12:13 pm
all of the dutch admit that the u.s. are actually the favorites but they have been impressive at this train and haven't . the u.s. absolutely have been impressive yeah i think if i had to sum it up briefly i would just say that they've proven once again already that they are the best team in the world you know they've won every game they've scored a lot of goals they dominated the midfield in every game and they've played their keepers made some great saves including the penalty save in the semifinal you know a lot of the talk before this tournament was about how it was the most competitive competitive women's world cup that we have a scene and i think that's why they've been true but the u.s. has still been a cut above. if the question before the tournament was could anyone topple the u.s. so far the answer has been resoundingly. the netherlands are clearly in their 1st ever final do they have a chance here. i mean if you if you buy
