Good try, USA, and thanks for the hits

The Women's World Cup has ended, with Japan pulling out a shootout win over the United States.
After the group stage, I thought the U.S. would lose to Brazil in the quarterfinals. I put up a Rule 5 post "End near for Women's World Cup."
The U.S. won instead, and the hits kept coming to the post.
Even today. When people searching Google for Women's World Cup came to my blog instead of ESPN, CNN or somewhere soccer or news site.
Headlines. So important in blogging.
Good job by Japan, coming back late twice.
The better luck next time, U.S., but the world keeps getting better in this sport.
