I am totally in love with my team and I honestly think they deserved the victory ! Yet, congratulation to the German team !! Merci l'équipe de France, vous m'avez fais rêver ! I hope women's football will be increasingly watched !

[@ItaloCanadese]

Rétif Simon I fell in love with this French team as well. It hurt my heart to see them cry at the end. I look forward to the next women's world cup France 2019 Louisa Nécib will once again be able to show that she is a world class player.

France was the better team on the field. But once it went to penalty kicks I had feeling Germany was going to win.

[@hyunwoolee3260]

France left the cup in the cruelest of ways. A penalty shoot-out.

[@adamuoldvids7052]

France dominated play until they scored their goal, and then allowed Germany to get back in. There might be arguments over the penalty, but ultimately Thiney should have scored anyway to put France through, so well done Angerer and Germany for surviving to the semis!

[@alcendra1977]

There is a difference between domination and possession. Putting the ball in the net, finishing opportunities, not letting them score and ultimately moving to the next game is domination! The fact that you held the ball longer but couldn't finish scoring opportunities makes you inefficient not dominant.

[@khuddle]

Its been several hours after the game now...and I still have no idea how France lost that match. We all talk about Necib, Henry and Delie but the real story of the match was the French defence which absolutely suffocated the German attack. I counted 4 decent German chances on goal all game, thats it. Just bad luck for "Les Bleues", I guess. Its a real shame, because I LOVE watching Louisa Necib -- as beautiful as a fashion model and as cunning as a fox, the German players looked awestruck by her today. Looking forward to seeing more of her in the future.

[@zackjean2511]

Just had to go on panaties... France dominated the game but luck always seams to be on Germany s side 1984-1986-2014-2015 .... Well good luck to Germany for the next game and this french team will win the next world cup or later on in time ... Keep up the good work les bleuse

[@zackjean2511]

France are out of the world cup even if they played better u cant compet whit experiance like there goal keeper Angerer is an amazing goaly well atleast the US doesnt have to worry about France this will be easier this will be a hell of a semi final this french team is inprooving i think France will be a dengerous team that could win titles in the next 10 to 20 years probaly more then the men s ? We will see but for now i think USA or Germany could win this world cup untell the french comes back at full force in 2019 on home soil.

[@sherpah]

Acoording to FIFA Law 12 about handballs leading to a PK, there was never a PK for Germany. Despite that fact, even if Germany won the game (congrats), i'm so proud of my french women, and their great football, and so nice girls in real life on top of that. You have won my heart girls !

[@pugnator5901]

sherpah With the outstretched arm, the French player increased her body surface area. So it was a clear penalty for Germany.

[@sherpah]

sherpah Just to clarify that point about PK and handballs. Law 12 about handball PK (wikipedia: fouls and misconduct in football), you need: -Movement of the hand towards the ball (not the ball towards the hand) -Distance between the opponent and the ball (unexpected ball) -Position of the hand ('natural' position versus 'unnatural' position) does not necessarily mean that there is an infringement. So just try to run and put your left foot ahead like in this action, your arm/hand will be naturally in that position, in addition to the fact that she is too close of the action so it is unexpected, and at the moment the german player kick the ball the arm is already in that position. It is clear it is not a PK, an indirect free kick would have been fair, when you follow the rules, but referee has the ultimate decision.

[@fe-jo]

sherpah Penalty, period.

Beauty of the French player is a victory of this tournament. The French defeat is regrettable. The strength of Germany is held at no one. It looked like the final game. In 2 teams, thank you very much, I'd like to say.

[@freedomofspeech75]

Penalty kicks are 90% about emotional ! Technically, (base on my experiences) you should : 1/ keep the ball low ( so the keeper need more time to reach low). 2/ balance the power when kick the ball (stable likes hold your breath and pull the trigger) 3/ angle (inside lower left or right posts). 4/ fake actions while running to the ball.(including the eyes, visions, directions) 5/ and of course , control your emotions. (block all the glory of victory or agony - focus and just thinking about doing your job)

This game passed the eye test. Was one of the most entertaining matches have seen in a while and also Necib is a Babe of the highest order, The Highest!!!

[@Alldressedup100]

I knew it would be a close match but France was the better team, especially in the first half. But luck always plays a role too and this time it was on Germany's side. And they had Nadine Angerer. If someone deserves that Player of the Match trophy it's her.

[@Jon-op1pr]

An unfortunate loss for France. Germany did not deserve the win in my opinion.

[@song7087]

well the meaning of the game is if you play good or even the best tactic but you fail to score, then you deserve to lose. I'm not disrespecting France but they deserve this result and that arm-stretching costed them the place in semi. You can't win the game by chances, you win it by scoring goals. My country isn't even in the competition so I"m not favoring either side.

[@isabelargueta15]

The best game of the tournament and it only lasts TWO MINUTES?!

FIFA, look how many people have viewed the highlights for the Germany vs. France quarterfinal of the Women's 2015 World Cup. Please post the complete game - highlights are nothing in comparison!

[@jorgeponce7947]

Before this game, the German team looked unshakable. It was hard to believe that any team could control the game v the Germans the way France did throughout most of this match. Sasic and Mittag nearly disappeared. Kemme could not hold Thomis accountable. Henry, Abily and Necib got in charge of the midfield. Only the entry of Maroszan brought some breathing room to the Germans.

[@Nackenzwei]

I rooted for my country but man - when I saw those french woman playing football, I was like "uh oh". And oh boy was that penalty shootout in the end amazing. I guess the next WWC could go to the French team, I actually kinda hope it :)

[@xEppy033x]

I wanted Germany to win this game, but in the back of my mind I wanted France to win so I didn't have to see Germany and the USA play in the semi's. I just want them both to win the World Cup!

[@MsFootaddict]

Brandon Epperson You have such a twisted mind x) I understand what you mean though ;)

[@pugnator5901]

Claire Lavogez' slogan certainly is: My game is unfair play!

[@kelmandevil]

While I understand that a handball is in the box for a penalty is something of a grey area and a sensitive subject, I'm pretty sure when your fully outstretched arm blocks a cross, the ref has to call handball, and since it was in the box...clear penalty, so lets stop acting like the ref cost france the game. not finishing chances and letting a German Squad take them to Penalties cost France the game ;)

[@lonelychimney4395]

HauntedOne18 twice

[@kennetbowl]

Kelso Mandevil I see it as 1. arm not fully outstretched, its more of a natural position 2. the hand is trying to escape the ball, the movement direction towards the back 3. the distance b/w crosser and the hand is too small for a handballed person to react. so IMO ref steals it from France. And in general in women's soccer referying is very poor.

[@lonelychimney4395]

kennetbowl Everybody saw that France was better. So sad we won't get to see a France-Japan final.

[@Emper0rH0rde]

Louisa Nécib is the total package. She's an outstanding footballer, and she is *supermodel* beautiful.

[@Toonami4EvaX]

I nearly cried for France, they definetely deserved to win that match they were clearly the better team but that damn ref robbed them of their dreams. I was looking forward to a France and Japan final but i guess Germany will be a nice alternative. Ive seen too many japan and USA finals.

[@pugnator5901]

Toonami4EvaX The given penalty for Germany was a correct one. And by the way, France had enough chances to kill the game. There was only one USA vs. Japan final in the history of the FIFA Women's World Cup.

[@Toonami4EvaX]

Wrestling God Yeah of course the Germany penalty was correct but france didnt get their penalty they deserved. In addition to the last WC Final the following year Japan played the US in the 2012 Olympic Final and lost 2-1. No need to get hostile on me Jacob.

[@63utuber]

How did that work out for you?

[@lebourse]

Today, the french team played great, was clearly superior, but today the best team lost. Germany can thank the referee. That's football. If you have the possibilities to score and make the difference...

[@song7087]

First, you have chances and didn't convert, you deserve the result. Second, if you can't see that intentional handball from the French player,, you are really ignorant. (PS. I'm not taking side here cuz my country wasn't even in the tournament)

[@ginolerebours6466]

Franx K First half of your comments are right, not a penalty. It was a harsh call the ref got away with but a bad one. The comment about Lavogez was 100% wrong... Anyone that plays and watches a lot of soccer will see that Lavogez was more technically gifted and ferocious compared to Thomis, who at that point was too tired to use her speed effectively, and her give-aways could have been too costly in extra time. Lavogez AND Thiney galvanized the team in extra time... it was thanks to particularly Lavogez that that last play was even set up that Thiney missed... Lavogez's PK miss is on her, but she will blossom into a true star for France. Here is to hoping that Necib, Thomis, Delie, and others have one more world cup in them... I am dying for them to win in 2019.

[@ujiokatsumoto]

As a neutral fan, I enjoyed watching this exciting game, but there is one thing I feel bitter about. Nobody seems to have mentioned this yet, but while the referee took the French player's handball in the second half, she missed a German player's handball in the penalty area in the first half. I was watching this game live on Fox Sports, but they replayed the questionable scene in the first half in a slow motion (the commentator even questioned why it wasn't a handball). Both looked equally unintentional to me, but the referee gave a penalty to one side and didn't to the other side, which cost France this big game. Mighty Germany has advanced, but my heart goes out to French players who outperformed their opponents.

What a shame. France played much better throughout this entire match, and maybe they should have taken their chances, but football truly is a cruel sport. Not to mention that the No.1 and No.3 teams in the world should never have met in the quarterfinals. I most feel it for Louisa Necib, as she is 28 and making the next WC will be a challenge. Looking forward to supporting them at Rio 2016 though.

[@song7087]

well if you have chances, and you didn't convert then you lose. Simple as that!!

[@GenMarkof007]

Just wanted to give a few pointers to all of the couch referee commenting the penalty... if you stick out your arm, and the ball hits it inside the goalie zone, it's a penalty! Also, that could have been the finals for this year, since France & Germany are one of the 4 best teams in women soccer. Cheers ;)

[@pegpenguin]

GenMarkof007 You don't understand the FIFA rules, nor do you understand what deliberate means in English. Add to that, you can't see video properly either. The slow-motion replay doesn't make things up. Your personal "pointers" are.

[@GenMarkof007]

Hi pegpenguin, don't really understand your comment... a few pointers for you, I've started playing soccer over 44 years ago at age 5. I did follow a course to become referee with all the rules from FIFA soccer. As for the penality kick, I just gave my point on what I saw from many angles and in slow-motion. So for your comments, I would try to be a bit more carefull on your words. Also, you know like me that if women soccer would have referee at each goal net, that would help, like in men soccer. Cheers ;)

[@pegpenguin]

GenMarkof007 That's all fine and dandy, but just show me the documents in the law/rulebook where it is stated. If it's an actual rule, I want to see it officially. Also, I can easily tell that it was unintentional (which is equal to non deliberate). The arms are out to maintain balance as she stops to attempt a kick away on one leg. The referee can't know this so easily, however... so it's an honest presumption to make. It's just too bad that it cost the game. I like to see teams win from skill, not referees.

France is the most technical and the best tactical team sucks that they lost because they're the only female team that I can watch without cringing.

You guys are all about "if's" and "but's" and "deserves" but you forget that as deserving as you may be you can not always win... you see it's nice to say words such as "should've" and "deserves" but I can name matches where superior teams should've won and hadn't because... well... the odds were against them. I hope you guys get my point as what I wrote may seem vague to some. If teams that were superior always won it'd be boring as you know what the outcome would be. But having these odds against teams is what makes the sport exciting to watch as it gives you a reason to watch it; You know like everybody else that the outcome could go either way. It's 4 am right now so don't kill me if you don't get what I'm talking about.

[@Sharde8626]

If you watch closely enough, you will see that Germany's goalie's feet are leaving the line before the ball is struck on just about every PK. This is very common and very hard to call. Although she didn't save the previous 4 kicks, watch those and you will see the obvious. I played goalie and know the slightest split second jump to cut down the angle can make a big difference.

[@SilverStar343]

France was definitely the better Team overall but my god the conversion of chances was just bad and they could have won this easily against Germany with their weakest Performance yet. The Penalty call is justifiable in my opinion because her whole arm is sticking out normally you would try to hold them close to your body so the referee thinks you didn't try to deliberately block the ball with your arm. The German Team was very lucky to make it through to the semi finals but sometimes all you need is luck to win an important match.

kamar sinclair bet you regret saying all this huh lol

[@jorgeponce7947]

Kemme (#22) didn't want to mess up with Thomis, who was running up and down freely that right wing.

[@tbisrael9]

I think it was a fair penalty awarded to Germany... it was very clear and obvious, in spite of diverse opinions... two things killed the French team in my opinion, those obvious chances they had in first half that they lost. I have seen this occurred over and over again in this tournament, when the better team lacks the will to score goals and eventually they lose later in the game when they are exhausted or frustrated. Secondly, the coach's decision to substitute Thomis and Sommers was the most terrible decision I can ever think of by a coach!!

[@AlexAlex-yf7oo]

Israel Borokini I totally agree! After the subs France lost so much speed on the wings that Germany could get back into the game

[@orsa99]

Exactly! Thomis was the focal point of almost every French attack in the first half, and if the French strikers could finish she would have had at least 3 assists in the first half alone. The coach made the mistake though thinking after they scored the game would be over and subbed of his best attacker for a defensive winger and the one who would miss the final penalty. Big mistake on the coaches part to think the game was over especially against a physically and mentally strong German squad who can pull of results from nothing.

Another example of women being tougher, more fair play, and less whiny than the guys in pro sports (it's really apparent with MMA). No wonder they're called the stronger sex. And I'm a guy.

La loi 12 invite l'arbitre à "prendre en considération" plusieurs critères: • le mouvement de la main en direction du ballon (et non du ballon en direction de la main) • la distance entre l’adversaire et le ballon (ballon inattendu) • la position de la main, qui ne vaut pas nécessairement infraction Ni la "main décollée du corps" ni "la main qui va vers le ballon" n'obligent en soi à siffler une faute, contrairement à ce que l'on entend souvent. Allez ma canadienne, va relire les règles du foot, ou alors arrête l'arbitrage, c'était pas un match de DH, mais de coupe du monde.

What a robbery from Germany. Pathetic referee. France were clearly the best team.

[@alexanderplatypus3664]

AttackTheGasStation1 Totally agree

[@Amoniak7]

AttackTheGasStation1 ja, wir haben die Gallier schon beraubt, als die FIFA noch die Initialen SPQR trug... und die Schiedsrichter damals waren auch alle armselig! Aber die besseren waren sie nie!

AttackTheGasStation1 sour loser everybody! haha deal with it.

[@softclay4thought]

AttackTheGasStation1 Germany had a lucky day because France outplayed them by a wide margin. The official overlooked a German hand ball earlier in the match. We need more officials posted close to the goals to see everything.

softclay4thought actually the only thing football needs is a honest dealing with the farce called "respect", "no racism" and "fair play" - the only thing you need is a life - because you do not have anything from a title some girls in Canada would win.
