    France made a bit of a statement last night putting 5 past Italy before half time...... this is even more of a statement

    7-0..... England still moving the ball around really nicely even though Norway have gone 5 at the back, this could be any amount England want....... Norway could also be in trouble as Austria could still knock them out in final game......

    That’s how you put a team to the sword.
    Well done ladies. Superb performance!

    I just hope we don't hear how tired players are and that there are too many games when this afternoon Liverpool Red play Manchester Red in Bangkok......

    Such is the bollox that is top flight football Liverpool even had their own groundsman go with them so he could oversee the playing surface not only at the ground but also the training facility.........

    High prices for Bangkok friendly

    There has been criticism of the prices being charged for today's game in Bangkok, which are even more than it costs to get into a Justin Bieber concert here in November.

    There is some sympathy for the organisers though.

    Both Liverpool and Manchester United demanded high-class surfaces, not only at the Rajamangala Stadium but at their training facilities as well.

    Liverpool even had their own groundsman on hand last night to give the pitch a mow and a roll in the half-hour gap from United's training session to theirs.

    England v NI tonight. Great achievement for NI to get to the Euros given the size and infrastructure, but you fear for them against England. Haven’t seen much of the tournament but have enjoyed what I have seen, some serious skills on show.

    I have seen most on TV and been to 2 matches...3rd tomorrow

    The skill is amazing...but the heavy defending is not. To me the difference between the teams is actually the good teams have strong tackling defence, the bad teams do not.

    England are so good because they have a masterful defence that allows their attackers to attack.

    Portugal, Denmark, Spain great attack...but pitiful defence

    I think the women's game has improved incredibly over the last few years.
    The top sides play some really good stuff and the players are technically excellent.
    England may well rest a few for tonight.

    Germany are the best team I've seen. I'd take them to beat England with their pure physicality.

    Yes, I've seen England, but not against anyone any good. Have you seen Germany?

    My first job tomorrow is laying out German flags in the German section of the stadium...paid for by German FA.
    Remind anyone of anything.


    Tomorrow's crowd at Milton Keynes will be the top attendance record for any women's Euro match that did not include the host. In for a very busy day...

    Yep. Spain the better side without really threatening.....yet.
    England need to move the ball quicker and get it to the wide players.

    Spain score.........
