I know this is the French, but still a good tweet.

Come on England!

Perhaps not as strong as we were for the Euros, but still in with a good shout.

The Aussies beat England ladies in a friendly not too long ago. The first (maybe only?) team to beat us since the manager took the job.

Hope it's not an omen. 

Both Spain and Sweden are ranked higher than England so I guess it's a good draw as the Sheilas are ranked marginally lower.

Psychology dudes will know if that means owt.

Don't need to go that deep. Some blokes prefer Bovril.

Yuk.

Still shuddering from the coffee I bought at the ground a few years back. It was chuffing bovril. Gave it away.

Whilst I love a drop of fine gravy with a meal, "beef tea" is purely rank.

Bovril is my favoured hangover drink. I buy the plastic pots (just add water) to remind me of the Burnden Park days.

In sport, over the years, the Aussies have had the edge on us more than we have had over them. But they just fucking love beating us. No matter what sport. They are more obsessed than the Scotch. That said it will be very sweet indeed if we do them in their own backyard tomorrow when all the country are watching them. I'm actually quite looking forward to this match.

Pray for @bolty58

He might be on their side @Underpants, as he plays that walking football for Australia doesn't he?

He's in a "no lose" situation in this instance 

Won't be able to watch it (not all anyway).

Was hoping to, but got to watch a man cut a hedge with a tractor and flail.

Wireless it is. 

England are a better side but doesn't matter. Always remember the rugby in 2003, we murdered them and it still took a last minute DG to win.

Sorry but fearing I'm not gonna enjoy the next week.

We’ll win. Easily.

Proper tight games all through this cup, shows how much the women's game has come on.

We will not win easily.

2 1 either way

I think we may have too many starters missing

0-0 extra time and pens for me.

I wish you'll be right!

One thing I can't see, it being easy whoever progresses. 

 

Two outrageous strikes in the game and a well battled finish, been an entertaining enough game.

I've definitely needed to switch to watching with a very different mentality to get to an enjoyment level, but since I have I really do enjoy the football England try to play and some impressive players for the level. 

3 -1

Loving it - especially as the Sheilas missed a couple of sitters

Get in girls

Top quality from Hemp and Russo there 👏

Some cracking goals 

Commentator is bloody annoying though

That was a great match, and always nice shutting the Aussies up. 

Hemp played very well. Always great to beat Australia👍
