Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher is still appealing against that decision after seeing a replay on the screen. The Melbourne DJ goes to Dancing Queen by Abba, route one stuff but good stuff.
'USA the better side - but it's about winning'
Fran Kirby
England forward on ITV1
Some amazing penalties today, some amazing saves. I don't think Sweden deserved it, they didn't create anything and the USA were the better team.
But ultimately it's about winning. The USA didn't take the chances they created. They didn't score.

Oh wow! US keeper Alyssa Naeher gets her hands to the penalty, the ball loops up and she claws it out while leaning back - but goalline technology confirms the ball had crossed the line.
By the thinnest of thin margins.

I haven't seen a replay yet. But that was crazy. As if a penalty shootout needed more tension.

Have you ever seen anything like that?! Lina Hurtig's penalty was saved by Alyssa Naeher but the ball was judged to have crossed the line by VAR!
Sweden are through!
