Tommy 9,755 Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Wow, really enjoyable game. Could have won this by an even higher margin, as they hit the woodwork 3-4 times. Fantastic performance to start into the tournament, they were relentless! I knew Alexander Popp would score when she was subbed on, and in the end she did score the 4-0! Lina Magull was the player of the match for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patoriku66 7 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Wow. I was disappointed by the lack of discussion here. I guess that's the uphill battle the Women's tournaments have to face. Wouldn't it it be ironic if England win this and we flop in the WC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 9,755 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Spain's going to be a tough opponent tonight. Lea Schüller out with Covid too. Looking forward to the match though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 9,755 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Huge result! Spain was all possession and fancy passing with no real effectiveness. Our goalkeeper Merle Frohms had to make one crucial save, the rest was harmless. Plus Spain should have had a red card as their defender clearly pulled Alexandra Popp's shirt when she was through on goal. Fantastic defending, and clinical finishing. Granted Spain's keeper really gifted us the 1-0. I didn't expect this result against Spain at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scub 1 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 as a northern ireland fan I watched the women's European match tonight and I can honestly say I've watched better under 16's games in a local league.... just awful. I'm not being sexist or mysogenist, the standard was simply terrible. am I alone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy 9,755 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Yesssssssssss! Really tough game. A bit lucky that Austria hit the woodwork three times (2 posts, 1 crossbar), but we hit the crossbar once as well. All in all a great performance again, with some shaky moments Lena Oberdorf and Klara Bühl were the best players on the pitch for me, even though the latter missed a sitter before she was substituted. Oh and Alex Popp's fourth goal in the fourth game. And a cheeky one this time as well. She blocked a pass from Austria's keeper that then went in. 2 hours ago, Michael said: Are you feeling confident that you will beat your southern neighbours this evening? I was yes, but in the end it was a lot tougher than I hoped for. Had sweaty palms throughout the match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I thought the Germans were very efficient and they look like they can seriously win the whole competition. They really impressed me in the group stages. I have seen several games in these Euros and I have watched all of the knockout games so far. But I haven't watched Sweden or Belgium, the two competitors in today's quarter final before. It seems like Sweden are the heavy favourite in todays game, are they a much better team than Belgium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waylander 130 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I suspect the French will win tonight yet the Netherlands are also a good team, so should be a decent match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 9,755 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 So we will face France who beat the Netherlands. Luckily they needed extra time, so hopefully they'll be a bit tired against us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily they needed extra time, so hopefully they'll be a bit tired against us. My money is on the Germans to beat the French. As you said, they will probably be tired from their long match against the Netherlands and will have had fewer days rest when they meet the Germans. The German team seem to be very efficient as well, which shouldn't be surprising really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy 9,755 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 I hope Alexandra Popp wins the top goalscorer award. She's 31, plays for the national team since 2010, and this is only her first Euro because she was always very unlucky with injuries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
