therealhantsram Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 I take back everything 8 said about Spain 😂 Japan v Spain game of the tournament so far. Japan showing exactly how to play against a tika taka style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardyjim Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Is anyone watching today's game? At the risk of poking the bear, this ref is awful. Also, Lauren James. Sign her up PW 😉 therealhantsram, Comrade 86 and angieram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best teams do seem to start slowly and then grow into the tournament. Let’s hope that’s the case here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different gravy, this lass. Think the boss was quite shrewd in her handling of her, as I don't think she was even selected for the squad at the Euros. Seems to have lit a fire though (the desired effect?), as she's not looked back ever since. A star on the rise, methinks. angieram, sage, Alph and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reece James sister for anyone who didn't know. All of her goals (including the disallowed one) were absolute crackers. And Daley's at the end. If the men's team had scored goals with finishing technique that good we'd have a dozen pages of discussion about it!

Guest Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Just caught the highlights of the China game. The way at least a couple of the goals were taken was immense - some top class technique on display. I Hope, to catch some more of he games, I was in France (with no UK TV) for the last couple of weeks, and was at work today… Their keeper had a mare!

Van der MoodHoover Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Plenty of drama and great stories in the group stages. At least as many stories as a men's world cup so it's at least as compelling viewing for me. The joy on the Moroccan players faces was superb. I wasn't gloating because it was Germany, but it's always good to see new names coming through. England v Jamaica could be v interesting and a banana skin....

RadioactiveWaste Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Looking forward to the knockout stages and the group stage was far more interesting and entertaining than I thought it would be. Van der MoodHoover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
