Spoiler alert- USA vs. Canada soccer

[cardfan]

very physical match so far.

US controlling possession. 11th min 0-0

 

[cardfan]

and more of the fouls have been called on Canada

 

[cardfan]

corner kick for US on bad call, but USA doesn't score.

I just love watching Morgan run, she is soooo fast.

 

[cardfan]

omg, what an awful call on USA D.

 

[cardfan]

Canada doing a lot of holding and grabbing.....

 

[cardfan]

damn, Sinclair scores for CDN

22 min

 

[cardfan]

through our D like butter

Canada doing a lot of holding and grabbing.....

Ha. Nice way to take the attention off yourself by pointing out how the other team is engaging in 'illegal' behavior.

to clarify, I'm talking about the Can coach, not you, cardfan.

yeah, got that and I agree!

 

[cardfan]

CDN playing more inspired after they scored. USA on their heels more and not controlling possession. Need to settle down.

 

[cardfan]

foul on Wambach on header

 

[cardfan]

damn. ugh so close. Cross from Morgan and missed header by Wambach

 

[UConnCat]

Canada is not playing mistake-free. Come on USA.

 

[cardfan]

yeah, we need to capitalize! Cheney rushed that shot.

halftime 1-0

 

[caravaggio]

this is too nerve-wracking! I cannot watch. The prospect of the US losing to Canada at the Olympics is so much worse than my last panic (Maroney falling on her vault--which of course did end up happening!)

 

[VAMike23]

Might be good that I can't see this match............

 

[cardfan]

It was a great goal by Sinclair in the first half. She is an amazing player. We need our bigs, Abby and Morgan to attack!! Play more possession and not go for long balls, which we did vs. Japan in WC.

 

[cardfan]

2n half underway. Stats not on USA side when down at half.

 

[cardfan]

chance here! Come on

 

[cardfan]

ugh, that should have been corner kick!!

Thoughts on 2nd: get game back as did in last 5 mins of 1st. Keep @AbbyWambach high near goal. Get @HeatherOReilly in to cause chaos

miss by Abby

 

[cardfan]

geez, they take down Abby multiple times, no call

 

[caravaggio]

GOAL!!!!! Thank goodness~!~~

By Rapinoe.

 

[cardfan]

AWESOME goal by Rapinoe!! I thought it was own goal by CDN, but it was a bend it ball from corner!

1-1 59th
