They are rampant and enjoyable to watch. They play football the "right way". Deserved finalists, sadly I would fancy them against our national (mens) side. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 4 minutes ago, For Your Pies Only said: I think this was a tournament too far for Lindahl. She's been a big part of Sweden's relative success in tournaments over the past decade and a bit, but you feel she is being selected on reputation rather than merit lately. Got a way with a few errors in the group stages and has had a shocker tonight. Lindahl doesn't deserve all the blame. Sweden started well and should conceivably have been leading, and even at 0-2 in the second-half they had England pegged back but failed to score. After that, cave-in. Whilst England are undoubtedly a very good team/squad they have at times look exposed and they've benefited from goals at crucial times in the last two matches, none more so than Toone's equaliser against a technically better Spain. Germany on the traditional penalties on Sunday please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 You can't put a gloss on that. Sweden were thoroughly skelped. Some great performances from the English lassies - and Earps, Williamson and Bright at the back were magnificent after the first half hour. I still fancy Germany for the tournament but tomorrow night should be some game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 So tomorrow I'll find out whether I'm cheering on France or Germany on Sunday at Wembley... Hopefully Germany as I've got a German shirt at the ready. [emoji16] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunfermline Don Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 They would be quite enjoyable to watch if we didn’t have to watch it on the equivalent of England Fans TV. I am just glad I am away camping over the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mantra throughout the tournament is that pace & power>>>technical ability. We saw that for England vs Spain and, I think, we saw it again tonight in that - player for player - Sweden are more technically gifted than England. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to enjoy periods of relative success when both the men and women can reach a final of a major tournament. It is meant to be fun you know. I mean, I was at Scotland's (men's) win against Denmark and there was some proper celebration after that, and that was just for winning a home draw in a tie that was then lost! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennie makevin Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 There must be a way to link the glorious Lionesses triumphs with the ongoing Brexit related (or not, according to taste) travel chaos at the Channel ports ....... " She thinks she's in Dover....she is now !!" I'm off to run that past Julie Etchingham.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 BBC Breakfast did a piece this morning about some silly baldy man who went to the pub to watch the match with his “mates”. The pub and it’s atmosphere was exactly like the Doritos advert. There was even a baby in its wee rocker chair there. Absolutely fucking woeful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
