Man, women's soccer is what I picture a 4th division of MLS would be like.

ya sit down and say "Im gonna watch them and support them because its canada" but then after a while you ask yourself "why am i watching them again?" and you just stop watching lol

If Sophie Schmidt is the best Canada has for delivery of set pieces, then the gals are in trouble...

/Pepe Tencredi should have buried her chance last night.

Could you ask them to wait a few minutes. I havent made my bets on the games yet.

Italy vs. Croatia at an empty stadium in Split, Croatia.

/Turkey won the earlier game 1-nil

 

[jstewismybastardson]

The last time Italy defeated Croatia was in April 1942 in Genoa: 4-0.

Okay, that was a crazy five minutes: First, Buffon saves a penalty kick, then Italy goes down the field and scores, but it's ruled offside and then while several Italians are protesting, Croatia goes down the pitch and scores.

Bottom line it's 1-nil Croatia.

Oh, and Gigi gets a yellow card for too much dissent.

This Croatia - Italy match has a high school feel to it (empty stadium with a track surrounding the pitch). I smell another Cathal Kelly article.

Italy levels things at 1-1 courtesy of a Condreva cheeky penalty kick (he dinked it right down the middle).

lol

so italy scores a goal that is ruled offside when it wasnt ???
they argue
croatia goes down and scores a goal that was actually offsides but it counts ???


Italy got scored on because they were too busy arguing with the ref - SBNation.com
