really sloppy by both sides last ~ 10 minutes  
ColHowPepper : 7/2/2019 4:25 pm : link
after England goal, US moved their line higher, seems to have had better results
Wow, that was a lucky Offside call  
montanagiant : 7/2/2019 4:26 pm : link
Need to mark White much better
Terrible  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:26 pm : link
call. No offsides. Tie at worst.

How is it a bad call. They use hawkeye to determine offside just like they do for goal line technology. I think that it wasn't an obvious error by the linesman though, because it was close

England had a call like that go in their favor vs Cameroon  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:28 pm : link
when Cameroon got a goal back in the round of 16. Now I think the clear and obvious error standard should be used but by the current interpretation, offside is offside, even by 1 mm
I hate that call....  
Tesla : 7/2/2019 4:28 pm : link
maybe she had a toe ahead of the last defender, but maybe not. Either way that should be a goal. I especially hate that it was made via VAR and not live.

Soccer needs to reform that kind of BS call where a tiny part of the player is maybe offsides.
Probably  
Nick in LA : 7/2/2019 4:29 pm : link
80/20 possession this half and not in the way we want.

foxsports.com, but you need to have cable service in your name to login.
Offsides..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:29 pm : link
are usually close calls, but White was clearly ahead of the line. Her upper body and forward leg.
It feels  
sshin05 : 7/2/2019 4:30 pm : link
like the USA are back on their heels. Not sure if its fatigue or frustration of a tough opponent. They need to be patient and work the ball instead of the homerun. They need to regroup.
You see tight offside calls like that routinely  
Cenotaph : 7/2/2019 4:30 pm : link
You have to draw the line for offside somewhere - whether it's a toe, a half step, etc. Any bit ahead, it's offside.
Tobin has lost a lot of weight since WC began  
ColHowPepper : 7/2/2019 4:33 pm : link
she looks gassed
In this..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:34 pm : link
game, possession isn't really indicative of anything. The US has been playing back purposely as a tactic.

IMO a call like that may be technically correct but it goes against the spirit of the offisides rule. White did not grab an advantage by being a hair beyond the last defender as opposed to be precisely even with them or a hair behind. The original purpose of the rule was to prevent players from hanging back in an opponents end without the ball, the current rule simply ruins beautiful play and goals, which soccer needs more of not less.
Carli Lloyd about to come on  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:34 pm : link
and they need some fresh legs out there. England gets away with a foul near their own box
wierd  
Jay in Toronto : 7/2/2019 4:34 pm : link
even reddit source seems to have been pulled (don't have foxsports) ;(
That's a theatrical dive by Ellen White  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:35 pm : link
LOL at that penalty shout
My God  
montanagiant : 7/2/2019 4:36 pm : link
Englands a whiny ass team
Dive  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:36 pm : link
by White. No penalty.
While I won't argue  
Cenotaph : 7/2/2019 4:38 pm : link
that I sometimes would like to see the offsides not called on very close ones, it's hard to argue there isn't an advantage gained...it only takes a tiny bit of separation sometimes
Holy shit that's a bad call by VAR  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link
Ellen White wasn't touched
Definite pen  
Oscar : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link

weakest  
Nick in LA : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link
penalty I have ever seen called
Wow..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link
there was no contact!! How can a penalty be awarded?
Don't  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link
understand that call either.
White missed the ball  
montanagiant : 7/2/2019 4:39 pm : link
Then fell
Karma..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
bitches!!
Terrible penalty and a save by Naeher  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
Ball don't lie. Shit call by VAR but even worse penalty
A  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
weak penalty call followed by a weak penalty kick.
Karma  
montanagiant : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
That was a BS penalty
LOL  
MookGiants : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
at that penalty attempt.
That should..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
have been a yellow or red for simulation
She went right into her plant leg it was a pen  
Oscar : 7/2/2019 4:40 pm : link
Terribly taken.

I did think England was offside to start the chance but they didn’t look at that.
White simply whiffed  
DC Gmen Fan : 7/2/2019 4:41 pm : link
. baby
Hey at least the net result came out right  
Cenotaph : 7/2/2019 4:41 pm : link
whew...
White  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:41 pm : link
should have gotten a yellow for flopping, especially after the VAR.

There was no contact, White just missed the ball and took a dive. Justice done as the penalty attempt was terrible
Save!!!!!  
BigBlue in Keys : 7/2/2019 4:41 pm : link
Now finish it!!
just turned it on.  
madgiantscow009 : 7/2/2019 4:42 pm : link
nothing but flopping so far.
England  
AcidTest : 7/2/2019 4:42 pm : link
has to push everyone forward.
Millie Bright sent off for a second yellow  
dpinzow : 7/2/2019 4:42 pm : link
England down to 10 women
I don’t know what you were watching there was contacr  
Oscar : 7/2/2019 4:42 pm : link
See what you want I guess didn’t matter in the end.
There's been some weak Pen calls  
Cenotaph : 7/2/2019 4:43 pm : link
so far in this WWC, but would have been tough to see a Semi-Final tied on that one...
This is exactly..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 7/2/2019 4:43 pm : link
why players continue to flop. When they are rewarded, they get a penalty shot.

Where is the disincentive? Cards for simulation are rare. Red cards extremely rare.

White just slipped and fell. If that's called in the Premier League there would be fan unrest in the stands
