 4am (as well as South Africa time) This was 100% due to the USWNT & coach sucking dysentery ass. The USA is far and away the biggest TV market for the Women’s World Cup, so an attempt was made to cater to the American viewers as much as possible. POST MATCH MUSIC: After Sweden 🇸🇪 won, the PA system at the stadium started playing Euro electronic music and I thought “That’s just the kind of music that the world listens to.” …then I looked up the song and laughed at the significance behind the song choice …
August 6, 20232 yr ESPN has a lot of short video clips with the reaction. Some are quite interesting.

If Morgan isn’t planning to retire, then someone needs to plan it for her.The old people need to be cleared from the team before next year’s Olympics Rapinoe played like what Roldán would have played like if he had made it into the World Cup. She never should have been on the team. Should could have been an assistant coach or player liaison, but never should have taken a roster spot, much less actually entered a game.

August 6, 20232 yr The men’s and women’s teams are both good when they put players who can score goals on the pitch. Playing defensive style is almost always going to be an L.
August 6, 20232 yr well that sucked but at least no more middle of the nighters. that was not a team, it was a collection of players. like we were playing a video game. ugh. so uninspired. the olds hate the youngs and i don't think there's much admiration running the other way.

August 6, 20232 yr someone posted the bracket was lost in the first game thoroughly enjoyed skipping the last 2 games had to skip portugal = worknight could have gotten up this morning but knew the probable result, but really expected to roll over, turn on the phone and see a scoreline of 1-1 or 2-2 out AET 2 nil-nil draws in a row = parcells :: your karma is shit, you are bad people and you should feel bad parlow should have to sign every one of the players' appearance checks, and the players should have to collect the checks in person, like at a signing ceremony, then be required to speak at a presser, all of it live on espn to stick a fork in fox for agreeing to the outrageous commercial campaigns pimping this panda-placenta-abortion tournament display
August 6, 20232 yr Lost on a missed Rapinoe pk. Can't make it up. The coach is a dipshit. We still have the most talent of any country but the advantage is dissipating. Fire his ass, write Rapinoe a check for $10,000,000 to never make another public appearance and slowly shoo Morgan out the door and we'll be okay. And have the ladies start playing in Europe like the men do. We more than likely win with Lavelle out there. Oh well. Maybe better for the program to get bounced here than lose some shitty heartbreaker in the semis.
