Oh, and if you are wondering why you haven't heard anything about the World Cup this year....


it's the Woman's World Cup.

The diehard soccer fans here, old English guys who gather to watch the games at the English pub, are pumped for this Tourney. Some of them even showed up to watch France play.

Plus, as a bonus, Canada is actually competing!

China lost? I'm shocked.

SHOCKED.

Argentina - Japan 0 - 0

Everyone listed here, of course, is playing for second place.

USA - Thailand 13-0 A new record. I knew the US Women were good, we won the last cup after all, but dayum!

I saw it at 3-0. Took a phone call and came back to 6-0. Insane.

Likes I sed.

Well, here's hoping the US crushes Sweden. Or at least ties them.

We need the US to win their group, is what I'm saying, so we won't have to play them till the final. Otherwise, they're our first match in the knockout. Our only match

I'd watch the match but since the US is dead set against me watching it without buying overpriced cable, I guess I'll just see the score when the match is over.

Plenty of websites that’ll allow you to watch it for free so long as you agree to host their malware.

So I'm at work without the two firewalls and anti-virus programs I have, etc. I don't trust IT here, so I'm not going to try it. At home I'd feel more comfortable.

It doesn't really seem like a match to make an effort to watch anyway. It's just the last game of the Group Stage and y'all are already through.

Geez, Dave. I wasn’t being serious.
Saying “Watch World Cup for free just click here!” Is tantamount to saying “Free malware!”

Instead of Daenerys and Arya in a few years, we're going to have little girls with names like Megan and Rose running around.

Sue Bird's girlfriend and a young Badger footy star are all it takes.

Wanna bet they don't get invited to the White House?

I don't know, man. There's a lot of nice looking blondes dressed in orange.

(I'm really only saying this to add that, when watching these international tournaments, I'm always a little struck by how homogeneous so many teams are. I'm so used to seeing a little bit of everywhere on Canada's squad . . . when hockey's not involved)

Congrats to the US team

They probably won't want to go anyway.

I would have been fine either team winning.

Congratulations to the winning team!

This article has a nice fan chant from France, as well as a bit about the story of Trump and Megan Rapinoe!
