The second spot in the 2019 Women's World Cup final is up for grabs Wednesday when surprising Netherlands takes on in-form Sweden. The winner will go up against the United States on Sunday after the reigning champs knocked out England on Tuesday. The Dutch have cruised through the tournament with a 5-0-0 record. They started off the round of 16 with a 2-1 win over Japan before beating Italy 2-0 in the quarters, and they are currently in the middle of their greatest World Cup in history. Sweden, meanwhile, has as much confidence as anyone. After being Canada 1-0 in the round of 16, the Swedes stunned one of the favorites, Germany, 2-1 in the quarters.

I think you’re right. OK then, Sweden it is.

BTW, that front row of Swede girls in the team pic look like they’re all being relieved at the same time.

From the little that I saw, England was so much better than France. But, against us, England had the tying goal called back(saw it) and missed a penalty kicked(didn’t see it).

They should have won that game.

There was a Dutch diver in the Olympics in the 1990s. Daphne Jongjans. She was yummy.

Tying goal was disallowed because it was offside and that penalty kick should have been easy-peasy but Naeher was up to the task.

If its still tied at the end of the second half, there will be 30 minute extra time divided into two 15 minute halves.

If there is still no decision, the team scoring the most penalty shootout goals wins.

Half-time 0-0. These are evenly matched teams.

More stoppage time coming up. If its still tied after that, we’ll be going to extra time.
