    Penalty decision was a disaster though from the ref. Just after the first documented example in history of a goalkeeper being penalised for holding the ball for too long.

    Yep then the missing of the whole ball being out, but giving a corner instead of a goal kick.

    This is one of the best games I have ever seen - this is how knockout football should be played - take note England and team GB.

    Rule 1 of ref school - don't let the players make the decision for you.

    Rule 2 - don't give really stupid indirect free kicks inside the box unless you really (really) have to.

    I don't know if you can call it a local derby as it takes longer to fly from Canada to Florida then it does from London to New York!

    Sorry...forgot the smiley.

    I bet Canada would really enjoy beating their noisy neighbours.

    In America, the womens team has always been good as soccer has always been regarded as a girls game (strange as the men play rounders).
