Pretty amazing result today to take the womans England team to the World Cup final against Spain on Sunday.

It's always nice to beat the Aussies at sport. There was silliness going on before the game - one paper flew a helicopter over the England team during a training session "to try to learn their tactics", apparently. Probably just trying to mess with their preparation.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Can we pull up the goalposts, burn them and hand the remains to the Aussies in a small urn?

Good luck to the ladies for Sunday.
It's a shame that some members seem to have to make pathetic sexist comments on here.

That would be the referee that gave Spain a penalty.
A good game, deserving of the occasion. Well done Spain.An ex-Disco3 / FFRR / I-Pace owner ......

Hmm ... certain amount of irony that you commented on a year-old post, don't you think?.

Thoroughly enjoyed today's game, if not the result.
Can't help thinking the boost it will give the domestic games will mean Man Utd Women's team will have to move their home games away from Leigh Sports Village ... max capacity 12000..

A marvellous opportunity for all the haters out there:
Women haters: Easy game compared to a men's' match.
Men haters: See, women did it when then men can't.
Black haters: See, don't need black players in the team
White haters (e.g., BBC): Lack of diversity; young black women 'can't identify' with the team
Football haters: Waste of time. Had to watch Netflix
Military haters: Using the military-industrial complex to associate celebrations with aggression
Anti-colonialists: Other countries had football and cricket forced upon them when they were colonies.

That chap seems to have forgotten that one of the key not-white players got herself banned by virtue of her stupid conduct.
And it was Sky / Daily Mail carrying the story rather than the right-wing/left-wing BBC. So you got that wrong... Visiting from rrsport.co.uk
