USWNT vs BRAZIL highlights

• Playing Press, Morgan and Williams means that it's going to be an entertaining speed show with a lotta through, long balls

• No player knelt during the anthem. However, Press and Dunn didn't place their hands over their hearts. Their faces show that it was involuntary.

• 1:48 - Christen Press makes a lovely through pass to Lynn who shoots directly AT the keepers (honestly honey the goal is literally 24 feet wide)

• 7:40 - Morgan with an EXCELLENT run and cross into the mid, Lavelle almost gets US their first goal

• 8:20 - Julie and Marta going at it. Who doesn't love watchin two beasts fighting over a spherical object

• 9:40 - Lynn Williams got megged. Her soul has been snached.

• 10:20 - CHRISTEN OPENS THE SCORE WITH A LOVELY SOLO RUN DOWN THE LEFT FLANK! THE GAYS (and I) ARE OVERJOYED

• 12:20 - CRYSTAL DUNN WITH A BDE TACKLE TO SAVE A DEFINITE GOAL. Brazil opening up the backline like that is slightly alarming

• 13:06 - someone get Lynn outta the back line. Homegirl is forgetting where her allegiance is and passing the ball to brazilians

• 14:30 - Rose creates a good chance for herself with a lovely fake and go but it's blocked well. The Brazilian keepers is having herself a day

• 18:20 - Brazil is getting a lil tooo close. The backline needs to rearrange themselves and improve marking

• 21:55 - Sauerbrunn showing why she's the best defender in the world, absolutely manhandling Brazil's striker and clearing that ball like a pro

• 24:19 - Brazil with a close chance. Emily Sonnett says "fuck", the mics pick it up

• 28:45 - Emily Sonnett yeets Marta during a counter attacking rising out of a USWNT mistake. Marta was not amused. Gets a warning by the referee. Emily throws a signature thumbs up sign

• 33:10 - now Alex Morgan gets yeeted by Bruna Benites. She gets a yellow card for a completely fumbled tackle trying to stop a promising counter

• 38:20 - Christen Press with a good chance after a successful cross by Lynn from the right. She goes at it twice but doesn't connect well

• 39:30 - Morgan gets fouled by Benites. She looks like she boutta shank a bitch

• 41:08 - Morgan is playing deeper than she usually does, maybe insinuating a change is role for her, as she's been switching sides and rotating more often as well, more frequently towards the left

• 42:50 - Lynn passes the ball to the keeper

Overall observations:

If Lynn plays more than 50 minutes, I'm going to be big mad

Julie has been seriously off but she has making valuable efforts in defense.

Rose and Lindsey's connection has been a little off but it has more to do with conditioning than chemistry

Morgan and Press rotating and dropping back is certainly effective. Cuts down a lot of passing lanes and opens up more space for Lynn to run behind the Brazilian defense
