WWC Semi-Finals: Interesting Quarter-Final results. One surprise and one shocker.

USA v England

I get the shock result - Sweden beating Germany - but unsure of the surprise as I thought the other 3 teams were favoured in their quarters.

France had not lost to the USA in their last 3 meetings (2 wins, one draw) and was a favorite to win both that match and the tournament...

NJL (..Sweden had not beaten Germany since 1995. England beat the USA earlier in 2019...)

 

[Lacey]

Yes!! Rapinoe!!

RAPINOE IS A STAR!!!!!!

 

[Coco]

What's this 'spygate' all about?

 

[SHARPIE]

1-1 come on England

USA

 

[Buzz]

Congratulations USA! Well done!

 

[SHARPIE]

Ah well

Alyssa Naeher was a question mark going into this tournament. She should have been the Player of the Match v England. Two memorable saves, especially on the PK, won the match. Outstanding.

NJL (..the match was a great advertisement for the women's game. Fast, physical and intense. …)

 

[Finnice]

Yes!! Rapinoe!!

She is my new idol in so many ways.

 

[Lacey]

Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher was ABSOLUTELY the player of the game in USA victory over England!!!

 

[BaileyCatts]

Go Netherlands.

 

[quartz]

I'm an American of Dutch heritage....hmmm....

USA v The Netherlands in WWC2019 Final Sunday.

If memory serves both teams have given up 3 goals each. It will be interesting.

[Buzz]

Good luck USA!

The Netherlands has already won the infinitely more important Eurovision Song Contest this year so they may as well let the USA win.

 

[Jelly]

GOAL on penalty kick by Rapinoe!!!

 

[Rob]

Pino! But Dutch are playing great especially the goalie. She’s amazing.

 

[Jelly]

Listening to game on car radio, little confused, think that was another US goal, was it Morgan?

 

[skatemomaz]

 

[Jelly]

No, it was Lavelle I think

 

[oleada]

Lavalle’s goal was amazing!

USA

But to give credit the Dutch goalie is incredible!

 

[Rob]

Yeeeessssss!

Best sports team in the US, male or female: gold: USA women’s soccer; silver USA women’s gymnastics; bronze tie between NE Patriots and Golden State Warriors.

Netherlands goalie is best goalie of WC.

 

[SHARPIE]

Congrats USA!

 

[caseyedwards]

Major defeat for Trump

 

[oleada]

I did not realize that this was the Dutch’s second World Cup ever. Really a lot to be proud of!

 

[her grace]

U-S-A! U-S-A!

 

[kittyjake5]
