[malaise]

Corner USA

[MineralMan]

1. Spoilers, please...

[malaise]

2. Yes indeed

USA should have scored already

[malaise]

6. Spoiler

Brilliant header

1-0 USA

[SouthernProgressive]

4. Is there a link to watch it?

[malaise]

7. I'm watching on local TV but here is live typed coverage

[Takket]

5. Rapinoe on the bench? WTF?

[malaise]

8. Odd - spoiler

USA is playing beautiful football - England in a daze - first time they are behind in this WC

[malaise]

9. Another spoiler

1-1

Let's see if they keep her on the bench for much longer

[malaise]

12. She took no part in the warm up

Coms are suggesting that she may have an injury - well it's either that or someone gave orders to bench her.
Truth will out.

[demmiblue]

15. A pulled hamstring is what they are saying at half-time.

[malaise]

10. Another Spoiler

Happy Birthday to Alex Morgan with her sixth goal of the tournament
2-1 USA

[demmiblue]

11. What an exciting game!

[malaise]

13. I'm lovin'it

[malaise]

14. Half time Spoiler

2-1 USA.

No team has ever come from behind in the 2nd half of a women's World Cup

[nocoincidences]

16. Alex Morgan

mimes drinking tea with her pinkie up, after her goal.

[malaise]

17. It's her birthday today

[demmiblue]

18. That last near goal.

[malaise]

19. Spoiler

2-2

White looks offside to me.

I was right - no goal

2-1

[demmiblue]

21. Woot, no goal!

[demmiblue]

20. Nooooooo!

[malaise]

22. White was offside

[3catwoman3]

23. Whew!

It’s gonna be a long 19 minutes + stoppage.

[malaise]

24. One more USA goal will settle this

[3catwoman3]

31. My favorite goal margin is to be up by 3.

1 is never enough unless is it the last 10 seconds of the game, and the ball is all the way down at the other end of the field.

2 is OK, but still can be turned over.

3 is pretty comfortable, and more than 3 starts to feel like a blow out.

[Blue_Tires]

25. I was lowkey cheering for England to win the whole thing

until Neville decided to be such an asshole after the Cameroon game...

[malaise]

26. I was a neutral until Megan Rapinoe

took on the Con

[Blue_Tires]

62. I really hope Trump is fucking ignorant enough

to actually go to war with Megan Freaking Rapinoe because right now she's the Idol of suburban white women (and rightfully so) and I'd love nothing more than for something to erode that base of Trump's support...

[malaise]

63. I am living for that moment

Trust me - please proceed King of Cons

[Takket]

27. The England player whiffing on the pass

And the trying to cover it up by acting she had been shot was amusing.

[malaise]

28. There was no foul

BS

[malaise]

29. Where was the foul?

Penalty

[Takket]

32. Not a single angle showed contact. NONE

[Takket]

34. SAVE!!!! Haha. Quick ref, invent another penalty!

[Takket]

30. Bullshit!

[malaise]

33. Spoiler

Saved

[3catwoman3]

35. Again, WHEW!!!

I hate PKs.

And I do NOT want this to go to OT and PKs.

[demmiblue]

36. I didn't see the contact, but then again my eyes aren't what they used to be. Lol.

SAVE! Holy shite!

[malaise]

37. Neither are mine

but I saw no contact

[malaise]

38. Red card now for England player

Bye bye Bryght - down to 10

WCExit

[demmiblue]

39. OMG, I am going to have a heart attack!

[Takket]

40. And now England is shorthanded the rest of the game

Red card

[3catwoman3]

41. A timely red card.

I’ll take it.

[malaise]

42. WCExit

[demmiblue]

43. Damn, seven minutes of stoppage time.

[Ilsa]

44. My older DirecTv box won't pick up the game.

I'm watching it off the newer Genie box in a bedroom, not in my favorite chair.

[malaise]

46. At least you can see it

Nearly over

[3catwoman3]

45. It always makes me nervous when they play back to the goalie.

DON’T DO THAT!!!

[Takket]

47. Did you see that English woman screw up the throw in?

Knocked that ball out of her own hands with her hair bun LOL

[malaise]

48. At the freaking world cup

I did laugh

About a minute left.

[malaise]

49. Spoiler

Done and dusted

[demmiblue]

50. WOOT!

[malaise]

53. Sweet

WCexit

[Takket]

51. On to the finals!

[beveeheart]

52. And the final score is????

[malaise]

54. WCexit

2-1

[3catwoman3]

55. Awri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ght!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My heart rate can calm down now.

[malaise]

56. Hehehehe

It was over with that saved penalty - no team that fouls a throw in should make a final - that's amateur shit.

[3catwoman3]

57. I do love the graphics for this World Cup.

Eom

[malaise]

58. Agree

Possession means nothing if you're not scoring goals

[demmiblue]

59. I like when they scan the crowd and focus in on the young girls...

watching their sheroes.

[mcar]

60. An amazing match!

Well done, US women! On to the finals.

[spanone]

61. Great Game!!!

[demmiblue]

64. Just a hat tip to Lavelle:
