USA could play their reserves and beat either of these.
WWC19 | Final: USA v Netherlands
- Thread starter jojojo
- Start date
Fouls commited Sweden 16, Holland 2 despite sweden being by far the better team 
Good save.
briliant save.
2 great saves either end.
I see the commentsabout how neither team is capable of beating the US, but I don't agree.
The US are very direct and just get the ball to their front 3 and let them do what they do. These 2 teams look to move the ball all around the field and press the defence well without the ball which I think could work well against the states in the final. Both teams also have players who can nick a goal when given the chance.

That was a great save! Both keepers playing well so far.
I reckon that was a penalty. No VAR check though.
Sweden s a bit soft aren't they. Physically the US is far more likely to bully them than they are the Netherlands. Also lucky to not have picked up a bunch of cards yet. That's aside from them playing a bit better overall.
That was a fantastic save on the Netherlands corner and an incorrect offside call following the rebound effort.
Maybe the winner of this match can bore the US team into submission. I'll be really disappointed if we don't win on Saturday based on this match.
Asllani getting the shit kicked out off her all night, good player mind.
I think Sweden will be the more dangerous when the game opens up a bit.

Good game this.
Sweden deserve to win.

Oof close that.
Technical ability seems to be lacking in the women's sport.
Or is it just me judging this match?

Jakobsson is usually quite technical but they’ve been starved of space in this match.
The difference between this match and yesterday's is night and day. Quality has been poor and there's little attacking intent from either side.
Groenen!!
1 - 0 Netherlands.
Finally Manchester United have arrived
Fantastic strike.
Yesss Groenen!
My swedish wife just turned off the TV...
Finally! Great goal
Yes Groenen, you beauty. She deserves it.
A beauty she deff is .
Hmm, i still want Sweden to come back and win this as they seem like they will provide the better competition to the US. They have been the better team, imo, but have just gassed in ET
Incredible that I have seen the Dutch 4/5 times this tournament and never really been impressed and they are about to play in the final
They've been disappointing whenever I've seen them as well. Particularly Miedema, I thought she'd be one of the stars of the tournament.
Sort of like their men's side in 2010. Scrapped their way to the final but I don't recall them putting in brilliant performances, mind you my mind is rusty about that tournament now days.
That Dutch number 7 is just nothing but pace. She's been awful in the attacking third.
That 'finish'
Reminds me a bit of Lukaku really.
Built like a tank and loads of pace but lacking techniqueHopefully nothing serious.
As I was typing it, I was thinking of LingardReminds me a bit of Lukaku really.
Silver medal is a great result. No fecking way we can give USA a game. Though I suppose anything can happen?
The ball is round
Sweet strike for the goal. Hope she does that for the United ladies next season.
We'll see if Netherlands can sneak a goal and maybe somehow keep the US out but no offence we probably saw the final last night or at least a game on a higher level.

How the feck can they have VAR running and the frequency its been used that its become a safety net throughout the tournament but it be absent in the semi finals for that penalty shout
