FIFA Women's World Cup 2015

[BBfanUSA]

Didn't realize it started today, Thought it started on Monday.

Is anyone else going to watch?

[Shaun]

Who's hosting, Brandon!!!!??????

[Denver]

Canada are the hosts

[Mokka]

Canada :dance:

And I will be watching as many Canadian games as I can :clap1:

[Denver]

Is it talked about a lot in Canada?

[Mokka]

Yes and No...
Because it's here it has been... But also I have nieces that play provincially and so female Soccer is a big topic in my family

[Mokka]

Canada vs China on in about an hour and a half... That will be a good game

Opening Ceremonies air in about a half hour on my telly

[BBfanUSA]

Yes and No...
Because it's here it has been... But also I have nieces that play provincially and so female Soccer is a big topic in my family

How popular is the rivarly with the Yanks over there? I usually forward to the matchups cause they usually deliver

[Mokka]

Perspective wise... Canadian Woman's Soccer is the only legitimate soccer team we have, (our men's team :rolleyes: ) and all rivalrys against the U.S. are everything to us... In Soccer, in Women's Hockey, in every sport, it is always us vs them.

Canada vs US always gets front page news and prime TV airing...
That Olympic game made it even more so </3

[Kyle]

I'm not one of those that has a team in every country but I like Toronto FC, is that your family's team Mokkajava?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Id rather eat live bees

[Mokka]

Id rather eat live bees

:p

Did anyone ask LT?? (Jk)

I'm not one of those that has a team in every country but I like Toronto FC, is that your family's team Mokkajava?

Soccer isn't followed here like it is in Europe Kyle,

And I am in Western Canada where the league teams are provincial, and have little to no coverage or following tbh...

But everyone cheers on Team Canada. Canadian Jerseys are pretty much the only ones bandied about

[Kyle]

:p

So they don't have a club side, just international?

[Denver]

^^^ I think hockey is there sport

[Mokka]

So they don't have a club side, just international?

Not in the same since that you do over there... I am not sure how to explain it because it isn't the number one sport that I follow personally, but I know that there are smaller clubs within the cities that youth and teens climb their way up through, and that Provincials is pretty much the goal of these youth before hitting team Canada if you are good enough.

Soccer is actually a pretty young sport for us, it doesn't have deep roots here, but it is the fast growing sport in terms of involvement, sponsorships, etc

[Kyle]

^^^ I think hockey is there sport

Cheers obvious, be sure to hang around I might need you to tell me how to pull a flush.

Oh yeh, I meant like how you said how soccer was a big topic in your family I thought they might have followed it at club level but I didn't read your post property it was cos they had family that played it.

[Mokka]

Right, at a provincial level

[Kyle]

Ha you also said female soccer. It would probably help if I actually read people's posts through before commenting but then again I don't even read my own posts through before posting so mmm penis I have no chance really. I could be saying anything and I wouldn't know. :shrug:

[Mokka]

:dance: :dance: :dance: CANADA WINS OPENING GAME :dance: :dance: :dance:

:worship: :worship: :worship: Christine Sinclair
Penalty kick in stoppage time....
Canada 1 - China PR 0

[Ninastar]

Is it over already?

[Mokka]

Game 1 is...

New Zealand vs Neatherlands plays tonight as well

[BBfanUSA]

So they don't have a club side, just international?

I have no idea how far west Java is but Vancouver has an MLS team and that's west from a club perspective. (There's 3, Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver)

I think there's a women's league in the states but there's not a single team in Canada so far but the Canadian FA is involved in the league along with the USSF and Mexican FA.

US actually has a English National as it's coach but she immigrated to the US at a young age.

[Mokka]

Vancouver has the Whitecaps...

When I lived there I followed them a bit, and got out to one game,
But now I'm in Saskatchewan, and league soccer doesn't reach us here at all really.

All I have now is the CFL and the Saskatchewan Roughriders :hehe:

[MTVN]

Terrible penalty decision, some definite home bias at play

[BBfanUSA]

I had work so I missed the first two matches, hopefully I'll catch some today

[Mokka]

Terrible penalty decision, some definite home bias at play

I don't know about bias... it looked on replay like the initial contact was accidental... but that the follow through resulted in Canada's player getting further shoved to the ground with an elbow to the side of the face...

and who knows the angle and perspective of the ref at that moment... they don't have the benefit of slow motion replay... and that is the how the sport goes :shrug:

but even if it was bias, Canada was on the other side of that for the Olympics... so I guess we can stand having bias in our favour for once :fan:

I had work so I missed the first two matches, hopefully I'll catch some today

I only saw bits and pieces of the second game... but I was the only goal. The second game seemed much more eventful :laugh:

[BBfanUSA]

Yep Norway vs Thailand is about to start soon,

Fox Sports/Fox are covering the Women's World Cup this year here, They're going all out. Their ad campaign is all about a country having a score to settle, the US has been shown the most but they're doing ads for other countries as well.

By the way, Alex Morgan is still injured so she's not at 100% but is on the US Roster, Java has to be happy about that :P

[Kyle]

Come on lasses learn to pass ffs, it's like watching bloody Rotherham.

[Kyle]

Unlucky, good header that.

[Kyle]

Women's goalkeeping strikes again.

1-0 Norway

[Kyle]

Norway looking tidy now they're 1 up.

[Kyle]

Thai keeper is having a mare. Norway had a few decent chances now.

[MTVN]

This Thailand team are god awful

[BBfanUSA]

This Thailand team are god awful

Probably only got in because of expanding the WC to 24 clubs.

[Kyle]

Tidy finish from the centre forward.

2-0

[BBfanUSA]

This is just going to get worse for Thailand

[Kyle]

Centre half ducks, did she think the keeper was coming for it? :laugh:

3-0

[BBfanUSA]

US Commentator just mentioned that Thailand's players have real jobs outside of this.

Gotta feel sorry for them, although the 2 week vacation has to be nice

[Mokka]

Soooooo.. Germany and Norway are the only teams to watch in Group B lol

This game is a scary catastrophe... If I were Germany I would pull all my starters just to save them from injury... and play as many bench warmers as possible

[BBfanUSA]

Yeah, I just turned on the Germany CIV game.

USA vs Australia and Sweden vs Nigeria should be way closer games tomorrow

[BBfanUSA]

Ten to Nil

Wow, I have to feel sorry for Ivory Coast

[Mokka]

I couldn't decide which team to feel worse for... CIV were playing rugby with all the tackles and hits out there...

Germany need one massive ice bath now :hehe:

[BBfanUSA]

no duh, 29 to 10 fouls in favor of Ivory Coast

[Mokka]

There were way more... The ref just gave up calling them towards the end :hehe:

[BBfanUSA]

There were way more... The ref just gave up calling them towards the end :hehe:

Oh yeah I agree,

She didn't because that'd make the score way worse for Ivory Coast

[BBfanUSA]

Way better game in Sweden vs Nigeria,

Currently tied 3-3, 3 minutes left.

[BBfanUSA]

USA just revealed their lineup for the game tonight

#USA XI: Solo (GK); Leroux; Sauerbrunn; Lloyd; Krieger; Holiday; Rapinoe; Johnston; Wambach (c); Klingenberg; Press.

[MTVN]

Hm might stay up for the first half

[BBfanUSA]

Teams are making their way out, Alex Morgan is on the US roster but she has a bruised bone in her knee. She may get subbed on.

Mostly Red White and Blue in attendance

[MTVN]

Aussies all over you pal

[Shaun]

first game i've seen so far that looks relatively competitive and even

[Shaun]

also christen press :flutter:

[BBfanUSA]

Well, at least it confirms something,

Group C is this tourney's Group of Death, Why does America get drawn into every one?

[BBfanUSA]

also christen press :flutter:

Shaun is going bezerk right now!

Christen Press GET IN!

[James]

Why is there a pause symbol (or an eleven) in the top-right of the screen? :S

[BBfanUSA]

USA's fitness is starting to wear out Australia

[BBfanUSA]

Leroux is off, Morgan is on.

Second Goal from Rapinoe

[Mokka]

GD it... My power went out and I missed this game :fist:

I really wanted to watch it :(

[Shaun]

Shaun is going bezerk right now!

Christen Press GET IN!

:laugh: what a hero <3

[MTVN]

I wonder if our women's team will be as perennially disappointing as the mens later this evening :think:

[BBfanUSA]

Cameroon played Ecuador yesterday in Group D as well, won 5-0.

Japan and Switzerland played last night as well, Japan won 1-0

[Kyle]

England have got Mr Tickle in net, arms everywhere.

[Kyle]

Beat on near post, good strike but weak wrists from our keeper.

[Kyle]

Hoof it up to Aluko and run, that's it England we now know where big Sam has been spending his time the last few weeks.

[Kyle]

Mr Tickle caught flapping in no man's land, can't afford to concede a second goal.

[Kyle]

That'll leave a mark Rafferty, they are having it easy down the right wing.

[Kyle]

Better first half from Le Frog, don't agree with the pundits that we've been alright. It was France vs Defence for the last half an hour.

[MTVN]

There always seems to be a real reluctance to criticise any player/team in women's football but England have been crap

[MTVN]

Ref!!! The French are throwing elbows!!!

[Kyle]

Should have been off.

I'd like to see the challenge that brought Houghton down aswell.

[Kyle]

She's got a right hoof on her that Le Sommer, need to stop backing off her.

[MTVN]

Credit to the woman on the receiving end though, don't think many in the men's game would have jumped up that quickly and made no fuss. Although the lack of any card shows you why..

[Kyle]

Yep, puts people like Danni Alves and Suarez to shame.

[Kyle]

Has the Canadian government paid for these fans to turn up or something? Even the French fans all look like they wanna hang themselves.

[Kyle]

That Lavogez looks a bit tidy..er...if you know what I mean :creep:

[MTVN]

Still not convinced by the credit being given to England, however strong France are we haven't looked like scoring all game and could have lost by more, France have never had to step it up a gear

[MTVN]

That Lavogez looks a bit tidy..er...if you know what I mean :creep:

A good first touch you mean?

[Kyle]

Sums up Aluko for me in this game, I know the co-commentator has just had an orgasm over her but I've not seen it, the ball has bounced off her all game and her ball control has been diabolical. :shrug:

[Kyle]

A good first touch you mean?

I'd love to find out :smug:

[MTVN]

"They haven't been allowed to play by England", nah they've just barely needed to play

[Kyle]

'Lacked anything going forward really'

That's exactly the best way to sum up that game from our perspective.

[MTVN]

C'mon England!!!!

[Shaun]

well we're screwed with that Colombia result tbh

[MTVN]

pretty much unless we win both games

Shows that losing 1-0 against France was not the great result it was touted as

[Kyle]

Need to beat these Dorito munchers come on ffs.

[MTVN]

After me now

http://www.independent.co.uk/incoming/article9791260.ece/alternates/w620/Kickstarter_Mike%20Bassett2.jpg

"We're better than the Mexicans. We're better than the Mexicans".

[Kyle]

Unlucky Aluko, still think you don't bring anything to the team other than running about like an headless chicken but good effort.

[Kyle]

Wish Danny Murphy was on at half time.

[Locke.]

Not creating enough really, and when they have the finishing has been poor. Mexico not up to much though, the breakthrough should come soon

[MTVN]

The punditry at this WC has been terrible lets be honest

[Kyle]

Are Talksport covering this game?

[MTVN]

Dont think so, 5 live seem to be though

[Kyle]

Chuffin hell seen that Columbian handball?

[Kyle]

Dont think so, 5 live seem to be though

Yeh they mentioned it during the Ireland Scotland game earlier but I forgot, should give it a shot it can't be any worse.

[Kyle]

She is a liability ffs

[Kyle]

Hope it's nowt serious for Rafferty.

[Kyle]

Yesssssssss kirby you beautiful little fat pink nintendo character get in yassssss!!!!!!

[MTVN]

Kirby!!!!!!!!!

[Shaun]

:clap1:

(this game's been more entertaining than any England's mens game since 2010)

[Kyle]

Aluko wants fetching off

[Kyle]

13 and a bit thousand, that's better than Barnsley's gates

[Shaun]

Kirby not being a foot taller :fist:

[Kyle]

Seeing Greenwood sprinting across the turf with her tits rattling is seriously stirring something within my loins.

[Kyle]

She's not half bad that mexican keeper. Couple of good saves.

[Kyle]

Might need a wet flannel

[Shaun]

:flutter:

[Kyle]

CARNEY YESSSSSS

We look a completely different team since we scored, pressure off.

[MTVN]

We're gonna win the World Cup!!!

[Kyle]

Kirby for man of the match

Greenwood for woodie of the match

[Kyle]

Bardley at fault for both England's goals conceded so far.

[MTVN]

Oh dear

[Kyle]

Nice result, HMS piss the cup still on course.

[MTVN]

Not too convincing, Colombia will be harder

[Kyle]

I find your lack of faith disturbing, you got some Scottish in your bloodline MTVN?

[MTVN]

I find that offensive

[Kyle]

That's the spirit!

[Novo]

that Greenwood is decent at football and in looks but Toni has that slaggy look about her though doesn't she and her ass is moulded from the heavens

[Shaun]

fgs Sanderson!!!!!

[MTVN]

Ingerland!!!!!!!!

[BBfanUSA]

Australia beat Brazil yesterday.

Really surprising that both Sweden and Brazil fell, hopefully the Yankees don't suffer the same fate tonight against Colombia

[Shaun]

HAVE THAT YOU NORWEGIAN BASTARDS :fist:

[Shaun]

Lucy Bronze take a bow :clap1: :clap1: :clap1:

[Shaun]

The home crowd booing our timewasting tactics :fan: they'll be booing even more when we coast through to the semis.

[Mokka]

The home crowd booing our timewasting tactics :fan: they'll be booing even more when we coast through to the semis.

:suspect:

You have to admit standing on the sidelines clutching the stomach was weak

[Shaun]

Yeah it was :laugh: but everyone does that at the end of every match if it's a really close win. It sucks if you're a neutral / on the losing team but it'd be foolish to pass around and try to play normal football.

[Mokka]

Yeah it was :laugh: but everyone does that at the end of every match if it's a really close win. It sucks if you're a neutral / on the losing team but it'd be foolish to pass around and try to play normal football.

Looking forward to Saturday's match now .... Wait for the crowd boos then :smug:

[BBfanUSA]

I remember when Brazil timewasted in the last WC in a match vs USA. The ref added like 5 minutes in AET and then Wambach tied the game with less than a minute left.

England better be careful if they do that again

[BBfanUSA]

Wambach and Morgan are in the US 11. Anthems are underway right now. Game is on BBC 2

[Mokka]

Wambach and Morgan are in the US 11. Anthems are underway right now. Game is ont BBC 2

I'm watching... But cheering for Columbia ... :hehe:

[Shaun]

yeah the selfish in me wants USA out so we can beat Colombia again in the future if need be :p

[Mokka]

yeah the selfish in me wants USA out so we can beat Colombia again in the future if need be :p

Don't worry Shaun... Your team won't get to play either :pat:

[Mokka]

Holy FIFA... Columbia on their third goal keep
Womback misses...

I was losing it for a sec there :omgno:

[Shaun]

dramz everywhere

[Shaun]

oh... drama over :( what was that keeping...

[Mokka]

oh... drama over :( what was that keeping...

I think Columbia has been fatally wounded with that last red card

[BBfanUSA]

2nd half has gone way better other than a completely missed Wambach PK.

Colombia Keeper got a red and Morgan just scored.

[Mokka]

2nd half has gone way better other than a completely missed Wambach PK.

Colombia Keeper got a red and Morgan just scored.

Yeah we saw :idc:

[BBfanUSA]

I really hate Women's South American Teams, they flop harder than a fish.

Outside of that Rapinoe Foul just now

[BBfanUSA]

Another Penalty kick,

Could be it, I think Morgan's taking this one

[BBfanUSA]

Lloyd just showed Wambach how to kick a penalty

[Mokka]

well that's the game done then...

Columbia can't recover from this. A rookie keeper and down a man, taking penalties rt and left

[BBfanUSA]

Wambach off and Morgan Brian on.

[BBfanUSA]

First two Quarterfinal Matches today.

Germany and France is on in the 2nd half, France leads 1-0

USA and China are in the other match today, winner of these games will face each other in the semifinals.

[Shaun]

This'd be a pretty big upset and leave the competition wide open if it stays like this.

[BBfanUSA]

Not really, France made the 2011 semis before losing to the States. Germany lost to Japan as well in the KOs.

[Shaun]

Really harsh penalty decision :/

[BBfanUSA]

PK for Germany

[BBfanUSA]

Kinda surprising that if the result stays that we'll have our first AET game in the tournament

[BBfanUSA]

Good eye by the referee,

shouldn't that be a yellow?

[Shaun]

yeah that French dive was disgusting

[BBfanUSA]

Starting USA 11 doesn't include Wambach. Shocking

11: Solo, Klingenberg, Sauerbrunn, Johnston, Krieger; Heath, Brian, Lloyd, O'Hara; Rodriguez, Morgan.

[Shaun]

Penalties!!!!!!!!

[Shaun]

oh France. :omgno: such flops

[BBfanUSA]

Looks like Edmonton is hosting a pro-American crowd

Poor France, the girl who had her kick blocked must be devastated.

[Mokka]

China's keeper :love:

But China seemed to lose focus towards the end of the first half...
And The US have had their chances, but very surprisingly not going all the way with them

Overall, the US look a little sloppier than last game I watched with them, and China look like the same team Canada played at the off

[BBfanUSA]

I think Wambach should be subbed on for the 2nd half.

I keep mistaking China's Keeper for Solo. Similar Hairstyles and she wears a Black kit similar to Solo's away kit

[Mokka]

I think Wambach should be subbed on for the 2nd half.

I keep mistaking China's Keeper for Solo. Similar Hairstyles and she wears a Black kit similar to Solo's away kit

Why is Wambach on the bench... Are they hoping to wear China down before sending her in? Or is something preventing her from play

[BBfanUSA]

I think it's just age. She's about 34 or 35. This is her last WC.

LLOYD get in!

[Mokka]

I think it's just age. She's about 34 or 35. This is her last WC.

LLOYD get in!

China need to step it up now

[BBfanUSA]

Abby Wambach demanded a goal within the first 10 minutes of the half.

She got one.

Abby would be a great manager imo.

[BBfanUSA]

Let's not screw that up again

[Mokka]

Abby Wambach demanded a goal within the first 10 minutes of the half.

She got one.

Abby would be a great manager imo.

I had no idea Rapinoe was suspended... I was wondering where she went

[BBfanUSA]

I had no idea Rapinoe was suspended... I was wondering where she went

Yeah, both Rapinoe and Holliday accumulated yellow card suspensions.

[BBfanUSA]

ALLLLLmost 2-0

[Shaun]

I don't this game's on TV over here :/

[Mokka]

ALLLLLmost 2-0

Ohhhhh Morgan coming off

[BBfanUSA]

I don't this game's on TV over here :/

BBC Two maybe?

[Mokka]

here comes Abby

[BBfanUSA]

I just realized that Sydney Leroux isn't in the game.

[BBfanUSA]

ANd that's the final whistle, the Yanks and Germans will face off in the first semifinal

[Mokka]

i can't find Can vs UK in my Schedule... :eek:
What time do they play????

[Mokka]

i can't find Can vs UK in my Schedule... :eek:
What time do they play????

:omgno: it's at the same time as my Saskatchewan Roughriders season opener game... I don't know which to watch :facepalm:

[Raph]

Japan wins their 5th one-goal game in row, haha so classic Japan. Japans defense is crazy good, they're definitely the team to watch. It won't be easy for the UK or Canada against them.

[Mokka]

Japan wins their 5th one-goal game in row, haha so classic Japan. Japans defense is crazy good, they're definitely the team to watch. It won't be easy for the UK or Canada against them.

I turned it on just in time to see that goal ...

I was all prepared to see a shoot out... Good effort by Australia though... They almost held them off

[Ninastar]

ugh japan go away!!!!!!!!

[Raph]

I turned it on just in time to see that goal ...

I was all prepared to see a shoot out... Good effort by Australia though... They almost held them off

Yeah that's Japans strategy always to tire out the other team and just scrape in one goal near the end. Japan had such a solid defense and their possession is great too, was around 68% this game I think. Australia's best bet would've been 0-0 and penalties but Japan wore them out by the end.

[Mokka]

ugh japan go away!!!!!!!!

It's ok Chaos... Canada will put them in their place, just as soon as we are done with the UK :fan:

[Raph]

It's ok Chaos... Canada will put them in their place, just as soon as we are done with the UK :fan:

Haha we'll see! Japan is a tough team to beat. They won the last World Cup too!

[Mokka]

Haha we'll see! Japan is a tough team to beat. They won the last World Cup too!

I am a "behind my team all the way until the bitter end" kinda girl Raph, and you can't tell me otherwise

Plus, there is a lot to be said for home field advantage (I hope:fc: )

[Raph]

I am a "behind my team all the way until the bitter end" kinda girl Raph, and you can't tell me otherwise

I'm confused, I never said for you to support Japan? I'm just looking at it objectively. But totally! Canada being the home team having the supporters and just generally being more acclaimed to the environment will definitely be a plus to them. All they need to do is come up with a viable strategy to compete with Japan's barrier of a defense.

It was my cheeky way of saying I know other teams are prob better, but I got to be a Believer in my Canadian Ladies :woot: :woot:

[Raph]

Ah I see, totally get that! You know BBCanada has definitely given me some weird attachment/love for Canada. Nova Scotia represent :D

[Mokka]

Ah I see, totally get that! You know BBCanada has definitely given me some weird attachment/love for Canada. Nova Scotia represent :D

So that means you will cheer for Canada over England today :fan:

[Raph]

So that means you will cheer for Canada over England today :fan:

Yeah I will. I'm all about Wales and not England anyways ;) but I am rooting for Japan overall, I like their style.

[Raph]

I kinda want the UK to win though just cause itd make me sad if Japan was the reason Canada was eliminated, or vice versa.

[Mokka]

I kinda want the UK to win though just cause itd make me sad if Japan was the reason Canada was eliminated, or vice versa.

I always say UK when I mean England and visa versa...
But it would be nice having someone else cheering for Canada :flutter:

[Mokka]

OMG that crowd :flutter:

England vs Canada in 7 min... Who's watching with me ?

[Mokka]

:facepalm:

We got so beat on that play ...

[Mokka]

2nd half coming up

England 2 Canada 1

[Mokka]

England's keeper :sad:

Her eye looked like it was going to seal shut.

Could be good news for Canada :fc:

[Mokka]

well, it was a great, hard fought game ...

Caitlin I hope you fell asleep watching and are having sweet visions of women's Soccer Locker Rooms dancing in your head...

Go get Japan now England!!! I will root for you in that game :thumbs:

[Jack_]

Is Canada's coach/manager whatever a Geordie?!?!?! :joker:

Caught the last 20 mins or so (haven't watched any so far but have heard England are doing well so thought I'd tune in), yay :D

[BBfanUSA]

I know Canada's Manager is English.

USA's is English as well but she moved to the states with her dad when she was 8 or 9. She's a US citizen though

[Mokka]

I know Canada's Manager is English.

USA's is English as well but she moved to the states with her dad when she was 8 or 9. She's a US citizen though

It's a relatively new sport for Canada, meaning the roots are not deep yet, so it doesn't surprise me that our manager is British... He is also new to us in the last year I believe

[MTVN]

Bloody hell we're actually gonna do well in this thing

[BBfanUSA]

The first Semi is on right now, great back and forth battle

[Shaun]

hope we survive against Japan, not here for another team of constant 1-0 wins getting the trophy

[BBfanUSA]

Ouch, Popp and Brian bonked heads.

Won't be surprised if they both have concussions.

EDIT: Popp may have just busted her head, Brian looks to have a concussion

[BBfanUSA]

And that's it, America punches its ticket to the final.

[MTVN]

C'mon you ****ing Lionesses!!!!!!

[MTVN]

Absolute rubbish referee

[MTVN]

Ohh you beauty whistle-happy referee

[Black Dagger]

:joker:

[Shaun]

really surprised England are so in contention tbh, every time I've seen Japan they've been doing a 2010 Spain job with the crazy possessive 1-0 wins. Amazed we've scored, especially given Williams' nerves before it.

[MTVN]

Rubbish did the ref see a little touch on the ankle, she just saw her fall down. Still think neither was a penalty

[Ninastar]

[Ninastar]

[Shaun]

[MTVN]

i hope a ****ing nuclear bomb explodes and kills off everyone in japan

Not another one D:

But nah can't really blame Japan I guess but bit annoying seeing them all celebrating madly after we were on top and they had expected to stroll this game :fist:

USA for the win

how is such a terrible actor such a lovely bloke :love:

It's very frustrating that the third-place playoff is what the actual finalists should have been but oh well. England have done amazingly :love:

[BBfanUSA]

Wow, I was at work so I missed the game. I feel sorry for you guys about the result.

Pretty interesting that it's USA and Japan again. 4 years ago Japan capitalized on USA's failed opportunities and won on PKs when it could've been 4-0 USA very early on in the final.

I don't think we'll see the same outcome this time around. America's Back 4 and Solo together are a brick wall (512 Minutes without a goal allowed, which was in the first game). I think the US wins 2 (Lloyd, Wambach) - 0

[BBfanUSA]

The final is today,

England won the third place game by the way

[Shaun]

****ing wow.

[Mokka]

****ing wow.

Right?

I get home, turn on the game 2-0

I go to the washroom and change clothes 4-0

Did I miss the whole game in missing the first 15 min ??

[Shaun]

:laugh: it would seem so

I only saw the last two goals but that was enough 'crazy' for me :omgno:

[Macie Lightfoot]

Carli Lloyd scoring a hat trick in 16 minutes FROM THE MIDFIELD LINE <3

[Shaun]

hang on a minute!!!!!

[Mokka]

hang on a minute!!!!!

Perched for a Japanese comeback ?!

[Ninastar]

This is why I'm such a massive dyke

[Ross.]

This is why I'm such a massive dyke

:joker:

[Mokka]

This is why I'm such a massive dyke

LMAO!!!

See, I guess this is why I am not :hehe: but all the more power to you

[Shaun]

well you can't say it's boring

[Macie Lightfoot]

Tobin Heath scoring <3 #hometownhero

4 of the 5 USA goals have been scored by NJ girls

[Ninastar]

I want Hope to sit on my face

[Raph]

i hope a ****ing nuclear bomb explodes and kills off everyone in japan

This is the most disgusting thing i've ever seen you say Caitlin, and you know I think super highly of you.

[Raph]

What a game! The US played so well, and so well deserved. Japan played so well too in the second half. What a final!

[Raph]

Yeah you know I love ya Caitlin, but please never say stuff like that :(

[Ninastar]

It's a joke, Id say the same about america If they beat England like that. Don't take anything I say seriously. lol
