Mexico womens team looked good, seems they have done some rebuilding like the US. Would have liked one more goal but overall the team played good and worked their way out of the good defense Mexico was giving. Rose, Swanson and Smith worked well off each other. I would definitely make sure they are on the pitch together. Rodman looked better playing off of Shaw and Lynn something I hope the coach saw. Hopefully they play a little more aggressive at the Olympics. Also Dunn holding it down and she is definitely going to be needed with this young team.

The statement by so many saying that the world has caught up to the uswnt really bugs me. Because that is what these women have been fighting for since the start. To show the world that women can play this game with passion, grit, and love. That they can get knock down and have their head cut open, staple it shut and get back on the field and score a header. It's not that these players didn't know the world was catching up, they knew, it was the US Federation that chose not to listen to these women players. It's the US Federation/country that didn't see the world catching up.

It's crushing not to see the uswnt make it to the final but these ladies played with their heart and put all their effort into these games. All these women love this game and put everything into playing it for their club and country. The USWNT has won 4 World Cups, you can't win them all. I hope they are able to re-evaluate for the Olympics and come back looking stronger. For all the other badass women teams still in this game, good luck to you.

All these players coming out for the US and somehow Sullivan is still on the field

Netherlands out here destroy Vietnam and the US is giving me extreme anxiety at 2 in the morning.
