Exactly what gets me watching the women's World Cup.

They have looked like the best team in the tournament since their first game. When the knockouts were finalized, I picked England v. Spain the finals, with a Spain win.

US has/had several key players out due to injury, did they not?

I watched the entire USA-Sweden match. The US had their chances but couldn't put one in the net including the Horan header off the lumber from a corner. Good GK by Sweden and they kept their shape. I'm surprised they didn't press more. The US struggled with it the few times they pressed.

Go woke, go home. Very happy to wake up and see that these ungrateful, unpatriotic losers lost. Think I saw that nasty woman (or man) Rapinoe cost them in a way too? Even better !

Good for Sweden. Now retire the purple haired P.O.S. and start putting together a team of athletes with the main purpose of improving as a soccer team that represents the United States. The women's soccer team was once the darlings of sports. Now, since their main purpose was woke politics and disrespect and not representing the sport or our country, they've earned the disdain of half of the U.S. This was easily the most disliked team in American sports and for good reason.

I'll never understand how haters like you cheered for other countries because the US team is supposedly too woke.

First of all you need to differentiate team from a few individuals. Second, as we discussed earlier, you cheered for communist Vietnam in the first game because the US team was too liberal in your eyes, lol. That's like cheering for N. Korea because you hate dictatorships. Then it was Sweden of all teams who you were happy for beating the US. Sweden, a “socialist” country with a welfare system that's almost without limits.

It's easy to understand.....treason is the worst crime, worse than fighting for an enemy. Traitors are treated worse than enemy POWs.

I'm not saying the US women's team are traitors, but if you saw them like that, of course you would want them to lose, just like you would want a traitor returned to your camp for trial, even if it meant letting an enemy solider go as an exchange.
