the winner of the england/canada game will meet the winner of the australia vs japan/holland game in the semi final...
which mean they would have a fantastic chance to get to the final..... |

Would need to play a bit better than they did in the first half earlier though  |

Colombia keeper sent off. Usa missed resultant penalty. Replacement keeper very dodgy!
Entertaining game from what ive seen so far. |

Well done England last night and the Welsh coach, changed the team again and won.
However it was fucking shit and I thought Norway should of finished the game off first half, they didnt so can't have any complaints.
Other than Frank Irby's solo goal England just seem to play better when they lump it forward, but hey if it works, who cares. |

yes japan are the current world cup holders...
yes japan are quite good....
however... england actually beat them in the last world cup 2011 group stages.....
England wont be worried about playing either australia or japan in a potential semi final....
be interesting to see how england play tomorrow.. canada have looked really jittery playing in front of huge crowds all tournament (54,000 sell out tomorrow) and england actually thrived when playing in front of huge crowds at the olympics...
england are basically playing with house money.... |

So doc84's prediction can still come true. 5-4 on penalties is close. I've been watching Glasto.

My money is on England to win tonight, and I can't see why we can't go on and win the World Cup, thought Germany were quite fortunate to get a penalty late on last night, however the French should have had that the match in the bag by 1/2 time |

Not much of a match is it, they're just playing keep ball in their own area.  |

I'm here. I might move to watching it in bed soon. I only like when they do penalty shoot outs. I think football would be much improved if all the games were just that bit. 
If I ask daft questions please forgive me.

Start a petition Licky to hold the penalty shoot out at the start, fresher legs, saves time and all that. I'd sign it for yer.
Then maybe the *losers* would have more to play for. |

On a side issue, i have to say it seems a lot more sensible to hold it in what, 6?, existing stadia and have two matches per ground per day (groups stages at least) than all the ridiculous expense and waste such as Brazil, Russia and Qatar will create. |

Plastic pitches apparently. A number of high profile women/teams have complained/gone to court over it. |

QPR had a plastic pitch for years in the top divisions of the English football league. It's the same for both teams in the game playing on the same surface so one side can't claim a disadvantage. |

Watched the France vs Germany game last night & have to say, what a game!!
Fair play to England, apart from one bad mistake, they're playing really well & making their male counterparts look like, well, just wooses.
Also, when they score a goal they actually show their delight, unlike their male counterparts................... Sturridge comes to mind.

Mens England team have been mind numbingly boring to watch in recent times. At least the women's team has a bit of passion and fight in them, severely lacking from the men. |

I stayed up and watched it again.
Again he tinkered and they won, well done.
again I thought it was shit but will watch Wednesdays game providing its not too late.
England first goal - Came from a Canada mistake.
Englands second goal - Came from a Canada mistake.
Canada's goal came from an England mistake.
Simple things like taking a throw in and it bounces off your team mates shin straight back out again.
Im enjoying the 'lets just get on with it' attitude, I think the quality is poor (in general).
Good luck England |

To be fair I can't think of many goals scored where you couldn't say there was a mistake from the opposition somewhere if you were looking for it. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
You didnt have to look for the mistakes in all three goals, they were blatant mistakes.
It happens all too frequent in the mens game too, but not as much at the highest level (which is what a WC is).
The 35 yarder in the last game was skill and so was FranK irby;s in the first game.
I think back to Englands first game vs France, they just kept giving the ball away.
They have improved since then and I wouldnt watch it if I didnt enjoy it.
I have been hugely impressed with the amount of effort shown, one example being the 'one up front' saturday night (Taylor).
She ran and ran all night always trying to available but stood little chance with 2 defenders on her straight away.

englands 1st goal... yes... absolute mistake.. but jodie taylor was still 40 yards out and have a shed load to do
2nd goal... thats harsh to call that a mistake from the free kick... i still think thats a cracking head from lucy bronze...
canada's goal... again we have seen that from keepers since time started!!! |

Of course the second goal was intended but it didnt come off the true spot on her forehead it looped, then the goalie flapped at it.
Im the same as anyone else behind England though, I'll take a win regardless of how the goals go in.
My point is, lets just calm down, I dont think its hardly setting the world alight/most of what I have seen I would compare to League 2/Conference.
I don't buy the paper/s but from what I have seen there hasnt been any Flags to print out and stick in the window. They should get behind the team more, Im glad many big names in the game have via twitter. |

what people have got to realise is that the quality is at best poor up against mens football.
But in Womens terms they are the best around.
It needs the PC mob to stop making it out to be something its not.
Sit back and enjoy for what it is ,not what they are making it out to be.

I think thats what Im trying to say and is a fair point.
I hope more than anything it has the impact on this sport that London 2012 had on so may other sports.
I coach female sport and fully understand the importance of the national team making an impact at grass roots, wether that be real or artificial |

I have been impressed with the Ladies performance, but do not compaire it too much with the male game, there is a speed and stamina issue, but its on a level field and the Lionesse's are doining very well, Lets hope the England/Germany final does not end up with penalties!! |

Saying the quality is poor because of mistakes is just wrong, speak to Alan Hansen and he will point out every mistake a defence makes even ones that don't result in a goal |

"Saying the quality is poor because of mistakes is just wrong, speak to Alan Hansen and he will point out every mistake a defence makes even ones that don't result in a goal "
No its not.
For eg as I mention above.
This happened Saturday night:
England have a throw in, (in this case she didnt knick 20 yards), England player throws it in, team mate controls its with her shin and it goes straight out.
Thats a mistake. Thats poor quality. Please remember its is just an example.
The game and others have been littered with basic schoolboy/girl mistakes.
My only excuse I could give is the playing surface, its un natural and in consistent some of the time. |

Yeah I do, that womans eye brows are a bit off putting but I like how they dont wear rose tinted glasses and are just honest.
I can't stand the commentator Sue Smith though, however, she's saying less and less as each game goes on which is good. |

Apologies just thinking of the ultra example of a mistake finder
I do however agree that to a degree the standard is lower but that's logical considering there are fewer players in the woman's game as a whole it's similar to the American League where 'soccer' isn't the main sport so potentially talented players never try the game so never realise they are good and also since you only really improve by playing over and above yourself/being pushed I think some in the women's game haven't become as good as they could be |
