[Football] Are you watching and enjoying the Women’s World Cup?

Find some of the sexists comments a bit churlish , its not as if the men's game is brilliant entertainment every match.

The difference between the men's and women's game can be broken into two main points
a) women's game is more about kicking the ball rather than physical strength
b) women's game has a lot less cheating i.e players rolling around and deliberate time wasting

The ball played in by Mead for the England goal was brilliant at any level.

Totally this.

If you are being ironic then fair play - if you really stand by that sentiment then my god you really need to improve your sense of humour. It is like tuning into a really boring re run of a 70's sitcom.

You mistake my response as being annoyed or angered........ your idea of humour is far too boring for such a response

I watched about 65 mins of the ENG vs ARG game tonight and the absense of cheating, feigning, diving and all-round poor sporting behaviour was hugely refreshing and a massive plus for me. Yes, there were some robust challenges and some late tackles too but the players generally picked themselves up and got on with it. I didn't notice any screaming at / surrounding of the officials either. The elite men's game could learn a huge amount from this aspect of the women's game.

So how many NSCers are watching?

Watching what?

Women's football? What's that?

 

[BN41Albion]

Decided that I wouldn't watch any of it 'cos it would be rubbish. Then decided to give the second half of this evening's game a chance. And it was rubbish. Frankly I'd rather watch Crawley in League 2. That'll be it for me as far as women's football is concerned. Stick to netball girls.

id love to see people like you out there playing against the likes of the England women's team.

Love the sexist comments from blokes who have more than likely played nothing more than Sunday league pub football

Give it time. When the stakes and egos increase, so will the cynical side

 

[Chicken Run]

No I would rather watch Tenables!

To be honest I don’t think you will be missed.

Enjoying Jamaica's goalkeeper!

Voted other...

Only watch The Albion and England (men's) in the final stages of World Cup and Europeans.

 

[ConfusedGloryHunter]

Was at the game last night. No alcohol in the stadium was the only thing I didnt enjoy. The game reminded me of watching Brighton games 25 years ago. But this time I wanted the better team to win...

 

[e77]

Watched both England games.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Fast forward through the highlights on the news, NO!

 

[Albion my Albion]

Dipping in and out.

That's what she said. The Jamaican goalkeeper, Mon.

Anyone finding the US team rather boastful?

The US women think they should be paid the very same as the USMNT.
