This game is soooo close; Swedes are basically camped right in the goal itself and can't get the ball to go in
I wonder how this tournament will be viewed in 10-15 years. Goal total and the medal paint a different picture.

So, a little late but it is and isn’t a big get. Obviously Alex Morgan is Alex Morgan but there are some other factors to consider. Not sure how it goes in MLS or other leagues but for the NWSL, expansion teams pretty much always pull in one big soccer name to kick things off. ACFC grabbed Christen Press and Orlando started off with Alex coincidentally a few years ago. She’s a California native and the expectation was that both she as well as Press would end up on the California teams whenever they popped up. Exciting signing for San Diego nonetheless and both the Wave and ACFC are shaping up to have really exciting rosters, especially for year one
Now you might be thinking you’ve had a bad day at work… but… have you gifted the #1 team in the a world a hat trick of Own Goals?
Looks like she just made a poor choice or was lazy on at least two of them. Didn’t think it was her skill being that poor.
Been so pumped to have season tickets for the first ACFC season and then when the schedule came out realized I’ll be out of town the first two home games. Bummer
Still waiting on SD Wave to drop their real kits. It was a good match on Saturday against ACFC though. Definitely gonna try to snag tix to the home opener at Snapdragon.
