Deal with it!!
In this game, France didn't take advantage of their oppurtunities, the US did.

Sounds like we got outplayed, but like the US has said over and over, it's not always about skill - heart plays a factor.
Rapinoe as a sub seems to be the clinching spark. France dominated possessions, shots, corners and the middle of the pitch, but once we made some subs and got our legs back under us, they had no answer.
I don't care who we play in the Finals. Japan, Sweden, doesn't matter. We just need to keep things under control and play our match and we can beat anyone.
Isn't that right, Marta?

In the other semifinal...
Oqvist giveth, and Oqvist taketh away. At one end, she got a goal on a bad square ball giveaway, and at the other end she deflected the equalizer on frame while her team's keeper was off her line.

That's about the 40th time today I've seen the words France/French & Surrender in the same sentence.

Sweden's keeper caught WAY off her line. Japan leads 3-1.
I'm guessing the Swedes aren't going to be doing that smug little dance at midfield when this one's over.

Was it Chastain, or the woman that was doing the play by play that said after the Swedes beat the US that "nothing ever good comes from celebrating that much this early in the tournament."
She called that one.
