Bronze scores a stunner! #antijinxed
Women's World Cup
Norway has had so many chances but tje forward what gets them can't shoot.
Yeah, no one to blame but themselves if Norway don't go through.
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.
Of course it's fake
I've just seen Bronze's goal vs Norway. The keepers are shit.
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.
Yeah, the tallest keeper at the world cup is 5'9". Playing in full sized goals. It is truly ridiculous.
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.
Teeming with lesbians.
When she first mentioned changing clubs because everyone falling in love with her I thought she meant the men's team.
Very disciplined team, Japan. Can see why they won the last one.

I tuned out before then. Was getting incredibly dull.

Q.E.D.
It's bizarre really. The keeper's obviously not used to playing on fake turf, but even on grass you gotta be prepared for weird bounces, and she shouldn't be waiting for it to bounce anyway.
What d'ya think Invis, if we put on some lippy and did a bit of a tuck in would we get a few games?

Christ
The quarter finals have some interesting match ups

at least it had nothing to do with reach.
Honestly though, that is so bad you'd have to consider match fixing of some sort. Especially when taking the time into consideration.

We might play each other in the semi final.

Fancy Australia to go all the way.
Applying guessology, i predict USA, Germany, Australia and Canada for semis with Germany winning the final against Australia.
It's just like Copa America, the draw is shite.
No reason Germany should be meeting France and USA that early on.
England's slogan for the women's world cup
That must be a joke.
With my vast knowledge of women's footie, Im predicting
China v Germany
Japan v Canada
And Final Japan v China.
That pic looks like they all realised it at the same time
As Rex said, no way can that be official.
Discount, tyres, exhausts, southall, ...!
Not a fake
Jeebus. That's even worse than 'Clap for Sweden' ffs!
Watching the clip shows it isn't something official though.
It's only just dawned on me why you guys were flipping out over that banner
Ah, the sweet, innocent Ms Marquer. Shy as deer, pure as a dove.
