Women's World Cup 2023

[Lord Camomile]

Whatever you were doing Sunday, cancel it

I'm meeting up with a mate, but thankfully caught the date and so had already told him when we arranged it that it'd have to be after the final

 

[savoloysam]

Every player has been magnificent today. Every single one. Performance of the tournament for me. Play like that in the final and Spain won't have a chance.

 

[Lord Camomile]

6 minutes

Plenty of time for Australia to cancel England's Sunday plans...

If England do get through, have to assume the crowd will be overwhelmingly against them/supporting Spain in the final

 

[Lord Camomile]

Australia try and play the quick throw in down the line, Bronze just says "nah, fuck off", and heads it back out of play

 

[savoloysam]

Lauren Hemp. Definitely player of the match for me. Outstanding performance full of quality and grit.

 

[two sheds]

Good game

 

[hash tag]

Great match, superb result

 

[Lord Camomile]

Toone looked a bit limpy there

 

[ruffneck23]

Excellent.

Well done England.

 

[ElizabethofYork]

Brilliant!!

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Brilliant game. England the better side but it was in the balance up to that final goal. Three quality finishes. Earps made one important save. Great team performance. And well done Aus as well. They gave it a good go.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Phenomenal!

 

[belboid]

Great game, shame it wasn’t the final.

 

[two sheds]

hehe first mention of 1966

 

[Petcha]

God I hate that fucking song

 

[savoloysam]

Toone looked a bit limpy there

She will likely be dropped for James anyway.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

She will likely be dropped for James anyway.

Dunno. That's a proper dilemma. I can see Toone starting, James supersub role.

Nice problem to have.

 

[hash tag]

She will likely be dropped for James anyway.

Breaking up a winning team for James

 

[Steel Icarus]

Nick Cave, Harold Bishop, Tony Abbott, Chopper Read, Dannii Minogue, that bloke with his succulent Chinese meal..your girls took a hell of a beating!

 

[Lord Camomile]

"You can't ever dismiss that (3rd place playoff) game" - with respect, Ellen, I think plenty have done just that over the years.

Have to think/hope Australia (and Sweden) won't on Saturday, though.

 

[Petcha]

What's the point of a bronze medal match. I mean, really. Is it just a commercial/telly thing?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Aye, must be so bittersweet for recently (and not so recently) retired players, to see where the game is now compared to when they were playing.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Fara Williams obviously been shouting

 

[savoloysam]

What's the point of a bronze medal match. I mean, really. Is it just a commercial/telly thing?

Yeah. Never got myself. As a player in a losing semi you just want to go home.

 

[skyscraper101]

James will be well rested for Sunday too.

 

[two sheds]

will give her a leg up

 

[planetgeli]

Couldn't post, once I hadn't. Superstition and all that.

Good game, exceptional from every England player. Really, really pleased.

 

[inva]

With that result I can safely say I'm happy for Kerr she at least started a game and got that one moment, would've been a real shame if she hadn't.

Goal of the tournament is a corker of a competition. I think I'm still edging towards Caicedo, but that was special from Kerr. Maybe Kerr now deserves it.

It's so there's a third prize in office sweepstakes.
