    Watched the whole match and it was the best we have played by some distance. And yes, Hemp was outstanding.

    There was always only one winner when she and an opponent collied. She outmusceled, outfought and outplayed them every time. She really seems to have moved her game on to a higher plans in this competition.

    Looking forward to the final on Sunday, shame it clashes with our game against Millwall.

    Some top finishing from both sides in that game. ENG definitely controlled the game and looked good for their win.

    Couldn't see anything so I thought she was pointing at the Adidas logo, so some text on the shirt would make more sense!

    Tricky this for England now, Spain will be increasingly conservative and hold possession.

    It said "merch". No idea what that's referring to. Google translate no help

    Merchi apparently, which is either a reference to her school, or a friend of her mother, according to the two journalists I've seen mention it.

    Gutted for England, Spain were very good though. Disappointed the ref never got a grip of the constant stream of disruption to the game the Spanish team insisted on. England couldn't make a challenge without it causing a 2 min injury break. Spanish striker should have seen red before added time too, ref went to her pocket for a card before realising what it would have meant.
