They weren't favorites. USA was, as always. Now it's Germany. Brazil is doing the expected, fighting for medals.

Sweden parked an airbus, from what I'm reading. Played to get it to the pk shoot out. It seems hope solo wasn't wrong.

She is annoying, but negative football is too. And it's the current trend with nt's, male or female. playing not to lose, instead of playing to win.

Hope the men's final is Brazil vs Germany. Losing again would be somewhat amusing.

Playing so called "negative football" is understandable when it's used by a significally inferior team, like Sweden for instance.

The better teams will always have to deal with it, simple as that.

It's not negative futbol. You can't expect a team that inferior talent wise to play open against superior opposition. It's a tactic, the other team has to know how to counter it.

Brazil is not that much better. This tactic takes a lot from the sport, makes it boring. Cup format needs a revamp, many were complaining the euro was boring for that same reason.

It is negative football. I dislike it a lot, one of the reasons I am a Barça fan. And women's football is still a but different from male's, so I think it's sad it's already going down that path.

Maybe it's negative football from your point of view whereas others like to watch how teams organize themselves defensively.

Same thing could be said for Tiki-Taka.

It's subjective, there's no right or wrong in football.

You now, I thought this would not need to be said, but everything I say here it's from my point of view. This is a forum, and I don't know how I could speak on anyone else's behalf.
Parking the bus is negative boring football. If all matches were like that, it'd stop being the most popular sport in the world pretty fast.
