    To add insult to injury, it looks as though the CWNT may lose Christine Sinclair for the bronze medal game as FIFA is considering suspending her for her comments after Sunday's game.

    What do you all make of this whole situation?

    From one point of view you were robbed, eh. From another point of view you were lucky you weren't 10 down for most of the 2nd half, eh.

    Nobody here can see that as it's from a US broadcaster who blocks it from being seen outside of the USA.

    Very red worthy indeed, but then again, a whole montage could be made of uncalled bookable offenses by Abby Wambach.

    So FIFA has decided to postpone suspension until after the bronze medal game, thank goodness.

    Only thing left to is cheer them on against France tomorrow.

    Both sides at times did play dirty i know some Americans want to think there team is perfect and everything they did was on the up and up the fact is it was not.

    If the US team were perfect we would have a real possession game and not just play mostly long ball. We would play both then we would be perfect.

    On playing dirty I think both teams tried to play physical I would not call that dirty.

    Want to see dirty come here to NYC and watch the NY Albanians play.

    Great win to grab the bronze! Now they'll have some good momentum to carry over to the next World Cup.

    The whole hypocrisy aspect of the situation irked me the most; had roles been reversed USSoccer fans would scream bloody murder!

    Anyway, Sinclair had 6 goals on her tally! Pretty sure she's the leading scorer of the Games!
