I believe Jayde Riviere is suspended for this match due to yellow card accumulation. Lawrence's 100th cap!

Sinc_Tanc_Olympic_Action Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I can't sleep. I had wishes on how we should go about this game but I don't think any of them would come to pass, so I think I am just going to watch this game with very low expectations.

_Vic_ Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Couple of interesting sayings come to mind. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Insanity is the practice of repeating the same thing with different results. If we are desire a different outcome, what are we going to do different to bring it about?

I missed the Brazil match because I needed sleep but watched the Group Stage. Nigel is a little conventional and boring but that's his role. What do you not like about former #CanWNT player Dr. Clare Rustad?!? I think she's great (and I think that's the majority opinion on this board). Also very friendly in person. http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_Rustad Edited August 2, 2021 by Olympique_de_Marseille Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 So far, 15 minutes in, it has been a shambles of a game, as Tommy Docherty might have said. But an evenly played shambles at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 Naeher certainly looked like she hyperextended the knee, that made me cringe. Franch only has about 6 caps for the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Vic_ Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Why is Beckie taking corners? She's been short, long and behind the net. Such a waste. JohnnyFranchise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly Beckie has been able to score an "Olympico" corner on the training ground. Much harder to make it work under pressure.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 I'm not sure what to make of this first half. It's not that we look good; it's more that the USA look much worse than usual. JohnnyFranchise and DavemTFC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 USA is still the best team in the world, and it's 0-0 at the half. So it's going fine. But if Canada wants to score a goal and not just hope for penalties they'll need to bring on someone in midfield who is more positive and can pass, instead of Quinn (Scott has been surprisingly good on the ball so far).

It's not that we look good; it's more that the USA look much worse than usual. I agree re: the usa. But we've been good. Tired as the half went on but we looked at our sharpest in the tournament so far. Beckie has to do better on corners but we look a legitimate threat. Defensively superb, Gilles especially. I take back saying Zadorsky should start, this pairing is more awkward but definitely on much better form I think we need to attack and score early in the second half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) We are playing this half disgustingly badly. They can't make the most basic pass. We have counters we squander over and over again. The problem is that this is considered acceptable, when we have so much more to give. Every player on this team could play much better, but they don't seem to be required to show the most basic skill sets. Then you get players sleeping, in a semi final. Pisses me off, frankly, especially when this US team is nowhere near as dangerous as they've been for decades. Edit: Labbé is doing her job.
