[asylumseeker]

ah wonder if dem ladies practice penalties?

Yuh hadda ask?

[FF]

I bet they did. Waldrum is thorough...

You can't legislate for when the pressure is on though... I don't know if we won the toss but kicking second definitely hurt.

Can we beat Mexico?

On a good day it would be a tough ask....the fact that we have only one day of rest before the next match makes it even tougher.

Mexico and USA will also only have one day of rest.

We obviously need to work on our penalty kicks as scoring 0 out of 3 chances don't look good.

I would quibble with the penalty order, and at least one of the kickers.

Kudos to CRC. I like the choice of a lefty taking the 3rd kick. Frankly, we made it easy for CRC because there was no disguise or guile on any of the PKs.

On another night, my captain puts that in the net, but she wouldn't have taken my first pk. Lauren was always going to be about power over placement.

Brilliant job by the CR keeper... gutted for the ladies, but have to give credit where it's due, she was phenomenal when her team needed her to be.  Chins up Women Warriors, still 3rd place to fight for on Sunday, and yet another bite of the WC apple.

[FF]

Agreed. I wasnt putting Maylee first either. Didn't like her body language

[Bakes]

oh scroll to the right u will see where i told cordner work on penalty kicks

Cordner didn't kick... Attin-Johnson, Hutchinson and Shade did.

True, but I don't see that game going 120 minutes and ending in PKs.....but who knows.

[Sam]

I doh care who vex with me.

Tasha St Louis and Maylee Atti Johnson should not be starters on T&T team.

Good luck to de ladies next game.

Love you all.

Why did the coach bring back Tasha, I really eh know.

But de ladies fight hard in de second half.

A for fight.

We off de ball movement is poor.

[asylumseeker]

Last year I was fortunate to be at the NJCAA D-I Women's tourney ... there was a player there who took a couple penalties during competiton ... she relied on an unorthodox zig zag approach to the ball that mesmerized both keepers she faced. Her entire movement (fluid) and contact with the ball was rehearsed. Nothing about our penalties tonight looked considered.

Put it this way: if CRC researched our kickers, they couldn't have done any better than tonight's outcome. I doh think the outcome turned on the CRC keeper being excellent. We didn't take convincing kicks.

Anyway, there should be more Tony DiCicco on air and less of the rambling others who bring so little to commentary.

Attin-Johnson had an excellent game in the second half.  Not sure what game you was watching.

[Peong]

I was trying to watch but had to leave. Tough luck dey, but we still have a chance.
Recover and rebound ladies.

Maylee took a very good pk on Momday vs Guat.  But good luck to the ladies in the next game. God Bless!!!

[gawd on pitch]

The women warriors could have played much better in the first half. Too much princess business.. not enough warrior.

I am confident they will make world cup. I watching US play Mexico now. US up 2-0 in the first half. We go beat Mexico!
