Saltiest country with the Pearl harbor vengeance tweets, omg.

Most of the tweets I saw are people telling idiots that those jokes are stupid.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Meanwhile USMNT living that poverty lifestyle

 

[daxgame]

Apparently that's how the play in the pacific.

U23 matches, btw

 

[Spacebar]

Stop giving dumb ass people attention with the Pearl Harbor jokes. Just enjoy the game and cheer for your team. Go USA!

 

[ibyea]

*watches replay* ;_; Japan you are breaking my heart.

 

[Scrupulous]

Don't understand how iwabuchi cant get a start when Japan have no cutting edge.

 

[-MarcusD-]

 

[Delta Assault]

I'm gonna keep watching this game.

 

[BY2K]

What tweets are you guys talking about?

 

[Trey]

Higlights.

Dat 4th goal from midfield lol

What a disrespectful ass shot.

 

[Envelope]

Don't understand how iwabuchi cant get a start when Japan have no cutting edge.

if she's not the third sub....

 

[Cerberus]

WOW

Damn it, too late for the party... this is unbelievable


Lloyd best player of the tournament now?

Yep, Lloyd is getting the Golden Ball.

 

[Redd]

I wanted us to be up by more but 4-1, eh I'll take it.

 

[PeskyToaster]

Tweets don't sound so bad. The US was the victim and we're making the jokes so doesn't really offend me.

 

[BadHand]

morons tweet on twitter, news at 11

It's a shame that this is what other nations see though. I would be ashamed, if I were American. I would just want this to be about football. I mean, USA are playing a good game, that's enough.

The jingoism isn't necessary.

 

[marrec]

That 3rd goal by Lloyd tho guys.

Goalie so far out lol

 

[everyday math]

A shame we can't win with class.

Twitter represents an entire country?

It's freaking Twitter.

 

[giga]

What a disrespectful ass shot.

After you let three balls in the net in 15 minutes? There's no respect left to even disrespect.

 

[Envelope]

can you make a new thread if you want to talk about how racist americans are? this one is for football

 

[Ganzlinger]

Guys, stop caring about these twitter assholes. There are idiots everywhere and only idiots will think that every American thinks and behave like that.

 

[Brashnir]

Yep, Lloyd is getting the Golden Ball.

She is such a frustrating player at times, but she has been on fire the last couple games.

 

[Kinsella]

It's a shame that this is what other nations see though. I would be ashamed, if I were American. I would just want this to be about football. I mean, USA are playing a good game, that's enough.

So get off Twitter and your blood pressure will drop.

 

[Mesousa]

The jingoism isn't necessary.

If you aren't American you are taking this pretty horribly.

They are jokes...nothing more.

It isn't any worse than the "FREEDOM" shit people on here say whenever the US team is playing. Hell, how many people have been killed since pearl harbor in the name of "Freedom"

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

That 3rd goal by Lloyd tho guys.

Goalie so far out lol

The goalie completely blanked out for a second, she could of gotten that shot with ease if she moved back without hesitation.

 

[Arkeband]

I'd prefer the USA win, but it's less fun watching a total rout than it is a close game, so while I appreciate crazy plays like the half-field goal kick, I want Japan to give the U.S. girls a run for their money this second half.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

can you make a new thread if you want to talk about how racists americans are? this one is for football

This needs to happen. We are trying to have some fun here

 

[elrechazado]

Guys, stop caring about these twitter assholes. There are idiots everywhere and only idiots will think that every American thinks and behave like that.

Seriously.

 

[marrec]

The goalie completely blanked out for a second, she could of gotten that shot with ease if she moved back without hesitation.

I don't think she thought it was on goal, a moment of quiet reflection before she realized what happened. lol

 

[Oersted]

can you make a new thread if you want to talk about how racist americans are? this one is for football

Goes hand in hand, welcome to football. But yeah, they ain't worth much attention.

[Delta Assault]

She is such a frustrating player at times, but she has been on fire the last couple games.

She did also score 2 goals to win us the Olympic final 3 years ago.

Carli Lloyd is Japan's weakness in finals.

 

[elty]

Japan did recovered a bit after the nightmare 20 minutes, but that's not going to be enough.

I think they will concede again when they run out of steam, which they always do at second half.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

I know....

 

[Oozer3993]

I've never been so nervous rooting for a team with a 3 goal lead. Maybe it's the Cleveland sports fan in me.

 

[Zoolader]

Those gifs, omg.

 

[BadHand]

I'm not taking it horribly. I just don't see the point in irrelevant comments that bring down the game. It invalidates the good work the USA players are putting in.

It's a shame, that's all.

 

[Cerberus]

She is such a frustrating player at times, but she has been on fire the last couple games.

Lloyd might be the most frustrating player to watch. She can be a beast in the biggest games though so I'm glad she's on the team.

 

[Brashnir]

She did also score 2 goals to win us the Olympic final 3 years ago.

Carli Lloyd is Japan's weakness in finals.

Yeah, I remember. Another of those moments that made me forget her frequent mental lapses.

That said, it's better to show up in the clutch and make lapses elsewhere than the opposite. #TeamCarli

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I know....

Ha. He can't escape his El Generico mannerisms.

2nd half let's go!

 

[Spacebar]

I've never been so nervous rooting for a team with a 3 goal lead. Maybe it's the Cleveland sports fan in me.

Yea, same here. U.S. Needs to not let an early goal happen at the start.

 

[trixx]

Yikes that looks like my ass =/

 

[aftercompletion]

The saddest thing is that I saw all those tweets coming.

Mens world cup by this time they already had gifs of Nazi bombers dropping soccer balls out of the bomb bays, so, yeah...

 

[The Chosen One]

Simple solution. Get off twitter and actually watch the game. Who cares what twitter-bots say.

 

[Envelope]

second half go!

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Holy shit at that flick

Lloyd's feeling it

 

[Ryuuroden]

I'm not taking it horribly. I just don't see the point in irrelevant comments that bring down the game. It invalidates the good work the USA players are putting in.

It's a shame, that's all.

It's a tad bit over the top to say it invalidates how well the USA team is playing. The tweets have nothing to do with the team on the field. Carli Lloyd isn't tweeting it. Bad taste jokes are universal and not relegated to any single country.

 

[plasmawave]

Lol pearl harbor is trending world wide. smh

 

[Ganzlinger]

I can see Hope Solo, Sauerbrunn, Johnston, Klingenberg, Brian, Lloyd and Rapinoe at the team of the tournament.

 

[ReadingRambo]

Lol pearl harbor is trending world wide. smh

THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE

 

[Envelope]

this defense is still awful!
