World Cup 2011
This year, the Women’s World Cup was held in Germany. Besides watching some games in Biergartens, Phil and attended a couple of games in Augsburg. I also followed Team USA to watch the semifinal and the final.
Unfortunately, the USA lost to Sweden in the group stage and didn’t play in Augsburg, like I’d hoped. So, we got to see England beat Japan in the group stage and Australia vs. Sweden in the quarter finals. Sweden beat Australia before losing to Japan.
I also got to see the USA beat France in the semifinal in Mönchengladbach. Thanks to a friend, I was also in Frankfurt for the final, USA vs. Japan on Sunday July 17th. Unfortunately, the USA lost in penalties. Congratulations Japan. Go USA!
