OT: Olympics: U.S. Women’s Soccer

Sam Mewis from Williams ties it. Then Williams takes the lead.

Well, now Netherlands up 1-0. World class goal in 19' by Miedema

With how Team USA has been playing and the bad luck on the two missed goals earlier in this game, I'm surprised Team USA scored two consecutive goals to take the lead at the 30 minute mark.

Pleasantly I hope.
 
USA had a couple of opportunities to take the ball away from the Netherlands player, didn't happen and Netherlands ties the game. It was a good play by the Netherlands
 
Yikes, that ball has to be saved 10 times out of 10.

This team continues to float between good and mediocre, which happens when you don’t play your best lineups. Too many Team USA coaches try to do too much instead of just playing their best players.
 
Miedema is a scoring machine, quick feet ties it up.
 
Just like the First Goal USA Scored where they were off sides, they were one step offsides now and the third goal disallowed.
 
USA better start playing better defense otherwise they'll lose this game by more then one goal.
 
100 minutes in. Yes, they're tied at 2-2.
There's no golden goal. The way the USA defense is playing, I don't know if we can hold off the Nederlands for another 20 minutes, to get to the shootout.
 
First 15 minute period of overtime is over.
I hope we score in the second overtime.
My nerves my not be able to take a penalty kick shootout.
 
Have any of USA's Corner Kicks had any reasonable chance of getting a shot/header on Goal?
Tie Game in Double OT.
 
That's the 3rd Goal disallowed by Off Sides.
 
4th Goal disallowed by Off Sides. Dutch defender fell and that's the only reason why the call was offsides. Defender fell trying to stop USA from getting the ball. Might be the correct call, but it shouldn't be.
 
5 minutes away from penalty shootout.
Compelling drama. Can't miss tv.
 
4 perfect penalty shots by the US of A.
2 great saves by the goalkeeper.
Didn't need the 5th penalty kick.
 
I really have mixed feelings on this game. IMO the Netherlands has the better team, but at the same time, but how do you take into the consideration of four USA goals disallowed by Off Sides. A foot difference and USA scores a couple of goals and easily wins the game. Just like the on ball offense and defense played by the Netherlands. Great goal attending by USA in the Shoot Out the difference in the game.
 
The Dutch deserved to move on.... this is the one that feels like both the teams are deserving. Not sure why they're crying tho.... they're a rising team (younger than us), and with each passing year.... they close the gap against us by a little bit more. Not bad for a team that before 2017 nobody even knew existed.
