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

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

    Well I'm not believing any analyst now.

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

    Japan had been very impressive but got outmuscled in the midfield by the Swedes for most of the game. Therefore the key Japanese players weren't that influential. It was only when Sweden started to tire that Japan looked dangerous.

    From the stands that is how I saw it as well. Sweden had a great game plan, bullied the smaller Japanese players and dominated the first half. And played some good football not seen by them in the tournament to date.

    Japan did keep battling and slowly got on top at 2-0 down and were a bit unlucky with the penalty miss. Sweden worthy winners.

    Aussies certainly had their opportunities. Just lacked the finishing touch.

    The 19yo French girl (#23) has brought a real spark off the bench.

    Cracking match

    Extra time here we come

    Think France will sneak this

    Australia could have and should have finished it in regulation time

    Couldn't we have gone straight to penalties?

    Would have saved 2 hours.

    An even game, but something of a stalemate.

    France lead 4-3. If Australia miss, they’re out.

    Big drama.
