The finishing on this team can be so frustrating

This USA team sucks. No intensity, no instincts, no guts, no midfield.

They may regret not running it up against a team with 10.

Just loser mentality. This team need a-holes like Wambach or Lloyd.

Everything after the red card was pretty awful. Prior to it, we were playing really well. Hope Hayes gets after them.

Maybe, but everybody who suited up played at some point.

It became very disjointed after Smith was subbed out. I'm wondering if Shaw needs to be Smith's primary backup because it's pretty obvious that Williams doesn't play the flowing interchangeable game Smith, Swanson and Rodman plays.

27 shots, only 3 goals, SSDD, 0 goals up a man for 65 minutes against a team outside the top 50.

When Zambia went to 10 they went full on bunker. Had they done that from the start, they might have gotten a point today. Just pathetic how bad we are against it.

Remember, 9-10 of the women on this team have never appeared in a match at this level. Then again, they are playing the German club Sunday and I'd be happy to get a draw.
Peace for Ukraine!

So the Canadians are in hot water over this drone thing. Already had coaches and assistants sent home from the games and there's sources within the org saying there was spying going on during WC qualifying and at the Copa this year.

They didn't just send the coach home, they suspended their head coach for the Olympics. I guess at this point they're in full damage control mode.

Sorry, "Sent home from the games" = suspended from the Olympics.

It'll be interesting to see if any heads roll other than the women's Olympic team coach. If it's happening on both the men's and women's side and spans multiple coaching regimes, that definitely implies that some higher up administrators were aware and allowed it to persist.

Originally they sent home the assistant coach and the analyst but not the HC. The HC took herself out of the opening match. Now the federation has suspended the HC for entirety of the Olympics.

Sorry I wasn't clear earlier.

Yeah, I'm aware of all that. I was trying to be succinct.

Anyway, they're in some deep *****

What do you really get from spying on a practice? Set piece knowledge?

And just to finish slapping them in to last week, they were fined $226k. And banned the two assistant coaches.

That was one expensive drone.

Sophia Smith finishes a nice cross from Rodman and the US is up 1-0 on Germany. 18' currently.

Crazy how just 3 years ago our Olympic team was averaging 30 plus and now they're mid 20s.

U S kicks it out since they have a player down and Germany doesn't give it back.

This is the second most important tournament for women's national teams. Amazing to see so many empty seats.

Solid win. Suprised by how much possession Germany allowed us to have. Glad to see our chances finally get to the net.

Goal allowed today was the first under Hayes.

This is a really good USWNT. They completely dominated the game against a top tier German squad. Rodman, Lavelle, and Smith are too tough for most opposing defenses to handle.

Emma Hayes is the real deal.
