View Full Version : USA 5 - Japan 2
And in an era when the FIFA scandals have rocked the foundations of international men's soccer 'sportsmanship', the USA women's soccer team comes out swinging in Vancouver and wins its 3rd international Worldcup title.
Outstanding! :lifter

I was impressed with the beauty of the soccer played in all of the elimination matches, and I think the Women's international teams were excellent ambassadors for the sport. Attendance and viewership were way up, and hopefully FIFA takes notice for future women's world cups.
The US team was certainly best in the tourney. My 2 favorite matches were France v. Germany and US v. Germany - both hard fought matches. Japan v. England wasn't too far behind, but it was heartbreaking to see England go out the way they did.

The goal from midfield devastating, fortunately the Japanese won;t likely need to worry about death threats.

The seeds of a new generation of women's superstars has been planted.
