I was proud of the USWNT too. They never gave up, and inspired me to be apart of the team one day.When I saw them fighting to the finish I really realized I wanted to be them someday.

@iSwifty33 you have no idea what you are talking about, you really dont - there was plenty of moments when USA outdribbled and outpassed Japan, and both their goals came after exquisite passes.

Good captain, humble and gave credit to the winning team.

@liquid1122 yes yes yes. very true. i just got done watching abby and hope on letterman. they did a freaking media blitz today. and blitzkreg if u will. but i was thinking earlier today, its good the Olympics are right around the corner, they'll stay on everyone's mind. and even though it shouldnt matter, their beauty will help keep them fresh in people's mind. Olympics cant come soon enough

@CardinalJiles So far I'm glad they're still getting love, cause I was kinda scared that most ppl would've immediately forgot everything that came before the final seconds of the final. Also yea, it's 4 more yrs but the olympics is just one more year. & With plently of games before the olympics in the qualifying stage, so the wait for a gold medal won't be so bad at least.

Lots of mistakes finishing this match. In the runup to Japan's last goal Sawa was left completely alone in the midfield. There wasn't a US player within 10 yards of her. You can't give a player of her quality all that space to make a perfect delivery into the box, not when you have 5 minutes to win the cup! I was jumping out of my seat "Come on, put someone on her!" Doesn't make sense to me. Heartbreaking loss and I wasn't going to cry, but I had to eventually to get it out of my system.

everyone is only congratulating japan because of their tsunami.
i couldnt imagine having to sit and just take a loss like that. i wanted it so bad for them. they wanted it so bad. and those are both understatements. the brasil game is all for not, everything is all for not. and i hate most of america wont care about our efforts, just move on. oh well what can u do. we were so damn close. and the worse part is... gotta wait 4 more years
