    Only just started watching, but France look pretty poor, as Germany take the lead 2-1.
    Shame, as I reckon we'd have murdered the French.

    Didn't see any of the game as watching the T20 between England and South Africa......... Good game and with 5 overs left game was in the balance, but some fine death bowling by Chris Jordan restricted SA and England won by 41 runs.......

    The lad Stubbs for SA looks some player hit 72 from 28 balls to make it a bit too close for comfort........

    England v Germany final then, as I thought. England play better passing football, but the Germans are stronger physically and will be dangerous from set pieces. Should be a good game.

    My money's already on Germany, but I won't mind too much if I lose my bet.

    The German defence wouldn't be too happy facing Russo, like I said she's a unit and a handful and a tad unpredictable.

    As a volunteer I got to see the middle part of the match from (15 min to 75 min)...and had a great view on half way line.
    German were overall the better team, but on the counter France were good and strong...and when France broke away there was a lot of tugging, pulling and heavy tackles.

    German can be beaten, but we need to hold our shape, our discipline and our tempers.

    Yes, from what I saw, the Germans looked very physical and niggly.
    Hopefully there'll be a good ref in the final.
    The refereeing is definitely an area that still needs to improve in the women's game.

    Give it a rest.
    Why always so confrontational?

    Should be 2-0 but for a fine save by Huddersfield keeper......... 20 minutes in and we could already be looking at one of the automatic places being filled.....

    Huddersfield were awful 1st half and Burnley were excellent. Bit more even 2nd half but Huddersfield never really threatened, but improved alot with subs. Burnley look very well drilled as you'd expect, and will be a strong side this season.

    It’s going to be the parachute three for the top three, reckon Boro will be up there with Sheff U. Won’t be quite as open this year I feel.

    Broms 2 big midfield buys combine to get them a point at Boro, should really have gone on to win but missed some good opportunities.

    Nunez looks like he's going to be a big players for the Scousers whereas Haaland decided to impersonate Dykes for the day ! Won't stay like obviously

    What l don’t understand is why these two players in particular feel the need to stick their tongue out in a form of ******ation, when they score a goal.

    Is it a mating thing?

    Are they letting sponsors know that there is still advertising space left to fill?

    So many questions yet so few answers!
