Clear video of the penalty btw.
Guess that is a pen but offensive player is creating the contact and knows what she is doing by getting in front of the defender. Pretty harsh, though to be fair US got some similarly borderline pens in last World Cup.
There's a measure of karma that it is Canada that knocked out the US here at the Olympics. Going back nine years, they really deserved that win in the semifinals. Very shady indirect kick for goalie holding the ball too long and then a hand ball penalty on the ensuing indirect kick. That was one of the all-time games I have ever seen.
