I don't think this is a bad thing. Sweden is underrated. Brazil generally gets better the further they advance so let's take them on now. Aside from their last game; they really haven't been playing well. Time for Hope Solo to step up after being snubbed in the '07 World Cup against them and Abby Wambach needs to step up and finally score. O'Reilly hopefully will be game ready and we have ourselves a game. Also no disrespect to France and England but I'd rather be sitting on their side of the bracket. The other side with Germany,Japan,Sweden, and Australia is going to be a blood bath.
I know, I know... the U.S. will move on, but they face Brazil. I actually have mixed feelings because I think Australia has shown a good side. The U.S. has shown some defensive cracks and you never know when one of the Brazilians will break some great individual play. Did you see their first goal today? Wow!
Looks like Norway will be eliminated by Australia and Brazil going in knockout round as #1 seed (no surprise). USA win or tie and they play Australia....lose and they play Brazil.
I don't discount Australia...they have a really good team but still rather play them than Brazil in the first knock out round.
One huge problem was the goal keeper wearing a similar color uniform as the rest of the team. The officials should have made her change it before the match started.
As for Hope Solo, yes, she is very attractive and probably one of the primary reasons why she gets a lot of Nike endorsements. It's one thing to be a great athlete but to be a great athlete and easy on the eyes = $$$$$.
