2 45 min halves, followed by 2 15 min halves

 

[KidA Seven]

Ok, I just saw the amazing goal the US just made. Can someone explain to me how they they were still playing at 120 min.?

Extra Time... tied after 90 min. So 30 minutes extra.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

I usually don't give a shit about women's soccer but I can't turn down the gut-wrenching tension of penalty kicks, regardless who's taking them.

Go U.S. girls!

 

[JaskoX1]

Think I pulled my hamstring

 

[Insane Metal]

And suddenly football is awesome, am I right?

Fuck yeah, I love penalty shootouts.

Hahah yeeah. Now it's awesome again.

And the USA will take it in the Penalties, no doubt.

May the best win.

They added time because a Brazilian player got "injured" and they had to take her off on a stretcher.

 

[Nemesis121]

lol the time wasting fake injury by Erika gave US extra time to score...Fucking Karma...

It's called 2x15m extra time.

It was tied at the end of 90 so there are two 15 minute extra time periods added on. And now PKs.

 

[Simplet]

I really need to watch more women football. This shit has been LEGENDARY

 

[lazybones18]

Lucky ass American team

I just got up and saw the 2-1 score and thought it would have been over in a few minutes. Guess I was wrong

 

[The Frankman]

Lol, you obviously never watch football(soccer). People flop, fake injuries all the damn time, they go off the field and then come back like nothing ever happened to them. This is why the sport is such a joke. Of course basketball players are starting to copy that trend and it needs to stop.

This. Baseball and basketball are starting to get so bad with it, basketball especially.

 

[Socreges]

Fuck. Brazil.

I'm Canadian. I don't have any reason to cheer for the US, but seeing the two cases of simulation, the penalties bullshit (non-call and bs call), and how much more attractive the US is compared to Brazil (!!!)..... seeing them tie it up in the last possible moment was AWESOME!

Boxx is hard to look at, though

GO USA

 

[GhostWriter24]

I cant even watch.

 

[JaskoX1]

agreed. this whole cup.

 

[Tideas]

how do you flop in baseball? pretend u get hit by a ball?

 

[Mailenstein]

Wanderlei Silva shooting first lol.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Is this how the Brazilian mens team won so many WCs too? Such an overrated footballing country...

1970's Brazil would steamroll Spain. Too much kneejerking here.

 

[stupei]

Not sure Boxx is who I'd start with...

 

[Brobzoid]

LOL

 

[Phantast2k]

wat.

 

[alstein]

They add injury+stoppage time at the end of halves instead of stopping the clock like they do in American sports.

The extra time is just an overtime used in knockout rounds of tournies before penalties.

There's often calls of biased amounts of stoppage time.

 

[rando14]

"That has to be retaken".

EDIT: Nice.

 

[Celsior]

WTF did the goalie do their

 

[Brazil]

HOLY SHIT THAT'S GOLDEN

Oh God.

 

[criesofthepast]

[The Frankman]

[El-Suave]

Crappy refereeing making the US need a miracle finish?

Crappy refereeing has nothing to do with the sport itself - it just adds to the myth.

 

[Mailenstein]

Hahaha, icecold the same corner lol.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

"That has to be retaken".

Well it does if the ref is going to consistently follow FIFA law.

 

[Brobzoid]

goalie seemingly doesnt understand the precedent set. she did it on the retake too. hahaa

 

[stupei]

Boxx is fucking boss.

Do it, Hope. DO IT.

 

[Phantast2k]
