Same barrage with no result so far

the USA are going to have to give us all the goals we've been missing out on. or will Thailand offer similar resistance?

And with that game on pause Fox has taken to a LOT of USWNT bus shots and groups of fans.

Hold on, a football game got stopped because it was raining?

chile defended p well all game then were totally pish and for 2 goals in the last 10 minutes
(second was a nice piece of individual play to be fair to the swedish number 7 but given so much space)

If I had money on ten goals or more I'd be much more furious but those were absolute joke decisions. Can we get VAR working?
― imago, Tuesday, 11 June 2019 19:48 (four years ago) link
Yeah i mean death to the great satan obv, but those were just silly. Of course, it could be that VAR were screaming at the ref to give those pens

I mean...we're not talking Germany-Brazil 2014 or anything but I typed this tweet and sent it:
Can a World Cup referee use VAR to call up the 'stop stop he's already dead' GIF?— Ned Raggett (@NedRaggett) June 11, 2019
And then I looked back on the feed and they scored another goal.
So I came here to comment, and while I was typing this, they scored ANOTHER goal.

let it be known that if usa wins 13-0 they will jinx themselves and lose the cup
― boobie, Tuesday, 11 June 2019 20:49 (four years ago) link
Seriously though, wouldn't a WC with 16 teams make more sense? Bottom tier is cannon fodder, way beyond 'they'll lose but it's a good lesson'.
(13-0)

Lol there was a quip about that from the Fox commentator about the possibility of goal differential coming into play later in the tournament

Damn it, I had £1.50 on 14-0.
fwiw Thailand have beaten local minnows by comparable margins so don’t feel too sorry for them.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 11 June 2019 20:57 (four years ago) link
Sprinting to keep it in play at 13-0 in the 90th minute. The coach leaping up to pump fists and high five for the 13th goal. Extremely small time

Not feeling sorry for them as much as I'm wondering why (how?) they're here at all. I think USA's display proves how fast women's football is developing. With a fast evolution, the margin between the highest standard and mediocrity is enormous. Germany (men) beat Estonia 8-0 tonight; same diff, but it happened in qualification.
(I put € 1.00 on 15-0 just after half time)
