Jealous mate. I’ve only got tickets for one more match but it’s the final

Sweden dull and boring (just like their men’s team) and making no attempt to win, USA just clueless.

 

[Cricko]

Bye bye USA.

It's funny to see the Americans go out (especially with goal line technology needed to confirm the last penalty went in) but that was absolutely awful football from Sweden, it wouldn't surprise me if Japan beat them by 4 or 5.

True but the goalkeeper tried to save it twice which isn't allowed. Had she not done that it would of gone in anyway.

Goalkeepers can make as many touches as they want, it's the striker that's only allowed to touch it once.

Pretty sure that’s incorrect. The goalie can make as many attempts as they like.

Bring on tomorrow nights games ️️

Walsh returns in midfield.

Today I'm wearing the only England shirt I ever bought in honour of the lionesses.



Frightening to realise it was the 2002 away shirt, but so very pleasing that it still fits. Obviously an omen that the girls will do well.

That’s the reversible one isn’t it? I have it too. Hopefully brings us good luck

 

[RHB]

Wow, Nigeria definitely up for it and by far the better side so far.

Yep. On the good luck front and the way we are playing, I may have to change it for the Southend home shirt soon

 

[southendkid]

Amateur hour on BBC, the audio is out of sync so I knew the ball was hitting the bar before the shot had even been taken.

 

[RHB]

Not a penalty - Really? FFS

 

[South Bucks Shrimper]

Awful decision.
