Ghana White Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Thought it was a penalty although I'm not a fan of VAR. Standards not great, get yourself a good winger who can cross and you've cracked it. Keepers and marking in the box non existent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deane koontz Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Managed to catch the last 15 minutes. Not that it matters but in the same run of play (i think) as the penalty it looked like there was a foul on a US player. VAR has got me more confused than i normally am 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted July 2, 2019 Moderators Share Posted July 2, 2019 Well, it's not football Comparisons with mens records are ridiculous Oldham's reserves would batter england Mark beavers is better on the ball than millie bight However, it's generally an honest game, they get on with it, there's some decent birds on show and steph Houghton is a top bloke That poor girl has had some shit to deal with Proper felt for her tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more, no less Fair play to them though they provided more entertainment than a lot of games that I saw last season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggy Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Absolutely. Was so desperate for her to score that penalty. But in the scheme of things she’s got far more important things to be worrying about right now. Given what she’s been dealing with, her performances this tournament have been all the more impressive. Anyone who’s sceptical about the women’s game should have seen my daughter this evening. Regardless of the quality, she cared about what happened in that match 1000 times more than any men’s match she has seen. And there will be 1000s of girls taking up football thanks to this World Cup which is a brillIant thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggy Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Just think it’s a shame that some people only ever look for the negative in everything. Lots of people have taken a lot of pleasure from this World Cup. They’re not watching it thinking that these are the best players the world has ever seen. If you follow some people’s logic we should all give up watching Bolton and switch to following City or Liverpool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I've enjoyed the games, but somebody was pointing out the difference in quality. There is one. It's a fact. Doesn't alter the fact it was a decent spectacle, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
