This is a gaming forum after all, you don't just take the loss without complaining and excuses.

As much as I wanted France to win, they missed way to many opportunities. Now for the first time I'll support England, what have you done USA?

The bullshit offsides more than makes up for the possible handball. I don't want to hear it, USWNT haters!

Also, Rapinoe dunking on Trump then getting both goals is amazing.

It wouldn't be ERA without a bunch of know-nothings claiming one side was robbed by the refs.

It's not disrespect. The USA are the biggest team left in a competition they have dominated, it's always more fun when the those teams get knocked down a peg or two. I'm hoping for an England win but the US in this tournament remind me of Spain grinding out victories to win Euro 2008.

Rapinoe looked so much better than she did against Spain. Really stepped up.

Hopefully Horan starts against England.

Didn't catch the new ruling, thanks. Still feels like it wasn't natural.

It's extremely close, but it's offside.

People are now complaining not cause a referees call was wrong but that they did not VAR check hard calls.

No, it was offside. The support foot was ahead of that of the defender. That's the definition of offside. And a handball in the area is a penalty.

And her hand was down across her body not outstretched in an unnatural position. That is regularly not called and not viewed as a handball

Either call easily goes either way in the normal flow of play. They are both close calls

Must have missed that match, what happened with Cameroon?

I'm sure you're not talking about the England game, where the VAR calls were all correct and Cameroon were extremely lucky to not have ended the match with 8 players.

The back-pass was not a back-pass. So the first goal was not meant to be. And then they took a goal from Cameroon that was not offside. Without those two mistakes the match might have gone differently.

Her arm was outstretched to the back of her body, away from her profile that faced the pass, and changed the trajectory of a very dangerous pass. It was a textbook handball.

We have chosen a new Champion. England, you're up. At least soften them up a little for the finals if you fail please.
