Belgium are the number 1 ranked side in males international footy, and they are just as shit

Yeah, nearly.

Harry Kane got a penalty from an off side position against Arsenal this season and one against us the year before and every former ref with a pulse were falling over themselves to justify them and claim they were correct decisions.

 

In tonight's game we had 4 VAR (seemingly very well trained) officials looking at it for for 2 minutes and they appeared to be unaware of the Harry Kane rule.

Sat in the garden all afternoon having a BBQ and copious amounts of ale with a load of Germans/Russians. The Germans weren't impressed with that defeat, despite pretending women's football was shit. Oh I, that's why you were all going on about who you'd be meeting in the final.

How many different types of wurst did you do?

I had Normal ones and those with Chilli and cheese in them. Other people brought other types. I actually only had one Bratwurst and then dug into a few lamb steaks. Sun plus beer and vodka is starting to take its toll though, gonna be a pain cleaning the grill in the morning.

The USA team have that sense of toughness about them that’ll likely be too much for England.

They are a team of athletes as Scott said on the BBC last night, but they ally that with skill and nous.

I get the feeling ours are happy to be in the semi, without really believing they can win it, although they’ve improved with each game. Have to really improve defensively against the US.

Winner of the game wins the tournament I think.

The US captain has been winding Trump up, by saying she would turn down any invitation to the White House as long as that shower of homophobic pricks are there.

If I have understood the headline correctly, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain has invited her to the House of Representatives.

Phil Neville can't even spell etiquette.

Like I said,I have barely watched this tournament but it could hardly be much worse than the AFCON as that has been largely dire.

Distinct Northern flavour to this squad.

England are/is being built up like nobody’s business by the media for tonight’s game...’the first senior England team to reach a final since 1966....if they can beat the USA. I might be eating one of Babb’s hats later on but I see nothing other than a straightforward win for the Americans here

[moof]

Don’t know if it’ll be straightforward, Cath, but US are definitely favourites. A team of fighters and winners. I’m really looking forward to it

I said the same about Venus Williams last night, so whadda I know

[Elite]

Didn't even know they'd made the final. Fair play and hopefully they can go on and win it.

Alex Morgan FC > England FC

[TheHowieLama]

Alex Morgan has been a tad underwhelming so far

[Dave D]

Is Phil getting a knighthood for reaching this stage of the competition?

 

Equality and all that

The tv audience for the quarter final was more than for the men's FA Cup final.

Not surprising really as it was always going to be much closer than a Harlem Globetrotters exhibition match.

[J-V]

Bright's a clone of Maguire.

[El Rojo]

That fucking brass band again. The match should just be awarded to the US because of them.
