Since you seem to have taken offense, I'll change the name. Edited May 21, 2021 by Olympique_de_Marseille Buchta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some prefer to use Czechia, even though it sounds terrible. It is a matter of choice. The majority of people in the Czech Republic who understand and speak english prefer to use the Czech Republic. The CSA used the Czech Republic and that is good enough for me. Czechia sounds like a rebranded NHL/MLS/MLB franchise.

It comes down to grammar with regards to nouns and adjectives. I could get into it but it is not important on a soccer forum. The use of 'the Czech Republic' is unique in Europe for the above reason.

sloth8 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) Here is the squad for the camp. 28 players named, so 10 of them will not be going to the Olympics.

Buchta Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 The coach of the Czech team said that they are happy to play Canada, one of the top women's teams in the world. It will be a great match for them where they will gain a lot of experience from. He went on to say that five (or so) players who have been playing as of late will be unavailable vs Canada because of injury.

toontownman Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Schmidt going the 90 is a sign she will be in the final squad. Not happy about that tbh. Less happy with the continued lack of killer instinct in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympique_de_Marseille Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 Only managed to watch about 20 minutes of the match in snippets from the work computer. We didn't look terrible, but we never looked sharp. Not sure what to make of this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I missed virtually all of the game. We came really close to scoring on that centering pass that Rose put into the side netting. The other player that had a chance at it before it got to Rose looked like she should have been able to make it to the ball and tap it in. For those that saw the whole game, were we the better team at least? Goal scoring is a bit of a concern. TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gator Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I watched the whole match and I echo others concern about lack of goal scoring, the commentator said near the end we should be up 5 or 6 nil, possibly with very clinical finishing but I think that was unrealistic! Some times it is hard to take anything away from friendlies and I think that is my observation from today, let's see what happens against much stiffer competition in the next match!

We dominated possession, but like mentioned previously it was our finishing that just was not there. It was Huitema that should of had the tap in. She also had a few chances heading the ball that were off target. Buchanan headed the ball right at the keeper off a corner. We passed okay, but were overall just sloppy and not clinical.
