Have anyone watched any of it? I was addicted to the men's world cup last year and watched practically every game so I decided to try to watch some of this but I don't know, Just doesn't seem the same to me. So yeah anyone watching it?

I watched some of the the France/England game. Was hoping it would be decent, but just looked really amateur-ish.

Womens football is awful. Not really, it's pretty exciting to me. I'm happy to support my country watching USA mens world cup and now womens. to say its awful is very disrespectful imo...even if it is "amateaur ish" thats why their on that side of the field right? can't really call it that, since it's the national team.

I've been watching this quite a bit. After I started working for a women's pro soccer team, I have a new appreciation for the game. It's cool to see a lot of players I've had the chance to get to know out there on the big stage. I'm torn between this Brazil/US game because I know multiple players from both teams

Screw the haters, that has to be the best soccer game I have ever seen. I have a great feeling that USA is going to go all the way. I've been watching as many games so far in the cup as I can. Amazing game, just amazing.

Why post in the thread then? Well, that summed up what I was thinking, haha. Womens football is nothing compared to Mens imo. As well, the club football is a lot better than the international stuff, just because you get better teams on the club scene.

Explain to me if it is nothing, why are the stadiums packed every time? Exactly, no reason to call it nothing.

Too bad you're never going to get anywhere in life like they do right? I don't see how a PROFESSIONAL sport can be awful. I'm at a loss for words on how so many people are douchers, appreciate the sport, appreciate what they do, it obvi takes skill. I have never seen a better soccer game than yesterday in my life, and guess what? It was womens. You are probably just some random guy who only watches american football, downs half a keg with his bros, and poops on every other sport because it isn't manly. Love how you automatically assume that A) Watch American Football and B) drink. I don't do either, so next time, don't make assumptions. I don't poop on other sports either, in fact, I quite enjoy Cricket compared to Football, Soccer whatever. Just because I don't enjoy womens football half as much as mens and think its pales in comparison it doesn't mean I'm some sexist douche who thinks that they have no skill. I presume you think I hate the Divas too? Time to use the rolly eyes as so many on WF do. As for saying its nothing, turn of phrase. I don't doubt its popular, I'm just saying I don't think its as good as mens. I'll ignore the attack on me saying I'll get nowehere in life. That's just petty, and proves you have no real decent argument to make.

Shifty's English, and I'm Scottish, doubt he watches American football, I know that I don't. I actually think that American Football is terribly boring. You obviously don't watch a lot of football, because the womens players are awful, and don't even match English League 2 standards. They're hardly skillful. Saying that someone is never going to get anywhere in life because you have an opinion on a sport is stupid. Also, it doesn't matter if they are PROFESSIONAL (they're actually semi-professional) they're of low standard. Thats like saying if you play the Malta national mens team, you're going to be a good player. I watch plenty of football to know what makes a good player and what doesn't.

That's just petty, and proves you have no real decent argument to make. Attack? Ok sure. I was saying you're never going to playing on a field like they do, so what gives you the right to say it is awful?

The only reason that the stadiums are "packed" is because 1. its the world cup, 2. its in a very football friendly country in Germany. Theres a reason why the Arsenal Womens football team (The most successful English ladies team) has a ground capacity of 4500, while the mens team has a stadium capacity of 60,000

I think it's more popular in other countries than in the US. My boss is a die-hard soccer (football) fanatic & watches it non-stop at work. Granted- these women are in top physical condition & bust their @sses. But I just can't get into it. I saw the big hoopla of when Megan Rupinoe scored a goal & started singing "Born In the USA". Very topical. I think the US Women's team are a bit too full of themselves. I hope either France or Japan wins.
