24 shots on goal? Holy hell.

I’m used to facing that in rec league. But the pros? Jeebus.

Germany advances with a 3-0 victory over Nigeria. Australia vs Norway at the top of the hour. Sam Kerr is tied with Alex Morgan in the Golden Boot race.
 
Re: World Soccer XXIX: Pro/Rel USA! just kidding!

Norway has shut down Sam Kerr and earned a 1-0 lead. Now late in the half a Norway defender is called for a handball in the box. That seems like a bad call.

And after VAR the penalty has been rescinded.

Kerr finally gets a goal but she was offside by inches...still 1-0 Norway after an hour.
 
Re: World Soccer XXIX: Pro/Rel USA! just kidding!

Wow. One moment (and a set piece) is all it takes. A nice goal off a corner in the 83rd minute ties the game at 1.
 
Re: World Soccer XXIX: Pro/Rel USA! just kidding!

Impressive display by Norway. I'm an Australia fan and on paper it was the better team but Norway played a great game and deserved the win.
 
Aussies down to 10 in extra time now after a straight red.
Looks like a fairly easy decision to me, don’t understand the complaints.

That stadium is empty. Woof.

As a casual fan, I have heard of exactly 1 US player (Altidore).
 
My god, that's the reanimated corpse of Michael Bradley out there!
I figured you would’ve at least recognized Tim Ream since he plays for Fulham.

Also, Bradley is very indicative of the state of the player pool. He’s not great but there’s not anybody better.

Nice ball by Pulisic there, Long with his first international goal. 1-0 US.
