I was similar to you tuffers before I gave it a try - now I'm struggling to understand why I thought that way.

Give it a go Sunday, you might surprise yourself.

I think that, in order to complete the beautiful historical symmetry of this story, Germany will win by scoring a late goal that may not have crossed the line.

Maybe not 2-1 to England but it's Germany so you can never write them off .

A masterclass in how to see a game out, perfect tactics from the manager and Earps in goal was rock solid. They've done the country proud

It won't surprise anyone to know that I absolutely loved watching that and seeing the Germans get increasingly frustrated with it :D

Wish I'd had a ticket to the final too. The atmosphere was fantastic with that sell out crowd and the win. What a really enjoyable evening. All of you superior beings missed a treat.

One thing I noticed was, that for quite a long time after the second half commenced, there were a hell of a lot of empty seats. The sporting authorities really ought to do more to cater for women's urgent facilities. It's bad enough at Brisbane Rd half time. Imagine what it would be like with a predominately women crowd.

Friend or faux wrote: Wed Jul 27, 2022 1:43 pm The one thing that the somewhat misogynistic Orient fans have missed, is the extremely high proportion of women supporters of this female game. Whilst English men invented the rules of this sport, I'm afraid they don't hold monopoly rights. You get a fair proportion of women at the the male genre. But considering the high degree of commercialisation, it is not very big. Could it be the drunken, loud-mouthed, foul mouthed, often violent male supporters who put them off. Then there are some of the players of the same ilk. Maybe if you don't like the female version of the sport you are better off sticking to the more "sophisticated brand ".
Yep you didn't see none of the nonsense that went on with the "fans" before the men's euro final this weekend. I much rather take my children to a high profile woman's game than a men's one. I would certainly feel safe with them.

Great performance but would have been nice to see more diversity in the starting 11.
