    Same player has pulled the Dutch out of the **** 3 times now, great anticipation to block the ball.

    At least this is better than yesterday's Sweden game, which was absolutely dire. I still can't work out how Belgium managed to get this far in the comp, let alone have a 4ft 9 defender. I'll be surprised if England don't easily get pass Sweden on physical play alone, unless the Swedes were not showing their best against a poor contender.

    We certainly got the easier side of the draw, not sure who i would prefer if we get through to the final (which we certainly should do), France can be good and technical but Germany have a bit more speed and power.
    Overall i would say we are by far the better attacking team of the three.

    I was thinking much the same, we should easily get pass Sweden if we show the same physicality, like you I think it will be a Germany v France semi-final but as per the norm for me, that will all change in the next 45 mins lol. As for winning it, usual runners ups for us on pens probably.

    i dont think that was the best of the Swedes

    they were pre tournament favourites so I’m guessing they must be miles better than what we watched last night.

    I'm thinking we only recently set back up the women's team after covid, I could be wrong, but for some reason I'm thinking they were one of the casualties due to the shortfall in income.

    France deserved winners, although I think they will need to improve on their shooting boots against the Germans.

    Spanked the Chavs 4-0 last night in a pre season friendly. Jesus scored again and has scored in every pre season game.

    I know it's only pre season, but it all bodes well <ok>
