FIFA Women's World Cup 2023

England look rattled...

 

Spain looking really comfortable on the ball

 

England need to change something. Need to get a hold of the ball and keep it better. Can see Spain getting another

 

Struggling to get the ball off them and when we do we give it away too cheaply. We need to start getting the ball up to the front 2 more

 

Spain press causing problems

 

Spains press, width, pace, passing......causing problems

 

Apart from hitting the bar have we had a shot?

 

No shot in last 20 minutes for England

 

England being outplayed here.
For all her supposed tactical nous, the coach has got this very wrong.
Totally outnumbered in midfield.
Toone may as well not be out there.
She needs to change it or it will be 2 or 3 by the end.
Spain look very, very good.

 

Need to get James on 2nd half, she's a game changer. Need to get stuck it to them and unsettle them

 

James won't plug the gaps in midfield though.
Yes, bring her on instead of Toone, who is frankly nowhere near good enough.
I'd also take off the other main weak link, Stanway and bring on the girl who stood in for Walsh.

 

Agreed, but at least James can get something out of nothing and maybe unsettle them and change the momentum

 

Hopefully Kelly will cone on and save us again !

 

James and Kelly both on for Russo and Daly ! Strange players to take off. Certainly an offensive move

 

Spain too good for us today.

 

Going for it. Back 4 now I think.
Still think they'll be outplayed in midfield.
Bronze is so over rated. Gave the ball away for the goal and just did it again.
She gives the ball away over and over again.

 

Yep. They've been excellent.
We've got it wrong tactically though.
Just have to hope we somehow get back in it.

 

You can't miss those......

 

Massive chance for Hemp.
England looking better.

 

If this is a pen we're fecked
