i haven't posted anything on this tumblr in ~2 years but i just love alyssa naeher and figured that was reason enough to break my haitus. she's unbelievably amazing <3
sad for the girls (especially pinoe and kelley) and sad for the fans
Do you guys ever think about the fact that now the world cup is getting serious and nations are starting to get knocked out and we only have three weeks left of this tournament before we go back to our silly lives without football every day?
No because, as soon as Alexia was subbed on, her presence was undeniable. Not because she’s two-time Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas and she got on the ball and made things happen, but because she stepped on the pitch and communicated with her team and you could see them reacting to her — to having someone out there they respect as their captain. Armband or not. My brother was watching with me and asked, “is that Alexia we can hear over everything else? THAT is how you captain a team!”
EXACTLY!
Her impact was immediate and I believe that was vital for Spain.
They immediately picked up their sloppy shit and turned it into successful passes and good plays. You need that, and you need someone who knows how to guide and motivate your team (not you Vilda, you can choke).
Alexia has done all those things.
We knew that as soon as she started winning prizes some people would start talking shit, but what's important is that the facts don't lie.
The yelling made me laugh because my friend was also 'you can only hear her' AS YOU SHOULD
I realize that the target audiences of these two events may not overlap by much (in fact, it's possible that I may be the only one). However, I personally am quite annoyed that Good Omens Season 2 has dropped when all of my television-watching time is taken up with the FIFA Women's World Cup.
Any other fans of both the juggernaut that is Neil Gaiman / David Tennant / Michael Sheen and also women's international football?
HELP my TikTok is lost on the straight Matildas fans side. I just saw a video from a straight girl that was like "if The Matilda's were boys what type of boyfriend would they be" HUNNY ALL of those women are already either dating or engaged to a woman. I'm also offended she said Sam Kerr would cheat on you when she's famously in a long term relationship with another World Cup WOMAN's player
