Then another player was wide open directly in front of the net who could have blocked the ball down and walked it into the net, letting it deflect off her shin wide with less than 2 minutes left in the 2nd extra time.

      Lots of running up and down the field, very few actual shots, even fewer scoring opportunities. Germany did not score in the run of play nor from set pieces either, France flubbed several chances and had a hard-luck bad bounce.
      She turned into it. Definitely a handle.

        China's keeper playing WAY off her line, and we still can't get it in. You get the feeling it's going to be this one little counter-attack and China will win 1-0.

                Am I wrong to think the offense looked better- in spite of the fewer goals. It was more about poor last touches than anything else, to me.

                  Also very different without Rapinoe and Wambach.

                    Offense looked much better. China also packed the box which made it impossible to create anything a lot of the time, and they were still getting decent shots off.

                        I would so love an England vs. United States final. Blatter just might get that heart attack we've all been rooting for.

                            Not ducks, they're loons .

                            Pretty even game, except for a central defender kicking the turf and a marker sneaking a peek at the corner kick at the wrong instant.

                              The NY/NY game is interesting.

                              Corporate Whores dominating in the second over the City Farm Club With A Narrow Field.

                              At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
