    Quite possibly some of the worst penalty kicks I have ever seen at any level of football, all made for the drama I suppose….

    Bollards to the Yanks!.
    I remember when they put us out in the knockout rounds 4 or 5 years ago, and thought they were clever doing the 'cup of tea' gesture.

    Its interesting to hear what the players think about the Yanks, and their usual arrogance in sport.
    One of the Dutch players has called them big mouthed lol, and said she was happy to see them go out.
    Journalists there called the campaign a "catastrophe" while fans said they were "confused" by the defeat. :rolleyes:
