Most talented team in the world - at every position except maybe Keeper - and this dingleberry can’t muster a lineup to score a goal against a fucking hockey team. I haven’t ever seen such a shit show coaching mess ever. It’s time for the USWNT to hire an American women to bring this team back to respectable standing.
throughout the tournament:
Not a fan of their coach and his tactics especially against Australia which was shameful.
Age is a factor with several of their key players;
Morgan has lost a step which is so noticeable .
Heath looked diminished in skills from her fabulous WC in 2019. Maybe she is injured. Williams should have played more minutes than Heath.
Dahlkemper was awful in this tournament giving the ball up way too many times.
Rapinoe’s set pieces were way off in this tournament on corner kicks.
Dunn plays out of position because they have no one else to play in the back.
Lloyd is 39 and probably her last tournament.
It’s not the coaches fault when 9 goals are called back due to offsides. Never seen that before it is ridiculous . Thst is on the players and their awareness on the field.
They lacked offensive continuity throughout the tournament.
sometimes it requires a kick in the teeth in order to start a reset.
Happy for what they have accomplished in the last 20 years. The world is catching up and our dominance had to end at some point, like basketball.
I disagree this was a factor. The team looked confused and frustrated, not tired and old. But sure, let’s say age was the problem. Who picked the team? This is the most talented team in the tourney - if not the youngest. The coach was undressed in every game.
way, wayyyyy too much energy expended on fuckin' soccer here
And yes, track is having an awful Olympics save for a few exceptions (Crouser, the 400m women’s hurdles with Sydney McLaughlin and Dalilah Muhammad, the women’s pole vault)
Anyone see the 14 year old Chinese diver dominate?
Absolutely destroyed the competition with two perfect dives (.5 point away with one judge from three perfect dives) and destroyed the Olympic record for most points scored.
It's one of the most impressive/dominating performances I've ever seen and the fact she's 14 is insane. She literally beat out the Chinese defending gold medal champ from 5 years ago. They didn't even send the champ to the Olympics and finished 1/2 in the standings.

That was incredible!
Incredible win for Steveson in heavyweight wrestling for USA

That was dramatic from the first hole to the last. Nelly lost a 4 shot lead and then a 3 shot lead, but somehow hung on to win by a shot after her opponents, Mone Inami and Lydia Ko, missed birdie putts on 18 to tie
going into the last day. However, China has 38 gold medals to the USA's 36. So who wins the most gold medals will come down to the final day.
Not that I care about it all that much, but the way I look at "scoring" the Olympics is a 3-2-1 system, i.e. 3 for gold, 2 for silver, 1 for bronze. Golds are worth more but silver and bronze are worth something too.
On that basis, without doing the exact math, it's not even close (in the USA's favor).

Winner has a easy road to the medals. Loser will have to win out.
Could be wrong. We'll see in a minute.
So were they inspired by Manfred's monstrosity, or vice versa?
Kind of surprised she is back.
The ToddFather doesn't lay down any stinkin' bunts! He just strikes out looking at two pitches right down the pipe.

god forbid we play some small ball!
USA goes 1-2
Northern NJ's own Sydney McGlaughlin wins gold.

From Union Catholic, sort of Central. Rutgers couldn't keep her I guess.
They will go without a medal for a 4th straight Games
