    Lloyd having a crap game. Not that she's the only one. Igwe isn't having a good day, either.

    eta: Let me rephrase. Igwe is having a crap game.

    Not a good decision by Tarp there.

    Does anyone know whether Branam won the job outright or if Bardsley is still having back issues?

    I hope the latter. If you see what I mean.

    Half. SkyBlue looks good. Chicago, not so much. I'm guessing Hayes will let her team know about her unhappiness w/ their play. Time for me to get a beverage.

    Chicago looks like they're playing a woman down. They all just look exhausted, like their legs are made of lead. Did they have a really hard week of practice or something?

    Ok. We're back. Looks like Hayes kept the team in the locker room a while....

    The blog posts I read did indicate a tough practice week (or maybe that was last week when they had the bye)

    Chicago still hasn't figured out how to pass to teammates.

    eta: sitruc, from what I can tell, morale seems fine. But it isn't like someone is going to write "I hate my teammates & coaches."

    Agreed. It was no slouch in the first too.

    nice shot by Carney and no one followed to try and get the Branam spill.

    So, who do we think is coming out for Cristiane?

    I'm surprised there wasn't one Red Star player around for that huge rebound.

    Carney gets the yellow for either studs up or just being late.

    Klein out for Cristiane.

    And Lori, why do you think the Brazilians playing in Sweden don't know about fitness? Come on.

    And SkyBlue hits the crossbar. Who is supposed to be helping Dalmy on that side. She's ended up w/ two players twice.

    I think HAO just put a dent in the crossbar with that miss.

    Rapinoe holds the ball way too long there.

    I don't think she was off there. But maybe Rampone recovered quicker than I thought.

    If you mean Cristiane, she was playing in Brazil from the end of the Swedish season (October) until joining WPS. No idea how much practice/play she saw there.

    That questionable offside before the Rampone story looked pretty offside to me.
