Women’s World Cup France 2019, 7 June - 7 July

Many xps to Jim, literally exact same story for me - and she went on to play cricket for Scotland. Could’ve done with her in the goal today I reckon

Choppy match here.

was appreciating the radio-esque level of description on the BBC screening and it turns out it is just the 5 Live commentary

England pen, right call, ropey kick from Parris, decent save, rebound prob should have been turned in

yeah it's a bit mad to think about in retrospect. i remember telling someone here, my gf maybe, that girls didn't play football because it was a game for boys basically and them just looking at me like id time-travelled to canada from edwardian scotland

got a hypothetical question. where might a piratic individual stream these games since the shutdown of the reddit soccer stream sub?

watching the ones during the week at work using a colleague's login with their cable provider but have no means for the weekend

f00tybite dot com still seems to be active

ta

Aw yeah.

Miedema pressure off it seems. But still feel Netherlands are too slow and static in getting the ball to their star players on top.

canada should have so many goals

Only 2-0 in the 28th minute, crisis in the US camp?

Oooh and a confirmed incorrect call leading to the corner kick for the second goal.

Usa just goofin around. Can’t wait for them to face some real danger

Psg gk good tho

may or may not have said AAAHH YOU WANKER in response to that missed panalty

Deserved player of the match award to Endler

That's for damned sure. Single-handedly kept it from being another blowout. We all gave her a round of applause at the bar I was at.

Endler's Game

Three penalties in the two games tonight. Norway scored both of theirs, France missed.

lol retake

what did you think about that france penalty decision? seemed mibbe soft but possibly not, i wasn't really convinced

oh god, dozen players in the box

retake goes in

Penalty was a bit soft but I can see why it was given. I thought the keeper had a heel on the line the first time the penalty was taken but idk. Combination of VAR and semiprofessional clumsiness is killing this tournament.

this game has started pleasingly violently. straight reds please

italy going in studs-up like it's 1972

omfg that zola flick + save will end up being the best second of football of this entire tournament

italy have been the team i've most enjoyed watching so far in this world cup. without being remotely long ball their midfielders always look to pass frwd first rather than square

The Debinha flick was stunning.

these delayed flags are so dumb

she was 3 yards off, raise the flag ffs

this is a guid wee game so far afaict while half watching it on one monitor while i "work"

that Italy counter + volley + save is the second best second of football this tournament will see

that italy counter was so lovely

xp

having any football tournament starting with a number of teams which ensures that you need to advance some 3rd place group teams into the knockout rounds is fucking stupid

So great to see Italy, on the back of a breakthrough season for their league, show off this level of play, doing fun stuff, already through to the knockouts

xp. true. though neither of my teams would've qualified if it was smaller and surely the experience for the smaller teams will be helpful? (maybe not, getting gubbed repeatedly might be bad)

yep xxp

lol Hope Solo otm re: running away from Mike Tyson, kind of unbelievable the British presenter didn't just mention Serena Williams

Yay Jamaica!

cracking wee lofted through ball by marta there

that is an absolute joke decision

eh?

fuck penaltyball, fuck these refs

16 penalties in 30 games. Well done Marta though.

honestly thought that was a penalty, looked soft on initial viewing but played the woman not the ball and barged into her, it's a penalty

One of the less controversial ones imo.

side to side challenge with the Italian in front, I just can't buy it

these refs ffs ffs

and the idiot co-commentator 'thats a late challenge' no it was perfectly timed, what are you on
