I think most of us have stopped following this tournament, but it’s worth checking out the end of the US-Germany semifinal match.

Highlights here: https://www.plus.fifa.com/en/player/04a4aa08-05b3-476a-b8c9-579d837af4e2?catalogId=c42308a9-a451-4836-ad61-b0a1dbfb0270

That was quarter finals.

The US just lost to North Korea 1-0, first half goal. 

Other semi is Japan vs. Netherlands, the former knocked out Spain the holder.

Thanks, edited my post.

Still quite an amazing ending to normal time in that match.

I have been watching bits and pieces of the Japan/Netherlands game.  Kudos to the Dutch for hanging in there and keeping it scoreless after the first half.  The Japanese look so good on attack in the final third.  No smoking hard passes or fancy chips, they just push the ball into spaces to team mates anticipating perfectly.  They look like a perfectly synchronized machine.  The final shot is hard to get through the packed Dutch players, but it seems like it is only a matter of time before it happens.
