FIFA Women's World Cup 2019: USA#1 - Page 7 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Wish they would just give adv to the attacker when it's that bloody close.

@BS:- I didn't think they looked that good but I suspect they'll be like the men and grow into the tournament. I'm very likely completely wrong as I'm clueless about womens sport.

So, that Kerr is the one that has a higher rating on FIFA (ala pound for pound) than Salah.

She's rank at taking pens though. Although i'm surprised at the improvement of the keepers from the last time I watched the highlights of keys/grey laughing.

Those Aussie kits are just hideous. Especially against Italy's classic kits.

Aus don't look like the huge favorites they went off as.

That growing into a tournament thing is kind of like...y'know...after last year..let's just hope they do better than our folks in Russia lol. They already did by winning the first game and not playing like complete wank.

Scotland look good, too. They should easily do enough to advance, even after dropping this game.

This game noticeably has quality lol

Leave it to the Goat Brits to provide it.

Just catching up. 1. That is not an unnatural position. The rule is fine, the interpretation the refs seem to be going with is gash. 2. Scotland are not good enough to play it around at the back. 3 the girl who scored needs to cross more. 4. England seem pretty decent. 5. Nice to see a Scotland side with some wim

Lol Australia.

We sacked our coach 6 months ago and never really explained why.

Since then new coach has us playing super high and playing out from the back which is just lol vs competent opposition. Big danger to go out in the groups, will probably need a result vs. Brazil and a big win over Jamaica to lock it up.

Kits are a throwback to the early 90s btw

Either the mix of the anthems or the sound mixing from Le Havre is terrible. It sounds like solo mariachi trumpet accompanied by orchestra.

Dutch looked good and deserved their 1-0 win vs Kiwis

Sweden is scary af vs a totally outmatched Chile team that somehow is holding on 0-0 at the half

Actually watched the game and think you are being very harsh on New Zealand. They bossed the game for long periods and created the much better chances over the first ~70 minutes

Fair enough. I saw basically from 35’ to the end. To me the Dutch just looked better. But not great like Sweden here imo. I don’t think NZ looked bad by any means. They seemed fine. But to me def the right outcome
