VAR. Killing football wherever it’s in operation.
Very ladylike verbals from the English keeper after saving penalty.
I knew she was going to miss....seems to happen more often than not, that when a player looks to their left just before the kick...they miss..
Earps was always going to save that as long as she chose right, the Spanish player looked scared stiff. I don’t like to see penalties given for that sort of handball, but it was always going to be given with today’s interpretations - surprised it took so long for the decision to be made.
Should have been second yellow for Spain No 18..kicking ball away.
13 minutes added time...!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahaha
Had a decent wager on England, but Spain by far the better team on the day, and deserved winners.
England can complain to some extent about the ref (Spain should have had a player sent off), but the better team won, no doubt about that.
Phew thnk fk for that.
I thought it an excellent thrust into the opposition, she was desperate for the her player on her left to move into the space ahead thus releasing a forward ball, but the player was stationary frightened to go forward, as soon as Bronze went on the run, no one covered for her. Good game and for the football alone Spain deserved the win IMO but disappointed all the same.
Only one team in that. Spain on another level technically. England second best all over the pitch. Congratulations to the winners!
As has been intimated above, the blame shouldn't be aimed at Lucy Bronze, even if she did go a bit further than she should have. Any defender can do that, it's up to others to reorganise and reshuffle to cover the gap.
That was an absolute defensive masterclass from Spain. One of the best defensive performances I have ever seen I think. And not in terms of dramatic last gasp tackles, just in the sense of not letting a very good game create many chances.
Well done Spain!
Right
All over now
Unlucky and all that
