After overcoming what were at best questionable decisions in a game that appeared to be fixed, the USWNT defeated Brazil 5-3 on penalties to advance to the semi finals of the Women’s World Cup. But even more shocking than the offside goal and penalty that wasn’t, was the blatant cheating and diving of the Brazilians. Case in point, this lady is struc kby what I can only assume is a sniper in the stands in the lower back, writhes around in pain and is stretchered off only to recover and run over to the bench….its a football miracle!

I’m not complaining. The stoppage time added on for her shenanigans gave the U.S. the time needed to score an equalizer. Poetic justice if you ask me.
