Hell of a game. 5 goals were scored in about 15 game minutes. Tied 3-3 and Alex Morgan scores the game winning header in the 122nd minute in stoppage time of the 2nd extra period.

Women's can be more entertaining than men's at times because its more open and generally has more goals. Not the skill and speed, but still very entertaining.

Was following it on live tracker and decided to watch on comcast.net right at the very end. Literally started watching just as Rapinoe was serving the ball into Morgan for the winning header. Amazing game. Got to give the Candians tons of credit and the US for gutting out a tough win.

unreal!! I like watching the USA women over the men right now. Rapinoe ripped the first two goals today.

Then couldnt get the video to work on nbc's website. Thats awesome. Ive never been a soccer fan but the last couple world cups have peaked my interest. Alex Morgan needs more camera time. I dont see how that goalkeeper she kneed in that last match got up.

Also, was a pretty good match. I tuned in right when the first goal of the game was scored, and continued till the end. Normally I get bored fast and change the channel, but the scoring in this game made it great.<div>
</div><div>If only all soccer games included more than 6 goals and refused to end in a tie, I'd be a fan of the sport overall. Go USA ladies.</div>

Pretty amazing how much gas was still in the tank at the end of that game. I've played a few games for that long, and it's pretty exhausting. That's the best feeling in the world when you win a game like that. Especially one with big-time implications.<div>
</div><div>Proud of them and the effort.</div><div>
</div><div>Rapinoe is and has been our top midfielder. No question. I don't feel she really gets all the credit she deserves, even though her stats are really showing her value in this tournament. She's pretty smart soccer-wise- she sees a LOT of things going home and knows how and when to play things. Seeing the uncertainty at the front post on her corner was a great read on her part.</div><div>
</div><div>And, no doubt, she saw an opportunity to find an easy handball on that free kick- give her credit for three goals. I like watching her thought process out there, it's close to how I thought about the game. She just has the talent to actually DO it.</div><div>
</div><div>And good for Alex to get the last goal. She scrapped the entire game, definitely well deserved.</div>
