theone 1 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Great Result for New Zealand! 2-2 is a highly respectable result against a top ten ranked team NZ could've won. They led 2-0 till the last 20 mins. Link to post Share on other sites
Fox334 93 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Its not a great result for Canada, but we got the three points. A tie result between New Zealand and Japan is also great for Canada, since its now likely that Canada could get to the quarters even if they lose there next two games.

dtd2 3 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I am absolutely stunned about the USA. I realize Abby Wambach isn't there, but the USA won 4-0 twice this year (With Wambach scoring a goal in each game). The commentators were extremely stunned. With one of them shouting at the first goal "Oh my gosh!" & then not saying anything for a while after the second one before saying "I am practically speechless." (She is a former player). The other commentator was trying to remember the last time the USA trailed 2-0 or even the last time they gave up a goal so early in the game or when someone even scored against the USA. Thank God Japan & New Zealand tied. Link to post Share on other sites
