US vs Brazil

I don't feel bad for Marta or Erica, but Diane, the woman that had the own goal and missed the PK, deserves a little bit of sympathy. Very hard day for her, I imagine.
 
That was pretty cool. I thought they were done down by 1 goal and 1 player short.

I'm glad I stayed tuned in.
 
By the way, I don't think I have ever seen a retry on a pk for a goalie being off their line or a for a player entering the 18 too soon. Being that both of these happened in this game is crazy.
 
Just got back and had the end recording. Greatest soccer game I've ever watched. What a goal by Wambach.

I agree. For them to battle through all that adversity was amazing. You could see in their faces how badly they wanted to win and kept fighting to the finish.
 
Imagine if Gus Johnson did women's soccer:

Was fun to watch. When we won the 1999 match against China, I was at 30,000 ft in a plane heading home when the pilot came on and announced that Brandi Chastain had kicked a penalty goal to defeat China for the World Championship. We had a little USU,USA chant going on the plane.
