I know it's Australia and all that but I won't be giving this game my full attention until the St George/Marconi game finishes.

Surely you can follow both the Matildas and NPL New South Wales though.

I said 'full attention' which means some attention.

Oh Foord. Huge chance.

 

[HonestSpursFan]

Playing well so far!

Caitlin Foord with a shot at goal which is saved.

Two big chances with Kerr and Foord and they both rushed it. They seem to not compose themselves infront of goal.

Shot conversion has been problematic for the Matildas throughout most of our campaign though so it's nothing new.

For anyone abroad

 

[JS96]

To think we had Kerr and Foord in those positions. Need to covert!

 

[HonestSpursFan]

Get fucked.

 

[zimbos05]

Far too easy. Macca just doesn't get off the ground. Get enough of a lift and she's not getting to it.

Too much space. Poor

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Maika Hamano scores in the 17th minute to give Japan a 1-0 lead. Yui Hasegawa with the assist.

 

[JS96]

Oh fuck off. They don't even need that type of wonder goal.

 

[erogenouszone]

booooo

 

[JS96]

Wonder goal and shouldn't be giving them an inch.

 

[zimbos05]

These girls stress me out. Kerr picks up the ball and just crosses. No one in the box. She needed to hold and wait for support

 

[JS96]

I don't really understand how people can only tune in for the final. Like these people who don't know the players or anything just seeing if we lift the trophy without caring before I dunno I guess everyone starts off somewhere

Event fans. Those with convictions understand the entire journey while a large part of society get on a bandwagon.

Matildas need to be reining in Japan more because right now we're giving them too much space in midfield which has allowed them to get downfield and pounce.

 

[JS96]

At least we're having go. Could open to Japan's strategy but I'd rather go all out than be timid.

 

[erogenouszone]

Japan look sharp.
