***Unofficial: England vs France***

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Never watched a kick of women's football and probably never will.

 

[zego]

France sacrifice creative mid-fielder for striker ...

And England swap two backs for two backs ...

 

[zego]

6 minutes to go (plus extra), England make final sub

and France miss - yet again!!

and again!! ...

AAAGGGHHHH but now have scored!!

 

[dingodan]

Maybe its just because I just miss the footy season as much as I do, but the last few minutes have been pretty good. Some decent passing.

Oh and france just scored a beautiful goal.

Props to ladies.

 

[Giraffe]

Terrible defending

 

[brightn'ove]

The French team are class! Fast, strong, skillfull - the England team are... Well .. shit!

 

[Falkor]

1-1 f***ing class goal

 

[zego]

4 mins extra time ...

... and becomes another 30mins, then maybe pens ...

Its just possible that France used up a lot of energy in that last quarter, up to and after getting their equaliser.

If England stay calm maybe still are in with a chance.

 

[El Presidente]

I liked the way our keepers dived for the ball AFTER it was in the net.

 

[zego]

Wowee/aagghhh just the wrong side of the post!


and the first half survived, with France doing all the running - will they burn out in the last half?

 

[brightn'ove]

Ouch! A kick right in the knockers!

 

[zego]

2mins extra before pens ...

 

[Art Vs Science]

Only watched the last 5 mins, but saw a pitchside advert for this company which made me chuckle

 

[The Wookiee]

Bound to lose on pens

 

[zego]

Pens!!

In with a chance, well deserved ....

Effectively won extra time, playing all of it with a crippled player.

And our goalkeeper is much better than theirs!

 

[Smithy]

Dreadful pen for the French.

Kelly Smith scores.

 

[zego]

The cripple scores!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[1066familyman]

Nice save from Bardsley and quality opener from Smith

 

[zego]

and again, 2-1 up!!!

still a miss ahead.

 

[1066familyman]

Blimey, that short run up had me nervous...but no need to worry
