Jamaica drawing with Brazil is another huge boost for the small countries. . Brazil not going through is a huge sign of the rest of the world catching up. Germany only having three points and top 10 in the world, struggling to get through down 1 to Korea is another sign.

Very exciting now, the knock rounds will be fun!

This advancement gives me some nice feelings about the advancement and in some countries acceptance of womens' sports around the world.

Morocco goal keeper is playing out of her mind! Go Morocco!

Morocco playing well coached, highly professional soccer, dribbling to corner flags in added time, fast one touch passing onto spaces. . what an inspiration to Arab countries womens' soccer

I voted 4th Place for them.

Sweden could win it all. They played very well against Japan and move on.

Spain won.

England plays against Columbia and France meets Australia August 12, 2023. Our time (Eastern ) 3 and then 6:30 AM.

Default Spoilers possible.

Great game this morning between France and Australia. That is this morning here in the U.S.A. Brisbane is quite a bit later in the day.

Good catch!

Sorry it is not The King's English but I am an American so I can use "couldn't care less" and "could care less" interchangeably...I guess. ‘Could Care Less’ Versus ‘Couldn’t Care Less’ - Quick and Dirty Tips

Yes, although I do not.

Some use "aggravate" for "irritate", too. Just a moment....

and "reiterate" for "iterate". Is it reiterate or iterate? - Future Perfect.

another: "excetera" for "etcetera". pronunciation - ETcetera pronounced as EXetera ? Correct? - English Language & Usage Stack Exchange
