Interesting off-side tactics by IC
How was that called a foul.
Ref is shit.
Women's refs are seemingly very whistle happy. Any slight touch and bam, free kick.

I suppose you've got to be, when you're falling onto that devilish artificial turf.

The color commentator doesn't like it when Ivory Coast goes in to challenge

Some of these challenges are quite cynical really
I mean. Compared to the men's game the only thing I genuinely like more is the women's game usually has less flopping and slight contact whistles. By far. Even when it's genuinely a foul lol.
This game has more fouls than usual but still less than an average men game. Flopping is starting to creep in more. And in the NBA too...

That was beautiful
German commentator just keeps criticizing the team.
Everything she was saying felt fair given the change between the first and second half, to me at least.

I'm not complaining about diving - I've only seen one so far in this entire tournament, and I really admire that the women just get straight back up.
I'm on about differences in skill/physicality resulting in cheap (and wrong) free kicks. Two players went shoulder to shoulder earlier, with nothing really in it, one fell over, foul... It wasn't a dive, but no chance was it a foul.
How did that happen?
Yet another defensive howler from Ivory Coast...
Ivory Coast have nothing to boast, as they're toast. Prepare for a roast, ladies!

The team was leading by five goals, of course they're no longer particularly concentrated or invested. Same thing happened last year against Brazil.

The shoulder thing happens a lot in the men's game too. Small players getting fouls for instance when a big player wins a header or cHallenge, and a flop usually sells it.
110 degrees Farenheit
holy fuck, that's awful.
huh, where?

Not with a coming together this soft, though. It was barely a touch!

Sideline reporter said that's the temperature of the field.

Germany is just taking it easy now
Sideline reporter said that's the temperature of the field.
Wha... is that because the turf absorbs heat or something?
I don't get it, it's like 24C in Ottawa right now
I honestly didn't know Canada could get that hot.110 degrees Farenheit
holy fuck, that's awful.
Whoa Brazil Mexico is on...

Yea, the synthetic turf they're on tends to hold heat unfortunately.
Guys I think Germany might win this.
Really? No. Way.
