Yeah!! Morgan! Way to stick with it US!
I would also like to show my respect to Canada for that moment they kicked the ball out of bounds. They had 4 people on attack, we had 4 on D. One of our players went down hurt, so not only did they have a #s advantage, our player was down pretty far back so Offsides couldn't have done anything. They probably could have scored. Instead they kicked it out of bounds.

5 consecutive modern games in an endurance event. Yes way. Congratulations to the U.S women's football team. Good finish. Well when your only participating in one event per olympics, it's not that impressive that he was in 5 olympics. Swimming takes way more endurance than rowing, and quite frankly Phelps was more dominant at his sport imo.

Sinclair's hat trick wasn't enough, bad call for the penalty kick imo

Sinclair's hat trick wasn't enough, bad call for the penalty kick imo I thought the PK was a good call. It was obviously a hand ball, and I don't think Rapinoe kicked it right at them.

The defender didn't reach out to touch the ball... I didn't think Canada would win, that game was a big surprise

The defender didn't reach out to touch the ball... I'd need to see the replay again, but if it was too far away from her body it has to be a PK. If it is right against her body and she doesn't move it there, no problem.

It was right at the body... some hand movement but that was cuz she was twisting her body, anyways let's go for bronze!
