it's good to see them struggle in this match

the us fed typically schedules cupcake sendoffs (see: 1998 Steve Sampson's 3-6-1 v. Kuwait)

wales are ranked 18 in uefa and were in the last 3 out after finishing 2nd in their group and winning a playoff game

I would be surprised if this team doesn't have its worst ever finish in the World Cup (currently 3rd), although we are in the much easier side of the draw.  Australia, Canada, England, France, Brazil and Germany are all in the other half of the draw.

I’m watching this with my 6 year old daughter (her favorite sport is soccer). Such a great night in my life. 

Same, though this is our 4th WWC to watch together... :)

I think one of the frustrating parts of the women's game is that they rarely step to the ball on a pass. They seem to just stand, seemingly stuck to the pitch, until the ball and the defender arrive at the same time.

The US women have lost at least a half-dozen balls in the first 30 minutes that they would've kept, had they just stepped to the ball
