Women's World Cup semifinal open thread: USA vs. England

Today, the American women's soccer team will take on England in a World Cup seminal with an opportunity to move on to the championship game. The USA is the dominant force in international women's soccer, with several World Cup titles under their belts.

The Americans took out France, the second best team in the world, in a quarterfinal match last week, 2-1. That was the only goal they have conceded in the entire tournament and will play the favorite today in Lyon.

The Yankee ladies are led by forwards Megan Rapinoe, who scored both goals against France, and legendary players Tobin Heath and Alex Morgan.
