What an amazing game, I was one of 7.5 mill that watched it and It was a delight to watch.

Let's wish them luck against the yanks. Totally hooked now.

Totally agree with OP, amazing and entertaining game.

Well done the Lionesses - you showed your male counterparts what commitment means and the pride in wearing an England shirt.

Been an excellent tournament all round, one or two dodgy refs, but overall very good. Huge viewing figures around the World, just what Women’s Football needed. The England team were very good against Norway. I had quite fancied Norway up to that point, but not any more! 

The pundits have been good as well, not too much rattle and analysis.

TTDA,  could that be because they are standing around the table , and not sitting in comfy seats thinking how clever they must be ??

 

P.S.  I am in total agreement with you, of course !!

Possibly. It’s good to see reviews of goals and near misses, but as someone female who has a keen interest in football, I find that MOTD is too full of analysis, and it’s got a bit of a Boy’s Own Club now with the resident pundits. Women are less bothered about all the what ifs, and why didn’t they do this, that and other. Dionne Dublin has been very good, but great to see mostly female presenters. The prima donnas are refreshingly absent from the Women’s game. And a whole lot more subtle in terms of getting stuck in! 😁

Other than crazy Cameroon it’s been played with respect & professionalism. I think England have the skills to dump the USA out👍🏻

Hope so Rocky. They looked a tad shaky against France. Cameroonians were playing a different game if you ask me. All credit to England Women for staying calm and focussed. Referee wasn’t strong enough.
