*Official* Women's Euro 2022 in England

[Howe_zat]

England have scored 22 in this tournament now which is a Euros record, beating Germany's 21 in 2009 with a game to spare.

The record for a men's team at a Euros is France's 14 in 1984.

Germany and France exhausting themselves,all going to plan this tournament

 

[wpdavid]

Germany looked really strong tonight. Worryingly so, tbh.

 

[grecian]

Ahh **** it, if England are going to beat this long-running trophy drought, men and women, might as well be against the most stereotypical of adversary.

Shows the difference in just over a decade, the final we lost against Germany in 2009, was hardly mentioned, now it'll get over 10 million viewers in England alone.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

It's coming home

 

[Howe_zat]

Right, they’re off

England have never lost multiple European finals in a year before, so this is presumably a dead cert.

 

[grecian]

Looking ominous this, right times for the subs as england were getting bullied a tad.

 

[Howe_zat]

Messy game innit

Commentary is biased to the point of parody, the kind of one-eyed nonsense you'd expect to hear from the loudest git in the pub

 

[GIMH]

It’s coming home tho

 

[Howe_zat]

Ooer. 1-0 as soon as I flick tabs to have a moan

 

[grecian]

****ing hell, never write off the Germans, let's just wait for the inevitable penalties hell.

 

[Howe_zat]

This is ominous isn’t it

 

[weeman27bob]

It's usually a cliche that I hate, but it really does feel that since England scored Germany have wanted it more.

 

[Uppercut]

Germany have just looked like a far better side.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Germany have just looked like a far better side.

Yeah this, don't think the goal changed the momentum, Germany were well on top before, it came against the run of play.

 

[grecian]

Kirby has been incredibly disappointing I think, she's the one who is meant to bring the flair and the cohesion, yet she's been pretty anonymous unless she was downhill skiing.

 

[grecian]

Think we'd deffo take pens ATM, even with that almost inevitable ending. Any goal from us is going to be shockingly against the run now.

 

[weeman27bob]

There's probably been what 15-20 minutes where we've been the better team so far? The fact it's still level is almost a victory in its own right.

 

[Aritro]

I don't think the England manager realises "all-white" was just supposed to be a description of the kit and not a selection policy.

 

[Howe_zat]

Neither side came close to scoring in the first part of extra time tbh.
