    I've really enjoyed this tournament but there's absolutely no chance. I'm not slagging off the technical aspects but the physical differences between men and women represent an insurmountable hurdle.

    Lets not dilute the outstanding skills of the England Women Footballers by comparing them to men !

    Please stop saying this every time we play :D
    This 100%

    We don't do it in any other professional sport. There's a reason there's separate categories

    That backheel nutmeg on the keeper from Russo was ridiculous

    Take a bow Alessia Russo. That's the best back heeler I've seen since John Hendrie at home to Sheff Utd in 97.

    Agreed, 100%

    It takes away from the achievements of a very talented group of players.

    Brilliant 30 minutes from England after a dodgy start. Really enjoying it.

    Going on about the Swedish women tails between their legs on commentary :eek:

    The Swedish keeper should have saved all but the Mead goal. She's had a bad evening.

    First she couldn't do much about. Second was a weak header she seemed to watch go in. Third she gets nutmegged with a back heel. Fourth she parried into her own net.

    Not her greatest evening.

    I had the Sky one, but also had one at William Hill for England to win, Mead to score and over 2 goals in the game. 8/1

    I only had 50p on each bet, but still. :D

    Really enjoyed watching England play tonight. There was some lovely attacking play. A few sloppy errors from both sides and some atrocious goalkeeping. The standard has shot up in the last few years though.

    My son was corrected at a Wakefield Ladies match last season for shouting "Megs!"

    Apparently, it's "Jacks" in a women's match. It took me a minute but I like it.
