I don't normally enjoy sports, but watching that one go down to a shootout was pretty intense.
Possibly it's my own biase, but does it seem like Australian soccer teams in general do less of the flopping around pretending to be hurt thing? And the women's teams from any country do it far less than the men's?
That's women's football in general. Fall down? Get up and keep going!
I much prefer it.
It’s the same in rugby league. They just get on with it.
Me either due to the whole "bread and circuses" thing that I have going on but I was with people and I'll admit it was a decent game to watch, one that I got invested in. Could have gone either way the entire time; congrats to the Aussies and bad luck to the French.
