2015 women's world cup

bad officiating, choking, the lot!

really fucking hope the usa doesn't win the whole thing

i do

me2

glad they scored another one tho so the story won't be all about that foul being outside of the box

deffo, was a well worked goal also

ilx stopped working for me last night but yeah the US were p misshapen and not very good in the second half, Rapinoe did next to nothing. the Japan team wd be more likely to punish a repeat of that than the England one (this is all armchair punditry based on watching bits of this WC but we're taking that as a given right)

Why isn't leroux playing?

yeah I thought she was bulletproof

the real winners

"if you appeal to the referee, nine times out of ten you're gonna get the decision"

BBC's co-commentator on dis ting is #WorseThanTownsend let's not be in doubt

if she's the one i'm thinking of then fucking hell she is hateful

i've got eurosport

game has settled into its fated pattern: japanese tippy-tappy reaches edge of box, english long ball through to keeper

oh god is the bbc co-commentator the one who was fellating the usa for 93 minutes yesterday

ah good lookin out, was under the impression that it was a Beeb exclusive. just switched over

Bardsley flaps awkward freekick over the bar, goalkick given. do the kids still say 'standard'

it was offside so the shit officiating balanced out

true

whoever the Eurosport co-commentator is she sounds like a female Glenn Hoddle. tick.jpg

think she's the current Chelsea Ladies' manager

not gonna let toni duggan play headers and volleys with my crew, fucking sheesh

haha! the ref strikes!

lol

rafferty is so shit though, 80% her fault

eurosport main commentator bleatingly comparing that to the hand of god

fucking gonna watch the american stream

you just feel the japanese have better ball control.

perhaps there are too many foreign players in the english women's league.

don't blame the manager, blame the players.

we coach our kids to win games at under 9s - this doesn't happen in tokyo.

it's time we invested in our youth women's game.

nah garda, it's "the fucking ref screwed us" until further notice

fox sports commentators are rly good. also both female, which is nice

LOL

the moral high ground is dead, long live evil

dece penalty, Eurosport reckon it was soft and/or a dive?

Japan hammered it into England's box straight from the kickoff, not sure if that was petulance or what

xp no "root and branch change", no credibility

it was the most hilarious no-contact dive an england player has ever perpetuated

all 4 teams in the semis have been awarded a penalty

the only one that was a penalty was missed

yr a bunch of miserable cunts. i love sue smith and her crazy hairstyles.

hmm, there was contact for the england pen, in fact, but it was so, so soft

the england penalty is more embarrassing than our government

lol tasha dowie is horrible

"i felt japan were a bit cocky and disrespectful to england before the game" ... "i haven't actually watched japan this world cup"

i turned it off cos the commentary was so bad. great to see bbc's diversity, hiring the shittest commentators around regardless of gender.

it would be like getting andros townsend to commentate an england men's world cup game

or phil neville

D:

thought that header from Scott was in

Japan amusingly incapable of playing a ball along the ground

Japan have waited until the last 20 minutes to bring on their best player; will England respond with Kirby

the long cross button on my old xbox controller was broken and I used to play Fifa basically the way Japan plays

long pass button

slo mo chest trap

own glol

ENGLANDE

Oof that's a heartbreak

they tried so hard, and got so far.. but in the end

...they kicked it in their own goal
