@canefan I don't really think it was the element of surprise, but understand what you're saying. We created more than enough chances to win the game - just didn't take them.
I mean Norway might have taken us lightly. Switzerland will not
-
I've been very impressed with the Italian referee in this game between Japan and Costa Rica
-
Japan practically through to knockout stages
Looking comfortable if a little inaccurate
-
Followed by unluck of the Irish just beore half time
Own goal which should have been dealt with
1-1
-
Feel a bit sorry for Zambia - 2 x 5-0 defeats. But you can't hold a high line against top teams and then give their midfielders time and space. Both Japan and Spain were getting runners in behind relentlessly. Costa Rica used the low block to minimise the damage.

USA looking like the better team, but the Dutch are up 1-nil midway through the first half
-
According to commentators, that is the first time that the USA have been behind in a World Cup game since 2011

@stargazer will be in full celebration mode about that.
-
1-1 after 70 minutes. Don't break out the good salted licorice yet @Stargazer
-
@Stockcar86 I prefer the sweet black licorice haha.
-
1-1 Final. Good result for Netherlands

The Netherlands will be the happier of the two teams and were hanging on at the end. They miss Vivianne Miedema up front. The best game so far.
And going forward
I'd much rather be the Netherlands playing Vietnam in my last group match over the US playing Portugal
-
Great end to the first half for Australia
Up 1-0
-
And Nigeria equalise with a fortunate deflection and bounce
Aus 1 -1 Nig
-
Cracking match this
