FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 **spoilers** [20th July - 20th August 2023]

James' ban upgraded to two games. Rightly so tbh.

Apparently she didn't mean to do it. Lovely girl. Wouldn't say boo to a goose.

I'm sure she is a lovely girl but she 100% meant to do that in the heat of the moment.

 

[HangTime]

Rightly so would have been a 3 match ban surely, but as I predicted above they don't want one of the stars of the tournament from one of the favourite teams with probably one of the biggest fan bases / sponsorship markets missing in the final should England get that far.

Glad Japan didn't score, that was a joke giving a penalty for that dive.

E: Sweden been a lot more impressive today.

E: E: Except for that shocking defending lol

 

[explicit4u]

Sweden good for the win but sad to see Japan go out, they've been my favourite team to watch, by far the most entertaining.

Does mean a new name on the trophy!

I hope Aus wipe the floor with France. Already French players rolling about like they've been shot.

 

[bingham67]

Australia should be a goal up there open goal fair play with the block though.

 

[Shamikebab]

Damn these are much better penalties than the other two games I've watched. Both takers and goalkeepers seem pretty good.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Well that was dramatic!

 

[Shamikebab]

Great shootout, had everything. Even the misses were pretty close calls, several hit the woodwork. Highlight was definitely the save, retake, save or the short hair French player having a meltdown on the sideline every time one of her teammates missed.

 

[cu3ed]

Random question...but who ones the TV right etc?...BBC keeps talking about the games but they dont seem to be able to even show a small big of footage from the game.

 

[Psycho Ned]

ITV and BBC sharing the tv rights for this tournament.

Think ITV have had 3 of the 4 QF (including Englands game) but BBC have both Semis.

 

[bingham67]

Awesome shootout thought Aussies deserved to win, shame Aussie keeper missed to win it would have been a good ending. She a great shot stopper though now on to England.

 

[Shamikebab]

How did that stay out!

 

[fez]

Thats a yellow. Just bodychecked here

 

[Shamikebab]

Columbia getting away with some fouls here

 

[throwaway4372]

bad ref, dangerous game

 

[Droolinggimp]

This Columbia team have some good skills

 

[Merlin5]

Oh dear

 

[Shamikebab]

Don't think that was intended lol
