7 all 32 seconds left. But Oz has the ball after USA scored. Can we??

 

[largebus]

Shootout it is

 

[Eraser]

I’m going insane. Why did we keep passing it to the centre, that never worked once.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Penalty shoot outs - ecstasy or slash your wrist time

 

[_Cerberus_]

The Americans managed to tie it in the last couple of seconds of their final possession. Unfortunate for Australia. We were not able to get a score in the final seconds, headed to a penalty shoot out now.

[Mr Meow]

Penalty shoot outs - ecstasy or slash your wrist time

Ecstasy please.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Bloody hell. Bit like the Boomers, didn't take advantage of that early lead

 

[largebus]

That's a shame. But the team was never expected to get this far

 

[JP Sauce]

Booo!

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

That's a shame. But the team was never expected to get this far

Its be an unbelievable effort to finally beat Serbia and 9 time gold medallist Hungary.

They had their chances.

 

[_Cerberus_]

Ughhh! It wasn't to be. The USA keeper looked way more likely at making stops than our Aussie keeper to be honest. Didn't seem as confident or quick.

What is with Aussies and throwing away decent leads?

Gutted to lose this way. They had a great tournament, and led 5-2 at one point in this match. Along with beating some powerhouse teams. Thought they had a great chance of picking up a medal of some kind. Hopefully they can build on this for the next Olympics.

 

[largebus]
