Thankfully, the wait at the shop wasn't very long.

Swedes out to a 2-1 lead. They're looking stronger than I expected against Germany.

[ilan]

Six minutes of stoppage time. If Sweden can keep Germany out of the goal, they'll pull off a 2-1 upset.

Congrats to Sweden, knocking off Germany and advancing to the semifinals!

Bring on the Brits!!!

Bring on the Brits!!!

Just England, not the Scottish, Welch, or Northern Ireland, who have their own teams. The English manager is mad because a couple of operational staff from the US team made a visit to the hotel that the team was practicing at. The reason they visited was perhaps logistical to prepare for using the hotel for the final (lol), but basically the guy is accusing the USA of spying.

Today is the showdown at 3:00 PM ET. Hopefully, the latest brush up will motivate the USWNT. The English team looked phenomenol in their last game. This should be a great match to watch.

Rapino is not in the starting lineup today. That's a shocker. The news I'm seeing suggests she has some kind of injury. That ain't good!

Nice cross. Press 9' with a great header finds the net. US 1-0 over England.

England ties it 18' with a nice cross to White who buries it in the net.
