Life is **** and so was this

Spain are a lot better tbf. Just a shame it wasn't a more entertaining second half with any actual football played.

Haha I've been entertained but in a hot mess sort of way, this has disintegrated as a football game

Fun final. Spain really should have won by plenty but it staying 1-0 made for a much messier, more entertaining affair

Commiserations England

Eh, Spain deserved it more. Not a pretty game.

 

[morgieb]

Spain deserved the win really. Were well better. **** that brand of "football" sucks though. Is there a way to clamp down on blatant timewasting?

Gratz Spain, deserved it on the day.

Great tournament tbh, look forward to the next one.

Spain outplayed us but the ref just sat by and let them ruin the 2nd half.

 

[Meridio]

Bonmati for player of the match and tournament imo, fantastic player.

Crazy to think Spain got pumped by Japan in the group stage

 

[Himannv]

Spain were so much better and were unfortunate to not score more. Batlle had a great game in the second half.

 

[Pothas]

Was a very English defeat against a superior technical side really.

 

[Burgey]

The era of England not winning anything in any sport continues. It’s magnificent. Long may it continue.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Gee that no.6 for Spain is good...he says, stating the obvious.

 

[Burgey]

It's astonishing to think how many players they're missing too, given the dispute with their manager. Ah well, we can't win them all.

M8, I’ve got some bad news about 2023.

Japan were the real winners you say

Yep, like the men's we again lack a player that can open up a tight match at the back end of a tournament.

Spain double youth champions - think they might be dominating the game like the men did 15 years ago

Yeah, I guess it's 12 months since the Lionesses won anything of note now.

Maybe the referees should be empowered to give yellow cards for thst sort of thing.

Not that it changed the result today.

Adding on every second that’s wasted helps a lot. It still breaks up the flow of the game but the refs can’t really complain about that when they’re taking 5 minutes over a straightforward VAR decision.
