Nervy moment on a counter by SWE but in the end, they can’t get off a shot.

Crystal Dunn gives up possession damn near every time she has the ball, and she’s consistently out of position on defense. Really surprised we can’t do better at LB. 

SWE has slowed down their press which is slowing down the game a little bit. We’ve controlled the first 30 minutes and I think we probably have a goal in us tonight. We’re gonna be vulnerable to the counter all night as well though.

Yeah, agree we are vulnerable. Dunn needs some damn new cleats. She falls down a lot. 

We are pressing, but as you pointed out, right at their keeper. Who has handled all the shots very well. 

We are doing better on the right for the attack. Morgan has been silent.

Yep, Morgan invisible so far. Smith has been more involved but really offered very little. She lacks confidence and ideas.

Our best bet for a goal will be link up play between Horan and Rodman.

And that’s the half. US in near total control so far.

The confidence and experience of Ertz on the back line is big for us. SWE is going to try to catch us on a counter and it’ll be up to her to stop them. I’m much less convinced about Girma.

Damn good play by Rodman. 

She's so damn good.  Everybody sees it's going to her and is in pursuit and she still blows right by them.

Yep, if I were the Swedes I would keep hammering on the left backs.

As an ex left back who finds these Swedes extremely hot, I concur with this message.

yeah I'm with you there. I may or may not have fallen asleep somewhere in that morass of a first half. 

we are super vulnerable

This. She’s been very dangerous today.

I'm not sure Rodman doesn’t get to that ball on the breakaway after the free kick.

First half was actually pretty solid, maybe you never woke up? Which is fair.

A bright spot for sure. saw they were rubbing her back. Wonder if sicker than they let on. Either way she played very well.

Why was Morgan so far back? That cross should have been hers to slap in. 

Why was everyone so far back. That cross should have been to everyone. 

Nice header ref!

Yeah, I thought so. But the ref is French so there is that. 

The ball was well away and the inside defender did get the ball clear, so I don't think there was enough there to call it.
