Women’s World Cup ‘23 Game Thread (spoilers)

[SoxFanInCali]

Netherlands already up.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

2-0 Dutch already.

 

[Ale Xander]

Dear god
Can’t let that happen

 

[jon abbey]

2-0 Dutch already.

3-0 now

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh no

 

[SoxFanInCali]

4 for the Dutch. Group win is about over. Just advance.

 

[OCST]

So NL have won the group, we advance in the second spot with a win or draw, lose and we’re done. That pretty much it?

Correct.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Yep

 

[swiftaw]

The US seem to be very pedestrian. Portugal seem much quicker when they have the ball.

 

[Ale Xander]

Don’t need this Rose

 

[SoxFanInCali]

And now Lavelle misses the next game, if they advance.

 

[Ale Xander]

Serenity now

seems a bit of a controversial call and not cut and dry yellow

 

[swiftaw]

Smith lucky not to be booked.

 

[Ale Xander]

Lucky not a card there

 

[Ale Xander]

Ooof almost

 

[Silverdude2167]

Who calls the half when a team is on the break, wtf was that?

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Ref blew right in the middle of an attack. Usually give that a chance until the defense breaks it up.

 

[Ale Xander]

Need DiCicco to do some work from upstairs

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Sam Mewis, Mallory Swanson, and Catarina Macario would be welcome sights now.

 

[jon abbey]

Rapinoe coming in.

 

[lars10]

Rapinoe coming in.

Feels like this coach is stuck relying on the vets.. Rapinoe didn’t look good in game one imo… and there’s no real excuse for playing Morgan all three games.

 

[Silverdude2167]

This is the least inspiring USWNT that I have ever watched.

Just because they get paid like the USMNT, doesn't mean they have to play like them.

 

[Ale Xander]

This is an embarrassing offensive effort
Vlat needs to go

PortWNT is kinda playing like the PortMNT too

grrrr

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh ffs

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Can we try not to dribble past 3 players and turn it over, please?

 

[Silverdude2167]

Why have we only made one sub?

 

[Ale Xander]

Retire Megan already

 

[Ale Xander]

Why have we only made one sub?

And the worst one

 

[Ale Xander]

Don’t like this one bit

playing for 0-0 draw

 

[Ale Xander]

Almost dammit

 

[Silverdude2167]

How can you not lay that back...the worst play was the one she chose.

 

[Ale Xander]

Where’s the yellow?

lfg

 

[Ale Xander]

Dammit

 

[Ale Xander]

I’ll be honest, I’m f’ing scared right now

 

[Silverdude2167]

That goalie has to have something broken. That was a blast she took.

 

[Silverdude2167]

I’ll be honest, I’m f’ing scared right now

Terrified

 

[swiftaw]

The US is really lucky they are solid at the back because their attack is terrible.

 

[Silverdude2167]

We play defense like a 10-year-old playing Fifa.

Charge at the ball carrier with one play, when you miss, switch and do it again.

 

[Ale Xander]

Who kidnapped the USWNT? Don’t know who I’m watching RN

 

[Ale Xander]

F 8 minutes
I’m gonna have a coronary

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh sweet Christ

 

[jon abbey]

holy shit

 

[SoxFanInCali]

I just nearly died.

 

[Silverdude2167]

They are on fucking tilt

 

[swiftaw]

The US coach is playing scared, switching to a back 5 to try to preserve the tie. Inviting pressure.

 

[Ale Xander]

Not only do we miss Macario and Pugh, I think we miss Press

 

[Ale Xander]

Fffff
