Yeah for the achievement that is Olympic sport. Where the true nature of sports and competition is allowed to flourish: Cheating and bad reffing!

I don't know. the delay of game call was pretty bad but i'm pretty sure the US would have came back to tie it anyways. Soccer is a broken sport. The referee has too much power.

I wonder if the referee will get kicked out of the games for "not giving it her all" because she mailed that game in big time.

Got to agree with Landsberg, terrible officiating.

Games like this are why soccer will never be a big sport in North America. Just can't take it seriously with crap like this, diving and poor officiating. Its why we hate the Canucks.

Ugly thread.
Proud of the women, despite the result.

Canadian Women's Soccer team shouldn't be ashamed of this lost. They did everything they could and they could have won the game if it wasn't for the referee trying to dictate the game. I have never watch soccer for this long but this game between the Canadian and USA was awesome.

You could tell Morgan was going to do something. I thought it would be in penalties, though.

Soccer is a rotten sport. Sucks for the Cdn athletes, but this sport is just garbage.

Okay, can someone explain the delay of game call? I don't really understand the rule.

Poor Sinclair. She should have been the story of that game.

Yeah. it seemed like she was going one on one with us all OT.
Good thing this isnt' a league. The coach should come out and rip the ref a new one.

Sucks to have the refs decide the game like that but Alex Morgan is a total babe.

Not mad at Canada at all, the women played their heart out and deserved the win.
The third American goal was nothing more than a garbage call from the ref.

What a disastrous last play. Perhaps trying to head it 9 times to each other was a bad idea, in retrospect.
Then, the goalie comes way out, only to try and run back to the goaline. If she stayed put, she probably could have tipped it away. Easy for me to say behind my keyboard.
Oh well, good run. Heartbreaking finish for the girls/

Then don't comment on it.
Hopefully our girls can regroup for the bronze.
