Hoping Carpenter isn't a client Wombat, because she's playing like Storm Roux first half.

i wonder if raso is playing with a broken hand or thumb

Close half of football but our girls were getting on top in the latter part of the half, so it’s a shame that half time came when it did.

sam kerr's header would have been the goal of the tournament

Couldn't link the midfield with our attack first 30, then just clicked and dominated last 15. Very unlucky to get pinged on that goal. Great finish. Real shame.

What an appalling decision to disallow that goal.

Also, our keeper is genuinely shithouse. Letting that goal go in is just rubbish.

We've played poorly. Attack isn't linking, and our midfield are playing too far off the attack.

Have you watched any of the games up to this? Did you watch any of the W-League where she was goalkeeper of the season ? She is the reason we have progressed so far in this tournament.

Yes, her footwork may have poor on that one occasion but she is far from “genuinely shithouse”.

She's been hopeless all Olympics. I watched all the games except the GBR one and she hasn't been good.

Pure poppycock and I genuinely question your knowledge of the game with this call.

I agree. Lucky goal. Definitely a game where the result could have gone the other way, though Rolfo was outstanding, But we did not get the luck of the green, and last 30 Sam was cooked. Raso makes a lot of poor decisions for mine. Fowler is awesome wish we had her on earlier.

Thought Catley and Yallop had excellent games, was sad to to see Yallop subbed.

Talk of how we’re the fittest side. I’d say we looked fitter than some Swedes but not as fit as others.

The goal was part unlucky but part poor decision-making. with such a deflection the decision should have been to come and collect it on the full and take the spin out of play. It only bounced on the 6 yard box.

So, why was the goal disallowed ?…cause I saw nothing wrong

Two Aussie players were in an offside position blocking their players as they came though. They were warned but it was pretty innocuous and the foul was debatable.

I suppose if you play these tactics you run the risk of the referee blowing the whistle, especially after you are warned.
