Comment by Women's Soccer United on August 8, 2012 at 20:51 Those stats are interesting, funny how the two very different styles were successful for both teams to progress to the final.
Comment by Gromit on August 8, 2012 at 19:42 Shots statistics updated after the S-F.

Comment by Gromit on August 2, 2012 at 20:22 If logic is respected, all 8 teams should wear their regular jerseys tomorrow. That's a good thing.

Comment by Kat Neyer on August 2, 2012 at 13:32 @Lars and Gromit--you guys have gone way off topic...but it's somewhat entertaining. lmao
Comment by Gromit on August 2, 2012 at 12:40 @Lars - Yes, to carry on with this infamous off-topic, Sjöström was a genius : Hingeborg Holm, Terje Vigen, Körkarlen (Bergman used to watch this film, his favourite, every year at the same date), The Scarlett Letter or this masterpiece The Wind with Lilian Gish and Lars Hanson again.
I can't find any Sjöström's film about football in my memory, so I can't come back to topic...
