FIFA Women's World Cup

[Bovidae]

The Netherlands defence look slow. Just a matter of time I think.

[MiketheSnow]

Long time coming but Spain take the lead from the penalty spot (handball)

Spain 1-0 Netherlands
81 mins

[Stargazer]

Yussssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

[MiketheSnow]

The Dutch equalise

12 mins of extra time

1-1

[booboo]

@Rancid-Schnitzel so cringey funny even before they bombed ...

[Bovidae]

van der Gragt nearly had the trifecta with an OG at the end.

[MiketheSnow]

Extra time

[Stargazer]

[Bovidae]

The result was decided in 30 secs. Beerensteyn misses, and then Paralluelo scores.

[MiketheSnow]

Tense

Big upset in the second QF

Sweden lead 2-0 after Japan had most of the first half

[sparky]

Japan pull one back. Do they have time to get an equaliser?

[MiketheSnow]

2-1 now after Japan miss penalty and a free kick clatters the crossbar

[MiketheSnow]

10 mins extra time

Come on Japan

[sparky]

Sweden win. 2-1. Japan out.

[MiketheSnow]

Had their chances

Sweden the better team over the 90 mins

[booboo]

Well I'm not believing any analyst now.

I'd been convinced that Japan would win the lot.

[booboo]

Geez soccer is such a lottery. Such a difficulty in actually scoring.

[MiketheSnow]

Had a 9-game predicting streak

Thanks Japan

[MiketheSnow]

The upside of Sweden progressing is we'll have a new name on the cup
