    Oh I god, what a save by the US keeper. Are they going to VAR? Sweden wins! What a crazy result

    Ha ha

    Eye candy >> better side.

    USA totally dominant. But couldn’t score. First time I see goalie take a penalty. First time I see VAR rule out a save that costs the tournament.

    The US had the result in their hands. And one of their icons fluffed her lines. What a way to go down

    I'd fancy Japan to beat Sweden in the next game

    Ironic that for all of her heroics the Swedish GK never saved a penalty.

    I've never seen a goal keeper take a pen.

    René Higuita , the Colombian GK, used to.

    Very dramatic although I could have done with getting to bed after 90 minutes. Wanted USA to go through solely because Sweden aren't very exciting to watch and I'm heading to Eden Park to see them. At 3-2 up in the pens, USA managed to fail to hit the target 3 times out of 4 - that's letting your goalkeeper and your team down badly. No idea why Rapinoe hasn't already retired - laughing after missing a penalty will make sure she gets lots of US abuse in the near future.

    They already got a lot of shit for the equal pay thing and even more so the not singing the national anthem issue. She is the lightning rod for that. But in truth they played 3 games and couldn't score a field goal. Just didn't have much of an edge up front

    Just saw Rapinoe's miss. That is glorious. Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

    A good two minute summary of normal and extra time.

    The save from Horan low to her left was the best - watching in real time I thought that was in.

    Great first half

    England under the pump

    Could easily be 2 down

    But should have been awarded a penalty for blatant shove in the back in the box

    Nigeria looking the better team by a mile.

    Classic case of underdogs 100% not giving a shit and going for it.

    James just completely lost her head and lucky to still be on the pitch .....

    And she's not.

    Good

    Filth

    Big learning curve from the commentators

    Fuck off

    Call it out for what it is?

    Petulant shit from a player who hasn't had her own way

    Flat track
