Is it bad that I already have an irrational dislike of this Rapinoe character?

Do Colombia still kill players who score own goals and miss penalties? Tesillo better watch out after Chile beat Colombia 5-4 in the shootout and he missed.
Can someone summarise what’s the deal with her? I tried to read an article about her today, but gave up quickly as it was so American I couldn’t go on after the first few paragraphs.
She kneeled during the national anthem, protests, advocates gays and generally seems to be everything Donald Trump doesn't like. That's my take on it at least.
You can't win a World Cup without a gay though so someone alert Southgate.
Ah, alright. Thought there would’ve been more to that.
There probably is but then patriotic American's really aren't my forte. It's a lie, especially in that country.
She went down like a sack of shit against the French yesterday claiming to have been badly fouled and then VAR rolled in and showed there was basically no contact. I'm never too bothered about overly opinionated sportsfolk, but, for me, that sealed the deal.
Is that the one that I see pictures of all over Twitter looking smug with a pink prison haircut and tits that look like the Rock's? Was she always a woman?
Is her physique notably different to any of them?
Big day in the Afcon today, triple 0-0.
Typical Afcon superkeeperings all round, yeah?
26 shots between Benin and Guinea-Bissau.
1 on target.
I think 5 shots on target across all three games.
Jimmy will have been in his element.
Also finished 0-0 in the Peru vs Uruguay game. Suarez was the only player to miss during the penalty shoot-out. He had to be carried off in some of the Uruguayans players arms. He was crying very bad.
Brazil vs Argentina on Tuesday
Chile vs Peru on Wednesday
Semi_finals
Oh? Suarez upset? Gosh that's a shame.
It’s worth watching this shootout online. Chile with the most savage set of penalties since Zambia vs Ivory Coast.
Haiti are into the semi finals of the gold cup vs the mexicans.
Canada still a disgrace then.
Watched the first half of Mexico's match yesterday. Tata Binman Martino is our manager apparently. I also didn't recognize half of the players.
Me neither.
Madagascar
Scenes if they win and top the group.
Nigeria
Some of the Madagascan names are pretty epic. Not really clocked them before today.
I had only heard of Nohenmanjahry or whatever before the tournament. Purely because I did a FIFA career with Paris and he and the keeper are the only decent ones there.
It is known.
That just made me think of a colleague of mine in the grim days of being on the phones covering Student Loans Company, seeing a passport with an application and asking me who "Dr. Congo" is.
Namibia didn't deserve this.
Also, I have no idea how Bony is starting over Pepe, Cornet or even Kodjia.
That was a horrific penalty by Mane.
I remember thinking Mané looked a decent taker in pre-season (I think) last season, but yeah, not so much. All of Liverpool's forwards are shit at penalties. Well, maybe not Origi, he'd probably be surprisingly good.
I'm prepared to be wrong, but I imagine it was deliberately missed and this game is a fix to take both sides through.
On that note, for long odds betting fans, there was a famous 4-4 in Mali v Angola in this competition about six or eight years back, and a repeat of that scoreline tomorrow would be judicious for both sides.
Dodgy keeper alert.
Get on the equaliser.
EDIT: Or don't. RIP Kenya. Long live Doctor Congo.
Terrible defending.
The Doctors ride again.
That's a quality finish, but both the defender and the goalkeeper need bullets.
They've fallen apart here.
About as rash a tackle as you'll ever see in the box. Heads completely gone, and Senegal could finish this with six if they want it.
James Milner won't retire this century so we should be alright.
Even Fabinho was meant to be a don at them wasn't he and then promptly missed the first one he was tasked with taking.
19 successful ones then a miss for us if I Googled right. van Nistelrooy levels that.
USA vs England women in the semi final tonight followed by Argentina vs Brazil in the Copa.
Half the USA team look exactly the same. Clearly, they all have the same barber.
I was going to complain that Eurosport were showing Mali/Angola but they are actually showing the other match too which should be more interesting.
Black man thinks we all look the same. Shameful racism.
England have been a shambles so far and USA has taken a 1-0 lead after 10 minutes. They look shook out there.
You're an American woman?
In the #MeToo era, we're all American women.
Mauritania should be 2 up.
