On Sunday at 2:45 pm ET the United States will play Japan in the 2011 Women's World Cup Final.  Looking back over the past few weeks, this has been the most competitive Women's World Cup, with thrilling games, upsets, and great goals.  The last two teams standing play contrasting styles, but each has been effective in getting results when it matters most.  Japan has been compared to Barcelona, with their possession style attack with Sawa serving as Messi.  The United States has shown how important goalkeeping can be, as Hope Solo has provided timely saves, while Wambach and Co. have scored important goals against less than stellar goalkeeping.  Our six original analysts had all picked Germany to win, but with only two teams left, they have better odds of being right this time.  We also have added a few others to give their insight into the biggest women's soccer game of the year.
