What the feck man, Martens has been permanently injured as you very well know, she's hardly in great shape because she's barely been training during this tournament but she ain't fat or overweight anythingWell as a partisan I want the Netherlands of course to win it. Also my favourite women player is Lieke Martens, who is brilliant. But objectively the USA still really deserve it. The goal is to develop female football to the same level as in tennis, athletics, etc., but only the USA team is at this truly professional level. If I look at the level of individual sports like athletics or even beach volleyball and watch the six packs, and then watch fat and slow Martens, it proves it's not on the same professional level yet. And that's the best player, I'm net even mentioning some of the really useless players. The same is true for the English team, even with their cold baths. Whether you think they are likable or not, the USA players are fecking winners and live for it and set the example and the level the others must thrive for.
Still hoping for an Italian style WC win Play shit and win it.
I mean maybe..but after they lost to the US he seemed pretty keen on the 3rd place game then- his exact words in that interview ‘now onto the 3rd place play off which we will win’Saw the interview by Neville, he was spot on, although he was criticised for saying it was a "nonsense" game. Said the right things, and shows that he is a winner.
Neville, Phil, is never spot on. He is just a sorry loser that does not understand to be a true competitor on international level. Not his fault though, there are no English ex-players that have that experience and understanding.Saw the interview by Neville, he was spot on, although he was criticised for saying it was a "nonsense" game.

Nobody can actually win every game though and making excuses as to why you lost is something tons of fantastically successful players and managers regularly do.I mean surely it’s a winners mentality to win every game you play..?

Seems odd. In some of the group games the stadium seemed near entirely orange. How many tickets were each country given. I much prefer the music the Dutch make over the screaming of the high pitched screaming of the US contingent.Stadium sunny and about 30c. Good contingent of Netherlands fans behind the goal but the "neutral" sections are mostly USA today.

Biggest cheer when the teams were read out was (of course) for Rapinoe.
Not many Dutch people anticipated another good tournament run sadly, and definitely not another final after the Euros. A nice amount of tickets were bought on forehand by Dutch fans for the group stages and the first knock-out round but after that it seems like the tickets were mostly bought by people from other nations for some reason. Only 5000-7000 Dutch fans vs 20.000 USA fans tonight.Seems odd. In some of the group games the stadium seemed near entirely orange. How many tickets were each country given.

Oh come on. She took a hip straight to the gut and didn’t see it coming. And she wasn’t even “quickly back up”.Morgan down again and then quickly back up
She really is the Neymar of the womens game
Quickly back up when the referee was not going to stop play, not exactly really hurt than...was sheOh come on. She took a hip straight to the gut and didn’t see it coming. And she wasn’t even “quickly back up”.
This is beyond worn out.
Morgan down again and then quickly back up

She stayed down until the ball went out... but don’t let that interrupt your narrative.Quickly back up when the referee was not going to stop play, not exactly really hurt than...was she
So is Neymar, who makes the most of any contactTo be fair she’s always marked, players seem to actually rough her up quite a bit.

You know what the beauty of having the ability to rewind live sports on your TV is?
Yeah I am the one seeing what they want to see. Emoji pack needs a update, theres no clown one
Morgan dived again, time for you to rewind and make up some bs.You know what the beauty of having the ability to rewind live sports on your TV is?
She goes down at the 2:47 mark. The camera finally pans off of her at the 3:05 mark and she’s just now sitting. Ball goes off at 3:10 mark. At 3:20 mark shes finally walking around with her hands on her head trying to get her wind back.
I guess you might right about the emoji thing though.
I thought they were booing the ref.Morgan getting boos for diving.
Hearing the boos just now when a foul wasn't given for USA, I'd say you're right.I thought they were booing the ref.
Because we have a better wall than the US will ever have.How does this Dutch team stay in these games is such a huge mystery
Insufferable bunch all round.Rapinoe talking more shit...
Can't see anything but USA winning by atleast a couple of goals, the Dutch are terrible.
What she did in the box was a dive. What happened at the beginning of the game is exactly as I described.Morgan dived again, time for you to rewind and make up some bs.
Yes they are. They're not giving away much space in the final 3rd at all.The Dutch team is so well organised.
