Yeah.
Won't mind going into the bronze medal match. That hat trick by Sinclair was pretty impressive.
Well, when you've got good national teams playing each other, it ends up being rather dramatic.

Women's football is incredibly fun to watch. For some reason the women's senior teams still haven't adopted overtly defensive tactics the same way the men's national teams have.
You are missing out.
I was at the Japan Egypt game in saturday and that was completely full.
Most definitely.

There's a proud history of terrible decisions in boxing, so the Olympics are just accurately reflecting that, if anything.
Yeah you get out there and show those females how it's done.

I would not count out CAN dude, they're a strong team and can still do it.

Close to being a penalty there. Just outside the box.

Last defender and didn't get carded? lolref.
Shhh!!
Nah it's alright, the quality has got better over the last few years. Woman's Rugby is still atrocious though.
I'm more of a fan of woman's hockey.

A point is awarded for a scoring hit with marked part of the glove on the opponent's head (side or front) or body (above the belt).
A panel of five judges decides which hits are scoring hits.
Judges each have two buttons before them, one for each boxer, and they press the appropriate button when they believe a boxer delivers a scoring hit.
An electronic scoring system registers a point whenever three or more judges press the button for one boxer within a second of each other. No point is awarded for a hit unless three of the five judges agree.
When two boxers trade blows in a flurry of infighting, where no full-force punches can land, the judges wait until the end of the exchange and award a point to the boxer who got the better of it.

There are probably like 50,000 there which isn't bad for two non-home country teams.
Also take in to consideration, a lot of people bought their tickets expecting to see England in this game, so probably decided not to go when we lost to Canada. LOL.

Unless the ref decides to do something unique.
??? almost everything goes against Germany (except the one fencing fight)

We're still blaming refs after Canada has had multiple chances to win at the end of regulation and ET?

why am I nervous
she's having a really shaky match. i'm not feeling confident if it goes to PKs
Spain losing to Brazil because they're worst than Brazil.
Either this, or they should be removed from the tournament.

You aren't Buffon, McLeod. ~_~
Close one.
Close one.
It depends what you mean by fun. This game has been as messy as hell, with a crazy amount of mistakes.
I don't watch women's football usually so I don't know if it's the norm.
I guess because of that it is fun to watch... but not in an impressive kind of way.
it's only bad when the chinese do it

I don't trust the US in penalties after last year's debacle. Let's end this in the second extra time.

So nervous right now. *tension*
It's not, but this is the Olympics.
They said 30k which is an impressive number for a game not involving GB.
Same. I want this game over ASAP.
