US 1-0 Japan
=-)
here's hoping we beat NZ on the 12th
- - - -
Alright, Norway beat NZ so is through to the next round, so here's my attempt at analyzing the group (never tried this before)
-If the US beat NZ, we're through to the knockout round
-If the US tie NZ, we're through if Norway beat or tie Japan; if Japan win, we have to qualify as a 3rd place team
-If the US lose to NZ, we're out if Japan win; if Norway beat or tie Japan, we have to qualify as a 3rd place team

US 4-0 NZ
^.^
our half of the bracket looks pretty easy now, actually, as we play Canada next (rank 9), and assuming we win that, we play the winner of China-Japan (ranks 14 and 10) - so hopefully that means a fairly easy road to the gold medal match =-)

alright, looks good. We could have faced Brazil but now it looks better. Its probable that we'll end up playing China. Thats going to be tough.

looks like a date with Canada, I am thinking we can take that game by atleast 2 goals. My girl is on fire between the sticks.

Its probable that we'll end up playing China. Thats going to be tough. I dunno.... I think Japan can keep up their momentum from their 5-1 rout of Norway. They also outrank China anyway, I think we'll be seeing Japan in the semi's. Though as long as China don't make it to the gold medal match and the US make it to some medal, I'll be happy. |

YYYEEESSH!!!!  USA 2:1 Canada (AET) and it looks like we will be playing Japan, as it's China 0:1 Japan in the middle of the second half at the moment -EDIT- make that 0:2 at the 80th minute ^.^

bring on Japan, our girls will drop the bomb on those chicks (no pun intended). I can see gold for the disappointment at WC 07.
