That was a boring game. The team needs more Julie Johnstons though.

Nobody in Edmonton gives a shit about Women's soccer apparently, and of course it is 0-0 at the half.
Oh soccer....

These are fun games. The only thing not fun is the annoying U.S. announcers. They are so smug and full of themselves. Like as soon the U.S. scores, the next smug remark is "the U.S. needs to not let up and score MOAR GOALS!!!!!" No shit, the team ain't going to stop plyaing now. Stupid, just shut up and call the damn game.

Last game Ali Krieger really caught my eye for obvious reasons. This team has quite a few babes.

She is easily identifiable by her concussion headband in games.

Admittedly been focusing in on her more too. She's a babe.

And that Amy Rodriguez has that cute tomboyish look.

Press really does have a model's face and body though.

The Brits do it best. Loved them calling the USMNT games during their WC run. I love it when announcers really get into games and are more like fans than anything.

Oh yeah. It's a lot more fun watching British broadcasts. Especially if you watch them in the UK.

Wow totally missed that PK. The ladies need to get some kind of attack going though.

I saw a tweet after the big win tonight that went something like this:

Pretty sure this sums up the USA vs Germany game.

I wouldn't be upset if Alex Morgan sat out the final. Also the commentators are driving me bonkers. Any time Morgan missed a shot that she should have passed instead the commentator would mention her injury and how a healthy Alex Morgan could have scored from any angle. If she would have passed the ball from time to time the US may have been up by more.

I watched every game of the WWC 4 years ago all the way to the final when we lost to Japan on PKs. I want nothing more than a rematch to see who the better team really is! USA baby!!!

Dude...she missed like 8 months or w/e it was. Skillz go down the drain with that much time off. She actually looked a lot better last night than the games prior because she wasn't over thinking too much. She was one touch shooting.

I think she's about there between when to shoot and when to pass. And, I have seen her make those shots before in the WC and Olympics.

Besides, what she does do, if anything, is draw lots of attention from opposing teams which opens up things for the other players.

That said, Lloyd has been our best offensive player this entire WC I think.

She is talented and hot. My only dislike with her is she is dating Zach Ertz from the Eagles (n)

I understand that, I appreciate that she is getting in position to make plays but am frustrated she's not putting it in the net. She's doing everything but finishing right now. I'm no coach but perhaps she might be a good first sub in, if she's not in 100% soccer shape yet.

hah. Sans Lloyd, pretty much the entire team is having issues finishing. Though O'Hara had a beauty of a finish on the setup from Lloyd.

Hopefully it comes together Sunday and those opportunities are blown but finished and they make it rain on Japan or England.

Did I use make it rain correctly? I might be too white to say it ever and if so I apologize.
