    England just shading the first half, no real Japanese threat and then out of nothing a stupid soft penalty is given away. Then a very soft penalty to England. Two great pens though - much better than England mens.

    Refs might be pish, but look at the difference in reaction towards them in comparison to the men....

    After watching them both again - the first one was outside the box and there was contact for the second. Ceteris paribus!

    Wow, Natasha Dowie, seems to be the new Garth Crooks - I never seem to agree with what they are saying!

    A bit annoying that she said she hadn't watched Japan this tournament. You're commentating on it and they're the holders!

    I haven't seen one successful long pass from either team.

    Long, hopeful punts are England's best chance IMO. You are not going to beat Japan at a possession/technical game; no one can. But you can use size and quick counters to your advantage.
