spacemunky Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 No more pens for Parris. Twice now she's made that same shot. Let Bronze tear into one!

Countryfox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Shame if Norway go out ... bloody good looking team ...

fazzyfox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 There"s Norway they can score three in three minutes
urban fox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Stanway lucky not to get booked there. didn't need to be much of a lip reader to see that she told the ref to F off

fazzyfox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Well done for achieving a semi. And to the players, well done for getting through to the semi finals.

spacemunky Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Good win. Hafta eliminate those mistakes though to get to the final.
Super_horns Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Very solid from England . Early goal helped and we took the chances well. Strep up in class next but we have beaten the US or France before .
fazzyfox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Now where did I stash that bunting and paper plate combo, they could get used at last

Yes will not get away with some of the sloppy passing France or USA will punish that but I actually think we are growing into the tournament and really think we are in with a proper chance
ALC Fox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 France or USA will be a tougher test but England don't half look good! There's a rick or two in them for sure. Millie Bright had a horrid five minutes or so when she could've cost us three goals, but the rest of the team stood up to cover for her. A fantastic team performance!
urban fox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 That is 5 wins out of five and only one goal conceded. that is pretty good going
Countryfox Posted 27 June 2019 Posted 27 June 2019 Commentator just pointed out Lucy Bronze used to play with her hair down ... good point girl !!

fuchsntf Posted 28 June 2019 Posted 28 June 2019 Nobody ,ob this Forum knows how to be positive!!! . Everybody wants a Slice of being a pundit,instead of showing support!! England Women played well,I totaly enjoyed the game...They are into the semi-finals. 4 Top Teams . ..England deservedly One of them.....!
Jimothy Posted 28 June 2019 Posted 28 June 2019 I was trying to work out where this would sit on the scale of sporting joy for me should we win this thing. The media are going to try and build it up as ending the "years of hurt" since 66, but it won't, it's not THE World Cup. I'd say its probably in tier 4, below Leicester winning anything and England winning a major trophy. Below a brit winning a tennis major or a golf major. For it's probably level with England winning a youth world cup or the rugby or cricket world cup (not a huge fan of rugby or cricket, but I'm happy if we win). The media will try and big this up, and I'll be delighted for the girls, but I can't pretend its huge. As an aside I mentioned to someone last night, that I hear lots of talk of building the game here in England/Britain, but we're apparently not bidding to host any of the next 3 world cups. If we're serious about building up the popularity why are we not looking at bringing the tournament here? We have the stadiums, it won't take any infrastructure changes, we could host it tomorrow.

I don't get why "the home of football" has not produced a competitive women's team before the last few years. Dominance has been by US, Germany and the Scandinavians. Is it simply the attitude in this country that football is a man's sport? Personally, I would agree with the ratings of the women's world cup, it doesn't come high on the agenda.

But support Should be the Key word, for the Moment in time,und Not Male-Macho cynicism,that comes too often to the fore...! There have been periods over the last 25 years,where Womens sport ( Not just English women) where I have enjoyed internationally more the Womens playing Presentation,than that of the men...!
