WWC19 USA v SPAIN Round of 16, pre/pbp/post

thank you jesus

 

Wow. I'm not sure.

 

I think your right... shit

 

Soft, but how can you reverse it? Lavelle taken down in the box, there was contact, don't really see a VAR reversal.

 

I hate allowing the players to be in the box and touch the ball.

 

You are welcome.

 

Yeah. There was definite contact. It's a foul. I don't see how they call it back, but the referee is headed over to check it.

 

There is contact. It's soft with the threshold from this ref.

 

PK upheld...

 

Studs up like that is just dumb.

 

There is no clear evidence to overturn this, no reason it should have even been reviewed by the ref

 

Ellis must have told morgan pinoe takes it... interesting she better not miss

 

Spain’s thuggish play finally caught up with them. Karma.

 

Under the keeper and in!!!!!!!!! Pinoe!!!!!!!!!!! 1-2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

phew.....

 

Goodness this ref can be talked into anything. The ball just has to touch the circle.

Ultimate gamesmanship goes to the US with Rapinoe likely always set to take that penalty.

2-1

 

Perfect placement from Pinoe!

 

Actually that was VERY savable. The keeper started with her legs too straight so it took too long to get down. But lucky is OK.

 

12 minutes left?

 

Naeher was fouled.

 

So that was offside and she was fouled... FFS

 

By an offside player.

 

Spain changing their sub for an injury.

 

I REALLY do not understand the no subs. In a friendly you sometimes leave the players that caused the problem to solve it but, even thinking extra time, this is too late.

 

Morgan out for Lloyd...

 

just a little bit...

naeher has come up clutch twice in the 2nd half
