It is indeed .. soft VAR penalty … I’ll take itIt took 20 minutes or so, but the incredibly boring style of play from Canada was finally broken down by Sweden who dominated the rest of the time and is leading into the half 1-0. Makes it clear that Sweden was better than the U.S. and I think would have won the gold no matter what. U.S. couldn't figure out the Canada style (though they clearly outplayed Canada, who needed a penalty to advance). I still stand by Canada being the weakest team among the last four - Sweden have to be thrilled with the draw.
Should be a straightforward second half, but you never know, the VAR is still active.
