This soccer forum is certainly focused on men, but I do enjoy the women's team. I saw there is a thread in the women's basketball board, but thought it might be nice to have one here. Mods can delete if inappropriate.
I haven't been too impressed with the women leading up to the Olympics. Not that they haven't looked good, but I didn't see the invincibility that has led everyone to pick them as a lock gold medal team. I think Alex Morgan, in particular, has looked terrible but she started. I didn't get up at 4:30am to watch today, but looks like they got destroyed by Sweden. It looks like Andonovski made a lot of changes, but I guess nothing worked. Sweden is the strongest competition in the group, so they'll probably still move on, but a 3 goal deficit certainly isn't a good start.
