Group G discussion (SWE, USA, AUS, NZL)

40' VAR waves AUS PK shout.

HT SWE 1-1 AUS. Not many chances beside the goals from both teams. Sweden was looking bit better in 1st half though

 

I am on a limited time on my domestic connection, so I'm going to save minutes for Japan-GB later, but man, how I hate the fact that I am missing most of today's games!

 

That looked like a PK to me. Interesting that they didn't look at it on VAR.

 

Looked like a penalty kick to me too -- and I'm not fond of penalty kicks.

Australia looks a hell of a lot better in the first half against Sweden than did the U.S. Sweden isn't pressing as hard as they did against the U.S.

This may be the year that Sam Kerr (finally) establishes herself as the best women's player in the world.

 

Jakobssen is so underrated.

Edit: that shot was not it, sis.

 

54' SWE 2-2 AUS I missed both goals

Rolfö is new Sweden bae.

 

Lmao at that Kerr miss.

Ugh at Asllani not laying that ball off.

 

More Lindahl's save than Kerr's miss, I would say.

 

Awful penalty from Kerr. Almost straight at goal. You expect more from a player like that.

 

But even if Kerr had scored, I still feel Sweden would find a way to get a winner.

 

Yes, with her ankle flung up at about shoulder height!

 

What a clinic!

 

You were right.

 

It’s clear that Lindahl is not happy about those 2 goals. She’s been pretty much on point since.

 

Sweden doesn't look like they're going to get shut out in any match this tournament.
They certainly have the goal scorers to make their matches "must watch" TV.

 

On the NBCSN broadcast, the lead commentator tried to talk Kerr up based on her rep at the club level. Danielle Slaton with the true bomb: yeah, but you have to do it at the International level too.

Edit: Sweden being too nice. They need a 5th goal.
