Holy fuck!

ABBY!
C'MON HOPE!!!

ETA:
The US dodged a bullet. The penalty call was the correct one, and if you call the foul, you have to give the red card for preventing a goal scoring opportunity.

However, that retake? That was pure bullshit.

It was pointed out on the ESPN broadcast that Brazil's second goal shouldn't have counted because the pass to Marta came from an offside position. However, Marta's finish was magic.
People really love to hate Marta. That's too bad, I don't think she deserves it.

The US (and Brazil) just wilted in the heat and humidity. Their passing needs to be much, much crisper to win. I think they can out muscle and out intimidate France, but if they meet Sweden in the final, they need to be sharp.
