^Love the avatar, haha.
Yes, what a comeback that was. Honestly for me, the US deserved to win that game. To play the way they did after going down to 10 men to hold Brazil to extra time. The goal to put the Brazilians in front that should have been disallowed because it looked like the player who delivered the cross was half a step offsides. The theatrics of the Brazilian players in extra time was appalling and disgrace to the game, especially the player who went down with a back injury on the pitch to be carried off on a stretcher, then miraculously run back on the field of play as if nothing happened; she must have talked with Dani Alves before the match.
Even despite all that, I'm very impressed with what the women were able to accomplish yesterday. Now if only the senior men's team can step up...
