    Are Team Norge dead women walking after this morn's shocking upset by Japan? Or can they pull it together against the Olympic runners-up? This will be the other 6AM Eastern time match. All stuff about this game, feel free to post here.

    Well, if that is the ref I think it is, we can watch at least one American right now.

    i think norway is going to try resort to the counter and bunker in the back; if they are able to maintain that result by the end of the first half, I think that's when Brazil gets uneasy and Norway might have a change (aside from free kicks)

    USSoccer matchtracker has posted that the storm is expected to blow over and they're going to wait it out.

    Nice goal. It's unfortunate that Norway couldn't get themselves to the break without conceding that.

    That's because it's probably the same field the USMNT took a dump.

    :rolleyes:

    I generally expect Norway to do better with those free kicks.

    Brazil has their younger keeper in. I saw her in denver. She is going to be great for brazil in the future. Wicked fast.

    Too often, the Norwegians are putting those long balls where there are no runners.

    2-0 Marta scores

    Backpass by Norway to their own keeper has no pace, Marta runs onto it and chips the keeper easily.
