I googled this and the Olympics start on August 5th. Why on earth does Canada play Australia on August 3rd, before the Olympics start? I thought maybe that was a pre-Olympics game but it is not. It's a group stage game. This happened with the London games too. it is a short schedule. Hoping they go all the way they will pretty much be playing every 3rd day if not a little sooner. It's so compact they have to start a little early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Thanks for the info, wish I'd seen it a few minutes earlier! Just logged on, ten minutes in, Canada already up 1-0. Don't know who scored yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Uh oh. Red card to Zadorsky. We're going to be in tough now. 70 minutes to go. Aussies hit the crossbar fromthe free kick. The ten minutes I've seen so far don't look good. Australia look to be quicker and stronger than us. Come on ladies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 And now a yellow card to Wilkinson. We can't seem to handle Australia's forwards. Tancredi sacrified to bring on Quinn in central defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Finally got a replay of the goal. Sinclair stole it from the last defender, drew the keeper, then passed across goal to Beckie for a tap-in. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Half time, still up 1-0. We're barely hanging on, but on rare occasions we've been able to make a limited fast break with just a couple of forwards. The ladies are looking a bit tired already. Hope we can hang on through the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Canada living dangerously. Yellow card to Buchanan, then a really good save from Labbe, then a spurned opportunity on the break. Doing just barely enough to hand on now. Over 30 minutes still to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we can hang on through the second half. Canada is still getting decent chances on the counter. I dont know that i would characterize it as "Canada is barely hanging on". The possession reflects that canada is a player down. But the quality of chances might be in canada's favour. Canada's def has not conceded much. PS ..: its now the 60th minute. So my view could change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, as time goes by, we're looking more and more ragged. The ladies are definitely getting tired. 25 minutes to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far in the first 20 minutes of the second half we've had I think two good chances. Should really have scored on the first, which would have relieved an awful lot of the pressure. But we're still up 1-0 and still defending for our lives, so there's lots of hope yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 That was a pretty poor penalty. Not too far from the keeper, not much pace, and at just the right height for the keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umpiredice Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 GREAT CHANCE CANADA! Oh, you have to score when you're on a breakaway! But she hit it right at the keeper and the keeper got just enough of it to slow it down so a defender could come back and clear off the line. Damn, that was close!
