2019 Women's World Cup

[CyArob]

The US has played and beaten Sweden in this WC in the group stage. It was a tough game. I'd put Netherlands above Sweden but below France and England

I don't think all of the starters for either team played in the previous US-Sweden game.

To those more knowledgeable, do the Netherlands or Sweden present as big of a challenge as England and France?

France and England are #4 & #3 in the FIFA rankings. Netherlands and Sweden are #8 & #9.

For whatever those rankings are worth.

And the Netherlands are the current European Champion, fwiw. Personally, I think the Dutch would be a tougher match-up than the Swedes. Either way, bring it on!

England was the 2nd best team in the tournament next to us. They’ve been impressive. They were the only team I thought could beat us.

I instantly asked my friend "did she just sip a tea cup?"

Historically great celebration given their coach's ridiculous cheating claims.

Probably why she's my favorite women's player, and perhaps my second favorite American player only behind Il Duce.

Beating England in the month of July, what a great combo.

The angle of the picture makes it appear that she is celebrating using a favorite pastime now legal in Colorado (and many other states).

But the tea reference is great....

She isn't unpleasant to look at.

Get Netherlands in the final as they beat Sweden 1-0 in Extra Time.

 

[SC Cy]

Pretty pumped to see the Netherlands in the finals! This Dutch guy is still an American and pulling for the ol' Red, White, and Blue!!

 

[brianhos]

Megan playing today?

 

[shagcarpetjesus]

Rapinoe and Lavelle both starting.

 

[Rabbuk]

Netherland with some questionable tackles early on.

 

[Colorado]

Yellow card early will change how Spitse plays

 

[discydisc]

Some of these no calls have been brutal
