Fukk this shyt :beli:

In restrospect (yes it's easy once everything is done), Bergeroo made a mistake when he subbed Thomis. She was running wild on the right wing even though she was not as good in the second half as she was in the first. I'm sure Bergeroo had its reasons but it was obvious we lacked pace and penetration countering. We did have the matchball with Thiney though we should have scored in the first 15 minutes (Nécib first shot should have been at least on target) but we were the underdogs before the match so the loss is somehow logical.

That last penalty kick by France had no power nor intent to score.
She's 21 and inexperienced in the NT. :mjcry: Hopefully this won't haunt her too long :mjcry:.

Miss of the generation breh. All these French players getting old. This is their best shot I think
The new gen is good don't worry. In 4 years, there will be many players aged 30/32 so they won't be too old yet.

fukking Germany...:snoop:


I wanted to see more Necib, she was a fukking Golden Ball candidate for me. :to: (:noah:) fukk...BUT we now see this German side ISN'T as invincible. What I did see is that Germany is susceptible to a mistake on the back....Morgan isn't going screw up open nets like the those two chances France had...

I think with those two opportunities, those France players were gassed. They played one hell of a game. Then to give up a goal in the 83 minute, that would sap all the strength out of you. In the second half of extra time, they were attacking a whole lot better, they just didn't have enough energy to take advantage of those opportunities. The difference in this game I think is that Germany was mentally tougher than France in the closing minutes and PK. I saw the body language of the German and France players on the PK, the Germans look strong while the France team look dejected. In any case, this was a gritty win by Germany.

Interesting....Amy Rodriguez will get the start over Abby in this game. Makes sense since she has fresher legs. I see they're still going with a 4-4-2. Hmm...I think they're wasting their attacking potential with this 4-4-2.

Amy Rodriguez getting the nod:obama:.
No way this game lives up to that France vs. Germany game, Germans havent ever missed a PK:mindblown:. We cant let this game go into extra time. We gotta have the fresher legs vs. Germany

The U.S. are playing a very fluid game so far. Amy has done a great job so far (with the exception of missing a point blank range goal, lol!)
