And all because that midfielder didn't move 5 yards for the Bronze through ball

Boo. It had been looking likely
Damn. Beautiful finish but poor lack of covering the right back position and Russo looked like she was running in sand trying to get back.
Never mind, these women are tough, they have the mentality to get back into this.

Bad decision making from Bronze choosing to run into the opponents rather than squaring the ball to her teammate.
Bronze left a huge hole at the back.

Toone clueless there. She had acres of space to run into down the left but didn't show for the pass Bronze wanted to make. Move breaks down, Bronze out of position, goal.
Them not being there is a plus for me, TBH.
10 years ago, I was getting ready for a massive career change (and drop in salary) to become a full-time youth football coach.
I ended up as the Development Officer for Women's and Girls' Football at AITC, putting in place a player pathway for female footballers as there was only one for boys, and putting 30 players into academies in the 2 and a bit seasons I ran our centres.
I'm now at a grass roots club where we they have gone from one girls' team to having teams from U9s to our first U18s team (managed by me) this season - plus a Wildcats centre for younger ones - and I hope to complete the pathway with a development and senior women's team over the next couple of seasons.
So, yeah, I'm a JCL.
I'm also (less heavily) involved in grassroots boys' football, as my daughter plays in a "boys" league too, and the players/parents/most of the coaches I encounter are the kind of people that make me much prefer being involved in female football.

Toone misses a sitter although she was offside.
Undav would have scored that. Sorry, wrong thread.

If Toone gets subbed at half- time she can have no complaints. It's been like 10 v 11 the whole half.

Close for Spain again - clipped the post. 1-0 Half Time. Spain the better team.

England naive.
Outclassed technically but only just as both teams are poor.
Looks a bit like school kid football at times.
Come on girls, you're much better than this.

Both teams poor? Think Spain have been very good

Daly and Bronze wary of getting too far forward because they know Bright and Carter have no pace, and they know there's no cover in behind them.
After watching a team of monsters yesterday this is absolutely gash in comparison. Going off if Spain score again.

Walking through town this morning about 10 am, we came across a group of slightly pissed, loud, overweight women wearing England shirts heading in the direction of the North Street Spoons. How refreshing to see equality in England fandom at last.
