I don't want to see either team lose in penalty kicks. But that's going to happen.

Help me, Hope Solo. You're our only Han.

Right, because her two defenders falling down and setting up the Japanese forward with a ball 6 yards away from the goal is totally Solo's fault.

Not sure if it was that chance or the other one shortly before/after, but there was one where she hesitated on the cross and created the dangerous situation where the two slapstick defenders fell over each other.

Now to PK.

GRRRRRRRRAAAAAGGGHHHHH!

Hope Solo, please tear off your shirt after making the game-winning save
 
2011-07-17 05:13:14 PM
Alright, Hope. Time to get it done.

RsquaredW: WTF goal kick call.

Offside
 
2011-07-17 05:13:32 PM
Penalties, which means more close up shots of Solo.
 
2011-07-17 05:13:32 PM

Because
 
2011-07-17 05:13:46 PM
Solo is our only hope.
 
2011-07-17 05:13:47 PM
PKs with a broken goalie. Oooh yeah. Drama, baby.
 
2011-07-17 05:13:47 PM
paj: Good try there, stout defending by Japan.

Agreed, a red is pretty unimportant at this point, sacrifice everything.
 
2011-07-17 05:13:47 PM
I still don't get how that wasn't a corner kick.
 
2011-07-17 05:13:50 PM
Farking kicks from the mark. What a shiatty way to end such an awesome game.

bobbette: HideAndGoFarkYourself: bobbette: HideAndGoFarkYourself:

Look at the replay of the goal she let in earlier this game. I think she's also frequently way too far out of net.

Right, because her two defenders falling down and setting up the Japanese forward with a ball 6 yards away from the goal is totally Solo's fault.

You clearly know nothing about this game.

She dove completely the wrong way, it was a bad read of the attacker, and I've played and watched soccer for 20 years kthx.


Then you should know the speed at which those plays develop and that from 6 yards out, after watching your defenders fall down, the goalkeeper has absolutely no chance to react to the shot. There was no opportunity to "read the attacker," she was RIGHT in front of the goal. That's like saying that the japanese goalkeeper did a poor job reading Abby Wambach's header from the same distance out.

Were your 20 years spent watching 6 year olds play? Cause that's your basic understanding of the game.

PK. I knew it would come to this...

"I would take her in my net any day."

We're sure you would, Julie.

She'd take her in her nets anyday :)

Shadowknight: This is getting exciting. My wife is screaming at the TV right now.

My husband is, too. Too bad I'm not gonna see anything. Every time someone shoots my stream buffers!
 
2011-07-17 05:14:25 PM
seems like some of you guys are 2-3 minutes behind the live stream.

Is your network afraid of a nip-slip?
 
2011-07-17 05:14:25 PM
I never feel good about PKs...fark
 
2011-07-17 05:14:30 PM
HideAndGoFarkYourself: Lol, well played. Solo is routinely called the best female goalkeeper in the world, including by at least 3 announcers prior to this game. I think Tony DiCicco is more reliable an authority on women's soccer than those who frequent Fark.

We're gonna find this out now.

hey, i'm behind her and not knocking her abilities. But she's the "catch phrase" of the past week. before Brazil, no one gave a shiat. Now it's the Hope Solo show.

But hey, at least she's less feminine than Sidney Crosby.

female announcer: "Hope Solo... I would take her in my net any day"
 
2011-07-17 05:14:30 PM
Just get them all on frame, ladies. Don't give anything away.

I'll take the obnoxious American in Kickball all day. And not just because she's hot.

/shame it has to end this way, though
//it ain't soccer
