If they can go up a couple of years we have a real shot at winning Gets a lot of stick but standard of skill in that game looked pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydney_saint Posted 12 August, 2023 Share Posted 12 August, 2023 (edited) What a match! Absolutely buzzing after that! Fantastic atmosphere, and two teams pushing each other. I know some will say there were no goals, but was still a very entertaining game. Some really good penalties in there as well. Fowlers pen was stunning Edited 12 August, 2023 by sydney_saint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowlers pen was stunning I'm waiting for a train at nearby Roma St after seeing the game with wife and youngest daughter. An extraordinary game which pulsated with drama and unending noise from the 50k crowd. Women's Football is here to stay - it's mainstream and attracting crowds, media networks and advertising dollars. As a Father of four daughters its wonderful to watch Women's sport - particularly Football and Cricket establish itself as genuinely entertaining and a symbol of greater recognition, respect and participation for girls and Women's sport. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_D Posted 12 August, 2023 Share Posted 12 August, 2023 We haven’t been at our most dominant this tournament, a large part of that is the players we’re missing, as well as how well other teams have progressed, but it’s huge credit to our resilience under Wiegman that we keep finding a way to win. Caicedo is some player for Colombia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched a tonne of games with mates and we praise when it is due, and criticise errors. Like we do every football match. It's when someone pops up the sole purpose of criticising it, you are gonna get called up with it. So stop being a baby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
