This may be the wrong forum to post this, not sure!

I want to share a beautiful moment with all of you. My daughter encouraged me to go see the Women's World Cup played here in Vancouver between Japan and the Netherlands. The game was really exciting, I was sort of backing Japan and Japan got a goal in the first half and got another goal in the second half. Lo and behold, Netherlands got a goal in extra time, I was happy that they did not go out without a goal.

Let me tell you something, seeing a game live beats anything on TV. Just wanted to share a beautiful moment with you all.

Best regards,

I love soccer too. Played in high school and beyond. Love watching any game live. It's one of the great pleasures in life to see a live soccer game. You can really see the strategy and teamwork. Go Women's World Cup Soccer!

and man, that game was unbelievable, even though I was backing Japan, I wanted Netherlands to get a goal and they did.

We are now trying to get tickets for the Canada game, gotta back our home team.

I live and breathe soccer and cricket. Just recently got into looking at Golf, the US Open was exciting, could not believe Johnson lost.

What I like about the women's soccer game, they get hit, get up and go the gamut. No wrenching and holding a leg to stall the game.
