    Re: FIFA Women's World Cup

    It didn't really look like an effort problem to me. Maybe not as focused as needed but deflected goals off US players giving Sweden a goal, a penalty kick a few minutes into the match, missed wide-open goals, easy goals bouncing off the post. Seemed more like a case of catching the shat end of the stick instead of an effort problem.

    Looks like the US women will be out of the WWC next round.

    I think they will handle Brazil. 3-0 is my prediction.

    Hasn't the US won the last 4 matches against Brazil?

    Its actually 5 times, but they haven't played each other since 2008.

    Ah. I heard the stat on Mike and Mike this morning while getting ready for work. If it's been that long it's an irrelevant stat.

    Both teams have progressed. But 3-0? lol If the Americans defend Marta well then they have a chance.
