World Cup Final Game Thread: USWNT vs Japan
- Thread starter Red Reign
- Start date
We saw some claim that USA couldn't beat Germany or Japan.
They DOMINATED both squads, winning by a combined score of 9-2.

Struggled badly in the first three games and then caught fire....
- Grant Wahl <s>@</s>GrantWahl Not even FIFA officials can ruin this moment for the US, but really? Models in tight black dresses at the trophy ceremony?
It just goes to show that you don't have to hit your stride in Group play. The goal was to win the Group of Death, and they managed to do that despite some (by U.S. standards) mediocre play. But when you're having mediocre moments and still out perform the likes of Sweden and Australia, there's no need to panic.

Rampone as the team captain wearing the arm band one last time....as she raises the Cup....well deserved Class Personified....

Well, the so called "experts" were everyone, so......
I'm also not sure why there always seems to be a pissing match regarding anything soccer related on this site.
That was the best midfield performance we've seen for years. The goals came off corners and sets to start, but the possession play in the attacking 1/2 was the difference. The ball control was solid, fast, tight and spaced to perfection. The next pass was ALWAYS one step ahead. That first 20 minutes was possibly the best a United States team has ever looked. Ever. Japan freaked out a little and in combination with how unbelievable we played.....that was game. Let's not forget we had, at least, 2 free headers and 2 more open looks (remember Morgan's miss?) that I can think of off the top of my head that easily could have been goals.
Just a dominating performance. That was quality like nothing we've seen for some time.
