Load of bullshit

 

[drd23]

That's on Micah

 

[AJ_2000]

You just know that Sweden will get a dodgy injury time pen to win it.

Terrible keeping. Just terrible

 

[juss]

So no ridiculous foul found to disallow it?

 

[Camros2]

s**t defending as well, no need to double up on the bird at the front post

 

[Fabab]

Keeper oh dear.

 

[juss]

Now watch all the Swedes have constant niggles for 45 minutes

 

[giggler99]

ffs! What shithouse way to concede.

 

[peternorth]

this hurts

 

[peternorth]

good few mins

 

[Camros2]

That was a nice dive from that Swedish player

 

[juss]

Kerr is elite in the air but we need to be careful we keep Sweden guessing and throw a few different attacks at them and not only whipping in aerial crosses to Kerr.

 

[peternorth]

need some luck

 

[drd23]

I hope Gustavsson gets Fowler on a little earlier tonight than the 75th-80th minute like he has tended to do. We will likely need a little bit of creativity and magic to break Sweden down, and she's the one most likely to provide it

 

[Collingwoodity]

Why have we gone into our shells.

In case you think this is bad, flip over to 7mate and watch the Opals trailing Puerto Rico by 5. They look like a team they rounded up off the street, their point guard literally passed the ball to the ref before, yet they still lead. Opals need to beat them by 25 to make the knockout.

having to go long with mids staying back

could be a bad night for the womens teams

 

[philthy05]

Refs might as well be wearing Swedish jumpers

 

[juss]

This constant bullshit Australia cop at international level really grinds my gears

 

[Collingwoodity]

Final touch not good enough. Both men’s and women’s football in Australia lacks that skill.

 

[ibd77]

Have a bag full.

 

[juss]

This is a free hit now, we are playing off for a medal regardless, time to get forward.

Now, not in the 85th minute.
Too often teams leave it too late before pushing numbers forward. We are going to need to risk losing 3-0 to try and equalise.
