Best game of 2011

Own goal, red card controversy, re-taken pks, fake injuries, a 120th minute header to force pks

usa winning despite the referee

"In the end, football won" - xavi (who is also humble and respectful)

Simply an amazing game.

usa is pretty lucky with these last minute equalizers, lets not forget the usa - algeria match from the world cup xD

i thought women didnt fake injuries

Being south american trumps being a woman, apparently

Also @spanky, I prefer to think of that as "fighting spirit" rather than "luck" lol..

Btw we wouldn't have needed a 120 min equalizer if not for the ref making a mess of those calls

Daiane scored on her own net,didnt push up the offside line in the equalizer and missed a penalty shot. She managed to do everything wrong in this game.

Seriously, a patriotic country as USA the victory has to be really sweet.

But really, just proud of what our people can accomplish when they put their minds to it. I don't think I've ever been more excited at a women's game sans WC Final all the way back in the late 90's.

Alex Morgan is hot.

Megan Rapinoe = The American Xavi

alex morgan is the future mrs bhends

awesome, unbelievable, unforgettable game. as i said in the match day thread it was great to see erika's antics come back to bite brazil in the ass. an above poster said that these USA teams are "lucky"--i would argue they have more heart than luck. But the game was so great because of its storyline, not because of the quality of play (although marta's second goal was pure class). Not to sound like a jackass or anything , but watching the women's world cup is getting a bit frustrating. Passes to nowhere, questionable tactical plays, and what at time seems like so many consecutive headers that youd think youre watching a volleyball game gets annoying after a while.... oh well, 3 years to Brazil haha. in the meantime, go USA!!!

Couldn't have said it better myself.


When Rapinoe came in it seemed like she took a gazillion free kicks/corners and most of them were on the money. and the weak footed cross for the game winner to wambach was sex.



go usa, and lol @ diana or whoever it was that hopped off of the stretcher

I spilled my drink celebrating the goal at the bar.

I felt so bad for the U.S.W.N.T. after they received so many horrible calls against them. They pretty much defined what it means to stick it out to the bitter end.

Also, I'd like to impregnate Hope Solo, and today if possible.

Fully agree with my fellow Yanks here.....

All I can say is that the right team is on a plane home today. The American players as well as their coach never gave up hope of an equalizer and Erika's shameful playacting ironically made that happen and allowed for us to equalize.

Oh and I certainly fancy Amy Rodriguez and Lauren Cheney.

Bunch of perverts the lot of ya, your suppose to be watching football not eyeing up thier female parts.

Spoiler:

congrats to the usa.


btw,i find it awful how Brazilians dont even know this tournament exists.If the best player ever doesnt make women's football famous here,then it will never be in our country.sad but true

I'd totally smash that Solo girl. Rapinhoe is fit as well I think.

put some pics on and we will see

Alex Morgan

Dayummmm
