captainsblogWe watched the final 20-odd minutes of the Wymyns World Cup final from BC, all of it with US holding onto a 5-2 lead. That's virtually insurmountable in hockey, much less in this sport where the rules seem even more designed to prevent scoring.
Congratulations to Rochester's Abby Wambach, who's waited her whole career for this.
Following the conclusion of the 90 minutes and the running of the Mystery Minutes, they passed out a bunch of awards. Giving the "Golden Glove" to Hope Solo might not have been the most tasteful of ideas.
I've still yet to see if the hat trick scored by our Carli Lloyd resulted in the tossing of actual hats onto the pitch.
Well done.
