[Football] Women's World Cup

Come again

You're quite right, Icy.

As long as England can keep relying on Haitian finishing, Nigerian penalty-taking and Colombian goalkeeping, their name's on the trophy.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

That was lucky but we'll take it

I was convinced VAR was trying to find a way to disallow it.

You watch too much Albion

I can never watch too much Albion

 

[Triggaaar]

This Colombian ref is a joke

 

[Grizz]

Russo!

 

[Brok]

Get in!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Good finish 2-1 Engerland

 

[Grizz]

Constant theme of Colombian games, Villa levels of shithousery, going down for injuries, breaking up good periods of footy for the other team.

Edit: though saying that she can't carry on.

 

[wunt be druv]

Am I right in booing Caicedo when she has the ball?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Columbia like an elbow don't they

 

[Thunder Bolt]

England through to the semi final despite the referee.

 

[Grizz]

Cracking win, decent match. Carter marshalled Caicedo so well. Really pleased for the Lionesses.

 

[Icy Gull]

My starter was a bit meh, bring on the main course

I think the dessert is going to be shit though. Lacklustre England vs Wales at Twickenham. Hope I’m wrong

 

[jcdenton08]

Well done the Lionesses! Hard fought win against 12 opposition players. Referee was horrendous

 

[hart's shirt]

A better 2nd half from England who ran out deserved winners at the end.

61% possession and 10 shots with 6 on target. An excellent finish from Russo - the little bit of quality that deserved to be the winner.

Ex Brighton player.

@Brighton Lines incoming

I thought the refereeing was of the very highest quality.

I haven't seen any of the game.

Clearly!

It was bad. Not Attwell at Spurs bad, but not far off. Never had control of the game and let Columbia get away with constant kicks, elbows and pull backs.

The one thing that went our way was when we smashed it out for a throw-in, claimed it was our ball, and got the decision. But generally the Colombian's were free to smash into us, sending our players flying, and that was fine. But if Caicedo were to slip and fall, having not been touched - yeah that's a free-kick to Colombia.
