They'll probably fade out again after this championship, but does it even matter? If they manage to pull off a medal here, they’ll have truly earned it. 😢
That same group was leading against the Danes back in the US in 2009—up by eight in the second half—and they still choked. It’s not like they suddenly got better overnight. We were beating them then, too! The difference is that the refs aren't screwing us over quite as much lately. That alone proves how badly we were getting cheated in previous years. :-) Now that we're playing at home, they can't afford to screw us, so they call it fair, and suddenly we're right where we belong: at the top.
