Congrats to your gals. I just saw the highlights, time differences are the only reason I won't watch some of the matches live.

To the modder that deleted my post, you delete my post just because I mentioned that some country use other players??
I invite to study the "discriminatory theory" and "biggotery" that lead these Euroipean countries to colonize this continent Africa.
Why? has someone invited them to colonize and enslave (at some time) the continent and split it in several part against their cultures?
This is the biggest bigoterie that happened in history.
That country was eliminated today by Australia. Not to say I'm happy with the result.

The discriminatory theory you will study it well when you are traveling in a port where the passengers are split in two parts:
1. The highly ranked passenger with EU and other International passeport.
2. the "sous-classés" those with a poor African. or third world passeport.

Given the population of England compared to Australia you would think that England would win. However, the Aussies have proved to be very tough to beat. Should be a great match.

I'm very pleased with this final four. It's the first time in memory there are no annoying teams. France was the last one I was determined to get rid of. That is a dirty team in traffic. The theory seems to be if everybody throws elbows and grabs jerseys they can't distinguish enough to call any of them. Fortunately the referee had the guts to wipe out the cheater goal last night.
Normally I root against Spain, due to memories of that men's team 10-12 years ago that always hogged the ball but did nothing with it. This Spain women's team has similar ball possession capabilities but it is very clever and entertaining. However, there is also the vulnerability, as exploited by Japan.
Damn shame that Sam Kerr isn't healthy. She was a shadow of herself last night.
Failure to hit the target on penalties, even with the goalie going the wrong way, continues to be the standout variable. France did it last night just like the United States 3 times. I'm sure all the shell brains celebrated the American defeat, which defied such odds that I guarantee real time was something like 95% likelihood while leading 3-2 in the bottom of the 4th.
The referees have been pathetic wimps in terms of surrendering to anything they hear in their ear. Blatant penalties have been excused. I guarantee FIFA is awarding those prized referee assignments to the ones they know will meekly bow to whatever they are told.

Some of the tackles in Colombia v England were crazed.
I'll also never understand why they don't halt play immediately on OBVIOUS offsides. Feel bad for the Colombian lady who was taken out after the English lady was clearly offsides, the Colombians weren't going to get the ball in any kind of breakout capability position and the hectic play lead to her injury. now if it's close fine but that want the case this time.

Agree on the refs. The shirt puller when the goal was disallowed should also have been booked, They did it all the time.
Aussies soaked up first 35min and then had the better of remaining 85min, some very close chances including one cleared off line by defender
France also had one that looked like a teenage boy (#5) and another like a rugby flanker (#3)
Yes, Kerr doesn't look fully fit, or bit rusty,l but how good is young Fowler?

Yeah, they have just topped Ash Barty. Next up is Cathy Freeman.
