Needed to get the ball out against France. Needed blockers on MoMo, and Matt should be playing outfield. We have the ability to pass, yet got sucked into their game. Both John and Chris get sucked into dribbbles and that is what happened again. England managed by West Brom Coach, watched his team get beat in Champs League comprehensively by the French (moMo). Should have learnt something from it, yet persists with same strategy, and get beat again. BHAPFC beat MoMo with a passing strategy, and we were the only team to do so. Our only goal came from free flowing passing move, when they decided they had nothing to lose. Should have made a change, with 5-10 to go, yet persisted with starting 4. Sooo frustrating to watch.
US look a really good side. We are top 3 having watched most games now, although a US England game would be a good watch.

Beaten Uraquay 4-0. So the game of the tournament is on. US vs England at 00:30 in Semi Final of FIPFA world cup. Stream is on https://livestream.com/powersoccershop for those that might watch. Will be a good game with 2 teams that like to pass.

If England had beaten France in the group game, England v USA could well have been the final.
As it is, England have to now face the two-time - and current - World Champions. This is a tall order. Wish them luck.

England lose their Powerchair World Cup Semi-Final 2-1 to the USA, amidst high controversy with England having a perfectly legitimate goal wrongly ruled out.
Proud of the boys nonetheless, and England go on to the 3rd Place Play-off tomorrow, probably against Australia.

For whatever reason, they don't play an advantage rule.
Seriously unhelpfully, not every country plays by the same rules as other countries. They need to sort an internationally agreed set of rules sorted pronto.

Seriously unlucky. A great game, but we could all see it was a goal at the time. Not sure why ref did not give it. He was well placed to see it. Should have beaten the French. US are a very good side, but game of tournament so far.
