What an amazing game.

I'm not really much of a sport watcher. But I've found myself following the Matilda's this world cup - I think it's the fact we're hosting and they're a home team.

So tense! Helps that soccer is pretty easy for a newbie to follow.

It's probably also the fact that they're winning

That helps too 🤣 but this was the first Matilda's game I watched.
