WSOC in national championship game 12 noon today...

Holy crap - how was that tackle not a penalty kick?

PSU attacker got absolutely molested well before balls arrival (don't think the defender ever even touched the ball). I mean that was an absolute mugging of a wide-open attacker on a perfect cross in the box, if that is not a penalty, I don't know what is.

Rodriguez is playing out of her mind right now, nearly made it 2-0. Just under 12 remaining.

 

[Franklin_Restores_TheTradition]

Not sure what these announcers are watching. One way traffic for us for a large part of that half. Duke dangerous out wide, but very shaky in possession.

We look the better team, but have to attack more. Their back line looks shaky

Agree, PSU has dominated and dictated the pace of play. They've controlled the ball, outshot Duke, had the better of play all day - absolutely baffled by the commentary....by all rights, PSU is leading 2-0 as the officials ignored a beyond obvious penalty not only in the box, but directly square in front of the net at point blank range.

Penn State was beyond dominant in the tournament, as it scored 20 goals in six matches and shut out every opponent it faced.
