Thanks for creating this thread, Maouth!

Complete oversight, had meant to before the games began but forgot to and just kind of figured somebody else eventually would.

Hopefully Canada goes out and plays smart football against the Germans and can get back to a little more of that attacking style game they played in the group stages. It'd be amazing for that crew to play for Gold.

I came here to comment about Hope Solo and couldn't find a soccer thread. :laugh:

It's odd that no one mentioned it or noticed it until now.

She is simply just not a very nice person. That's about the best I can say about her.

Armour: Calling Sweden 'bunch of cowards' should be last straw for Hope Solo

RIO DE JANEIRO — Hope Solo is an embarrassment to both her team and her country.

If Sweden can pull out the win versus Brazil and Canada somehow beats Germany...

Sweden trying to replicate Greece's successful Euro Cup strategy, from the looks of things. Park that bus. :laugh:

Hey, if they can use it to beat the US and Brazil, they can use it to beat anyone.

What a performance by the Swedish keeper, all game long.

Allowing one goal, total, in games against US and Brazil, pretty damn impressive.

Now to see who they'll face for gold.

This actually puts a lot of pressure on Canada.

If they lose against Germany, the bronze medal game will be a tough one.

lol Buchanan is so lethal.
isn't sweden's new coach the USA's OLD coach? that could be part of the reason why they're so plucky.

and Buchanan took out the german girl AGAIN.
and yellow card now for Buchanan.
