Australia defeats Denmark 2-0 , I guess they gained confidence they need by defeating Canada 

Is this the chinese character for soup ?
 
 

Too bad
 
The Nigerian keeper was so close all the time.....at least three of the English penalties were schoolbook examples of how to take a penalty, hard and straight into the high corner  

Nigeria had a very tough draw Australia and Canada in GS then England the favorite side to win it all after USA departure even before the US loss 

Nigeria's Fairy tale has come to an end , England won by Penalties but they lost Lauren James not sure for how long but at least not for quarterfinals 

Oooh Lauren James, how insanely dumb can you be? You absolute idiot  
 
Rightful red card, go be very ashamed of yourself.

Possibly, but most of their attempts just seemed totally....off. Like they just didn't care at all. USA's penalties were taken the way a teenager cleans his room when his mom tells him to finally do so: put a single t-shirt from the floor in the closet with a bored face and say "I cleaned my room, done"  

South Africa is a truly fun team. Not one of the 'lesser' teams who just go lay in front of the goal and hope they keep the goals against to a minimum, but just going for it and attacking whenever they can, that makes teams fun to watch  

Just managed to catch up now, but did the American women ever train a single penalty kick? Holy moly that were some pathetic attempts, zero power or commitment or anything behind it  

Made the mistake of opening up X (artist formerly known as Twitter) tonight after the US loss…yikes.

I must say Women football has really developed in this competition, there are no punch bags anymore apart from Vietnam , Zambia and Costa Rica , all other teams have left a mark , still we see some silly goals like in SA vs Italy or Spain vs Switzerland , but things are getting better , development of European Teams improved quality of Football in Europe and Africa as well 

i swear it's the same ball that Japan won through Spain in last WC in Qatar  anyway Congrats Sweden they played the game exactly with the same strategy of Rio 2016 and they managed to get the same output with the help of American Players like Rapinoe who ended her career when she decided to concentrate outside football pitch 

It was a goal by literally 1 mm
 

 

have a goal ruled out for offside but then goalkeeper makes a horrendous error and lets the ball right through her hands for 2-0
 
Danielle van de Donk has been booked and will miss the QF vs Spain.

Sweden win 5-4 in PSO! High drama as Naeher saved the game-winning kick but it crossed the line mid-air and VAR had to check it

Roord scores an early goal for

Yeah, that would be a good guess.
 
Miyazawa scores her 5th goal of the tournament and that should wrap it up. 3-1.

Japan definitely looks like the highest quality team of all here. Their goals are fabricated nicely, with good and efficient attacks, whereas many of the other goals are somewhat coincidental, lucky, silly, etc. So far I'd say they are the favourite, besides England I guess?

Spain won 5-1. Nice & easy.
 
Meanwhile Japan leads Norway 2-1 after 58 mins.

Spain with a classic schoolyard goal* for 4-1  
 
*ball lands in a group of players, everyone tries to kick towards it and coincidentally the one that hits it kicks it roughly towards the goal  

Second goal from Bonmati and Spain have everything under control again. 3-1.

Spain back in front after 17 mins. Let's see if they can avoid more errors from here.

Spain scores an own goal from 40 meters out. Clown show has arrived...

The fuq is happening
