England have been pretty poor overall this tournament, and yet they have made it to the final. They've done it through absolute sheer determination and will power. Quality stuff.

:lol: Nah. England are reigning champions but I haven’t enjoyed watching them this time around. Haven’t played that well and a bit lucky to be in the final IMO

Not you Jill.

Me? Look England are better than Italy but it’s no real surprise the game looked like it did when Italy got the first goal, don’t you agree? They’ve done well, they’re not really a big team yet in women’s football (maybe now)

England are a canny unlikeable side like. You’d be fizzing if you were foreign.

 

I find the Lionesses quite likeable. The men's team is a lot different, probably because they play for rival clubs in the PL.

To say England didnt deserve that win based on the performances is not a fair reflection. We lacked a lot of quality and should have scored more earlier, but Italy never looked like winning it, even 1-0 up.

I didn't say that, in fact I said the opposite

Regardless of my prehistoric, misogynistic view of women's football conflicting with my, everyday, learning through wokeness to better myself as an accepting human Man, I enjoyed that. 

Went to the the Black Bull (Benton) after footy to see we were 1 zip down. 

Whole bar celebrated the equaliser, which was nice. 😂

Watched the 2nd half of extra bollox when I got home. 

Fair play to them

WOW, recorded the game and just finished watching. This last week has certainly been entertaining. Congrats to the English lasses. One thing that pisses me off. When comms say penalties should only be called at certain times. Fuck that. If something is a foul in the 30th minute it also is also is in the 118th.

You could argue weather or not it's a penalty but do not give me this line of shite it only should be called at certain time. 

That said, the Italian lasses looked shook after the equalizer. England seemed the better team after that for the first time.

Sounds like the men, just sneaking through.

Kelly’s run up for the penalty is absolutely weird 


Basically guaranteed that she can’t open her body and hit it to the right I think, making it pretty predictable. 

 

It somehow enables her to hit it arousingly hard, though. The one against Nigeria at the World Cup was 70mph.

 

Spoiler

:megusta:

I'm sure her pen against Sweden went to the right!!

Not sure you can replace Russo from the start with all the work she does. Could maybe replace James with Kelly and play Hemp on the right?

James has been shocking throughout the tournament. It's no surprise that England improved when she was replaced. It's a shame because James is quality on her day. She looks like she has been training in McDonald's.
