Women’s WC of soccer 2023

The first article I read about this tournament said US was in danger of its dominance ending. Did It ever! Much earlier than anticipated

Didn’t they also refuse to go to the White House when they won the last time? History will be a lot kinder to them than the dickheads who voted for Trump, in any case.

Yes, that was right.

Australia 1-0 over Denmark after 27 minutes! :cheer: Let's go Tillies!

Because gasp they didn't show the proper amoin of respect to the national anthem by holding hand over heart and singing. If sports aren't political, why are the national anthems played all the time?

Which was not always part of games or events.

I"d post a link about it, but don't want to distract from the world competitions.

Trump was already making fun of them, specifically Megan Rapinoe, for the loss. I knew the haters would have their knives out for her. She fought hard for fair pay.

Well, I'm sorry too, but they have not played well the whole tournament--in fact, this last was their best game--the passing was much better, but each and everyone of the US players needs to be able to get the ball in the back of the net on PKs.
 
I have no problem with the women who fought hard for equal pay. I do have a problem with the vast majority of them disrespecting the flag and national anthem of their country. Beyond that, there seems to be a level of arrogance that rested more on past successes than current play. They made it hard to root for them and I'm perfectly fine with them losing.

I thought there were fine during the anthem. I do think they were too cocky in the last World Cup but that has a way of coming back on you in the long run. The team seems a mix of really old and really young. Maybe it is time to let the young take the reins and take their licks. Plus it isn't one dominant team anymore and that makes for better competition. Now I wish I could enjoy the game. It puts me to sleep. I came to it too late.

Can someone tell me why the worst Americans on here are cheering against their own team?

That’s like being happy that a skater falls on a jump. Pretty low class behaviour, but in character I guess. :)

Good to know you have no remorse also for your vote for a seditious fraudster. :)
 
I watched the Nigeria vs England game yesterday - super close! Was hoping Nigeria could eke out a win but they should be super proud of their effort.

Lauren James must be very relieved that England made it through extra time with only 10 players.

First time I’m following the world cup due to all the fanfare in Australia, but it’s been great watching the Matildas and here’s hoping they do well against France.-
