The concept of VAR is great. The implementation of VAR sucks. I don't get it. That PK was OBVIOUSLY outside of the box. This kind of shit is going to bring out the conspiracy people.  Hell, I may be one of them now.

This is my thing now. You can basically make shit up all the time now. France heading for a draw, misses a PK? VAR - keeper off line, rekick. It's pretty shady if you ask me.

Yeah. You could shrug shit off before--"well, it's a pen but it would be harsh" or "view may have been obstructed". Now it seems like pure bullshit.

You come out for the ball, you best not miss.

 

Has anyone mentioned fuck Canada?

I take it that you're not a fan of the CWNT.  

[utee94 15,807]

How can anyone hate Canada?  That's like hating... toast.  Or... the color beige.  

I mean, you might not LOVE toast or the color beige, but HATING them?  

[Captain Ron 12,868]

Huge goal for Cameroon. Might push them through to the KO stage.

The C double-UNT? 

[Captain Ron 12,868]

If my math is right - they are through. That puts them to 3 pts (-2 GD, 3 goals scored). They are ahead of Argentina (2 pts) and Nigeria (3 pts, -2 GD, 2 goals scored).

That also eliminates Argentina.

The Thailand-Chile game determines the last 3rd place team:

Thailand win - Nigeria is through (Thailand isn't making up -17 GD)

Chile win - Will need to win by 3 goals to move ahead of Nigeria.

Draw - Nigeria though.

Easier:

Chile win by 3 goals - they advance

Otherwise Nigeria advances

They are in.

Oh Canada - their players bitch too much about getting their ass kicked by the USA. Maybe it's just Sinclair and the older gen of players, but meh.

Chile knocks out Nigeria if they beat Thailand by at least 3

i'd like to give jill ellis a cycle with the USMNT to see what she can do.

There is bit of a difference in the quality of the player pools relative to their competition

They are losing to France or England in the Round of 16 regardless if whether those two live or die

Agreed. I was gonna (jokingly) post that we should throw today, but Canada - Germany - Netherlands is a pretty rugged knockout stage. Gotta beat France at some point, might as well get it over with.

I like how the ref wasted about 45 seconds to tell two players "enough" (with spittle dribbling down her chin) and then getting into place before blowing the whistle to start again...

...and then allowed Cameroon's celebration & "player exhaustion" to run off 2 minutes or so and then she just blew the whistle that the game was over.

WTF?!?!

I could see in the NFL the refs blowing the game over with 45 seconds left after Team A scoring a go-ahead touchdown because there was just too much celebration to finish the game.

Wow!

[alincoln 2,371]

Ertz is out this game.  The US media fawns all over her and she provides leadership on the field and a threat from set pieces but she seems to give away the ball too cheaply in MF and is prone to a bad tackle imo.

I still don't understand how the "Hand over your heart for the 'Pledge of Allegiance'" got transferred to the national anthem after 9/11.

It's like the country if filled with imbeciles who can't remember the things were done 2 weeks before.

Very "1984".

Huh? Hand over heart for the anthem existed long before 9/11.

[ztejas 43,411]

This team is a well oiled machine. I need to make it a priority to watch every game from here on out because we might not see a women's team like this again for a long, long time.

Never saw it before then. 

You're "un-American if you don't do it" since then.

"Stand up" and "Hat off" were the only "requirements" in my USA pre-9/11.

Also, got heckled at a Yankee's game in ~2010 for not standing during the 7th Inning Stretch for "America The Beautiful"... which is not our national anthem.

Same. 

She was my #1 and her fiancée was my #2.

But both have gotten harder looking, which happen when women age and stay in great shape. (And don't get insane facial fillers like Allie Long.)

I like that the play together for the Orlando PRIDE.

Two hits:
