    57' 1-0, 2-0 New Zealand spring #10 Gregorius running alone at 35m up the the 6-right lane. She outpaces the CB trying to close inside-out, shoots early at box top right post -- floats directly to Ngo Ndom's face, easy save.

    59' 1-0, 58' 2-0 Cameroon subs in (2 of 3) #16 Jeannette Yango for #12(c) Francoise Bella.

    College fans are much better than professional fans in terms of crowd involvement.

    61' 1-0, 2-0 #10(c) Marta drives down box mid-left, gets past #2 Scott, blasts a hard shot -- Bardsley sprawls and kicks it out. Brasil chip high to 6-top right post, Bardsley judges it and catches high in front of a crashing runner.

    63' 1-0, 2-0 Great Britain subs in (1 of 3) #17 Rachel Yankey for #15 Eniola Aluko.

    63' 1-0, 62' 3-0 New Zealand chips from center circle over #13 Rosie White's shoulder down box right. White lifts head at 11m, crosses high curling to 6-top center. #10 Gregorius is alone up the centerline, kneels on the run and heads sharply into the back right edge. Clinic!

    Christiane looks a couple steps slower. Is she not fully back?

    68' 1-0, 67' 3-0 GBR chip down box right for #10 Smith. #4 Aline overtakes her from behind and right, does a shoulder-to-upper-back charge, unbalances Smith down. Foul, yellow on Aline.

    69' 1-0, 68' 3-0 GBR free kick from box top wide right, played back, dribbled across box top to arc left, and shot high over.

    70' 1-0, 69' 3-0 #3 Daiane bursts through box top 6-right, down to 6-top right. #3 Houghton comes diagonally across, slide-tackles and pokes ball(?), rolls over ball and Daiane rolls over her legs and down. No call!! Reverse-angle video looks juicy, mmm ... got away with one?

    71' 1-0, 3-0 GBR flick from box top left to #12 Little at arc left, quick shot to left post, Andreia catches.

    It's basically Arsenal Ladies with a handful of other clubs' players.

    EDIT - not so much, I looked up the roster. I was going after what Kate was saying.

    Dieke is Scottish but had to be replaced due to injury. But yes, you're basically right.

    72' 1-0, 71' 3-0 Brasil subs in (3 of 3) #17 Grazielle (FW) for #7 Ester (MF).
    74' 1-0, 3-0 GBR possess at box top left touch. #7 Carney does cutbacks amidst 3, gets hackhed down.

    74' 1-0, 3-0 GBR free kick from 10m left touch. Brasil utterly asleep, simple ball curls to #4 Jill Scott unmarked at 9m right post. She waits for ball to drop as all aver, gacks the standing free header, way high over the left post. Sheepish.
