Anyone think that ESPN has done this game injustice by fricking up the highlights ? For those who didn't watch the game you don't see:


The blatant shitty calls against the US. Including Marta horsecollaring Wambach.

The two close calls where US players LePeilbet and others were taking down in the box.

Erika being a whore and laying down on the pitch faking injury. Then running moments later.

Shannon Boxx missing the PK but it resetting due to the GK getting off the line.

I agree with everything except this. As much as the ref sucked, those were good no calls.

Thats why I said .... "two close calls" Could have went either way. Well one in particular. The other doubtful.

and you would think ESPN would eat up Erika being a bitch because they love to show flopping soccer players. Shannon Boxx sucks

Almost no mention of this. It seems like a makeup for the first PK redo.

Can anybody remember a game with 2 PKs that had 2nd attempts?

Not like they had time for it. Had we lost, it would have been one of the main stories.

Yea, it ended up coming back to bite her. It's not a very smart strategy really

I can not believe a member of the team with 147 caps would allow the best player in the world to go unchecked in the penalty box while bitching about offsides. W.T.F. No whistle, continue to play.

we didnt miss one so they never had to call it. The ref called encroachment on the US, meaning one of our players went into the box while the kick was taking place. It DID happen. Watch the replay. that is what the PK was called for.

Um fail, fail and fail.

Fifa confirmed after the game what the call was... it was for Solo moving off her line. Just because a random camera angle showed some other infraction doesnt mean that is what the call was. Not sure where this myth came from.

Halftime.

Also, Solo said it after the match.

I hadn't seen that. link? I thought what you said was what they called it for, considering Hope got the yellow for arguing.

well, when no one on the team knew what the PK was for, they found an "infraction." that's where this "myth" came from

Btw, since FIFA was forthcoming about this infraction, when do you think they'll tell us what happened in the Slovenia match?
