Well after the womens Rugby sevens blew it against Fiji, this was on the cards.
We're playing like Portugal at Euro 16, lucky to escape the group phase due to the BS 3rd placed teams make the next round, then turn it around in the knockout.

That was the first time I’ve seen Ellen White play and took all of 5 minutes to dislike her.

A Poms missing a pen and a headed goal by someone surnamed Kennedy. This match really did have it all.

Sweden just defeated Japan 3-1
So Sweden V Australia in one Semi-Final!
Canada defeated Brazil on penalties earlier they'll play either USA or Netherlands, currently USA are winning 2-1 at HT

She's from Scotland so how can you call her a Pom? I wouldn't recommend going up to a scot and call them a pom

Who crossed the ball into the box for Kerr's header for the 4th goal? I was watching with the sound turned off.

Tough ask but the only way we get gold is if we can beat them and the US.

How are the English press taking this?
RE-BBC Football , a lot better than they normally are . Had comments for a while but have shut it down . Probably more surprised than angry IMO

A team comprised of three countries (no Northern Ireland player made the squad) couldn't beat the Matildas. Still have questions over Guatavsson's tactics, as I don't think Carpenter at centre half is the right play, and I think he was too slow to bring on the subs but you can't argue with results. Sweden will be a tough opponent. Cruised through the group stage and are, on paper, more talented than the Matildas, but football isn't played on paper. What time is kick off on Sunday?

Agree - would much rather see a traditional back 4 with Carpenter allowed to roam up field more.
The GB game was an outlier compared to the other top teams. I watched the US-Netherlands match and it's a class above in terms of passing, first touch, positioning etc. Both of those would tear the Matildas apart.
Last night's game was great to watch but for me it came down to the fact that we have two world class players the GB didn't, though Hemp was brilliant.
