Bronze scores a stunner! 😆 #antijinxed

Norway has had so many chances but tje forward what gets them can't shoot.

Ivansen

Yeah, no one to blame but themselves if Norway don't go through.

invisibleman18

Yes! Just back from a meeting to see we won. Expected the usual penalties.

Toodles Norvay

So much lol in that video I don't even know where to start. The one who just keeps picking up the ball in the middle of play. "Shit, hands" looool. And the other one who had to leave team because everyone fell in love with her, "Lesbians, they're teeming everywhere" lol. 25 kick up record... with a balloon. Lol.

Blatter's response to their (sometimes absurd) suggested changes I think was the funniest:

We acknowledged receipt of the letter dated 8 March 2015 including details about your concerns about the future of women's football.

Hahaha these suggestions made my day. LOL. What a bunch of crap. Enjoy your time in the FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.

Yours sincerely

Joseph S. Blatter

That has to be fake, doesn't it.

banduan

Of course it's fake 😆

I've just seen Bronze's goal vs Norway. The keepers are shit.

invisibleman18

I don't think the keepers are shit. It was a good strike, and as per the earlier discussion the keeper didn't quite have the reach to get more than a finger tip to it.

Irishgunner

Yeah, the tallest keeper at the world cup is 5'9". Playing in full sized goals. It is truly ridiculous.

banduan

I thought it was shit keeping too at first but seeing replays, it went right at the top corner and the keeper is waaay too short.

The problem is making the goals smaller will cause lower scoring games, which makes the games boring for the casual fan, that the women's game already have trouble attracting.

Indeed. 😆

Should the Thai, Indian or Indonesian (to name a few) leagues play with smaller goals as well? Their male height is on average lesser than that of Norwegian women.

I think, for practical reasons, they should keep sizes of balls/goals/fields the same. Not to mention that smaller goals would give fewer goals, and thus less entertainment. No one ever complains that 100 meters is too far for women as they cannot match the times of the men.

Just watched the video and couldn't stop loling throughout. The keeper at the end who fumbled the fruit or whatever it was that was thrown to her. 😆 😆 😆

banduan

Teeming with lesbians.

Big Willie

😆

When she first mentioned changing clubs because everyone falling in love with her I thought she meant the men's team.

banduan

Very disciplined team, Japan. Can see why they won the last one.
