Hope Solo is going to have to play better than she did today for the US to medal

agreed. they played well their first two games & even though Sweden hasn't looked good in group play, I wouldn't take them lightly. Then there's the possible match-up with Brazil in the semis. Right now I see a Brazil vs. Canada final.

3-0 Canada Cool
Germany had a couple chances to score a second goal at the end but good saves by Canada's goalkeeper. As someone who is rooting for Canada those last few mins were stressful.

Germany hasn't looked their best in these Olympics. If Canada can get by France, I think they'll be able to get by Germany in the semis. France has played better than Germany.

Ugh. While the US got the outcome that their play deserved, I hate it when the style of play that Sweden used is rewarded. Teams that load up on defense like that are boring as hell to watch. I hate that in hockey and I hate it in soccer.

Hope makes it easier to see them lose Laughing

Assuming Brazil gets past Australia, they should have an easy time vs. Sweden and get into the gold medal game.

Hope-LESS. DeClasse. So dominate, if you can--if you CAN'T or won't, you risk losing.

Hope Solo's whining is the 2016 equivalent of the 2012 Olympics' "McKayla Is Not Impressed!" meme. Rolling Eyes

Solo is an embarrassment. As is US Soccer's looking the other way while she stalls the trial of her domestic violence prosecution with a seemingly endless series of appeals.

If she was a NFL player, she would have been suspended the past two years.

Other than that meme took on a life of itself outside of what really happened. McKayla never said nor did anything to warrant that interpretation of the face she made. Solo's comments were just classless garbage.

While I agree that the style of play that Sweden chose to go with is terrible as it is boring as hell to watch, and I guess in a way could be labeled "cowardly", the Americans have no one to blame for the loss but themselves. Not to mention before throwing shade on another team, perhaps she should remember that the Americans scored the equalizer while a Swedish player was laying on the ground injured.

And that Sweden scored a perfectly good goal in extra time that would've won the game anyway, disallowed for a supposed offside that wasn't even close. If 'parking the bus' in front of your own goal, hoping to snatch the occasional chance on the break, is your best chance of winning, then that's what the coach has to set their team up to do.

Solo really is a detestable human being.

Brazil-Australia heading into extra time right now, if anyone wants to see the home nation go through the same agony the US went through earlier.

That Brazil-Australia match last night was fantastic. So many chances for Brazil(19 corner kicks + 10 shots on goal) & they just couldn't score. Then the PKs!!! Marta's shot gets blocked & I'm thinking it's over, then Barbara saves Brazil! Brazil should easily take out Sweden & head to the gold medal match.

Hope Solo is proof that being a world class athlete doesn't actually lend any sense of class to the person.

She's just a sore loser.

As for the comments about Sweden being cowardly for the style of play they used in the game, it shows a stunning lack of awareness on her part.

Sweden's job is not to play the style of game the US wants. Their job was to beat the US. Mission accomplished. I'd rather be boring and win, than exciting and lose.

You keep saying things like this. Weren't the quarter-finals an illustration that nothing's coming easily in this tournament?

USA lost to a bad Sweden team. They played terrible soccer. If they had played up to their full potential they would have won. Brazil is the same. On paper, Brazil should easily win. The Swedish defensive isn't anything close to what Australia's is, so Brazil should be able to capitalize on this.

Canadian women just beat Brazil in the Bronze medal game, 2-1.

Were tenth ranked in the world coming into these games.

Really good result for Canada.
