Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted June 17, 2023 Moderator Share Posted June 17, 2023 Shame that most matches are going to be in the middle of the night or early in the mornings, I'll still try to catch some of Germany's games. Genuinely excited about this though. I hope our girls can go far. The squad looks really good. Just a shame that Giulia Gwinn wasn't nominated after working very hard to recover from a ACL rupture, but I guess she just doesn't have the match practice she needs for such a tournament.

6666 1,310 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Unfortunate that Leah Williamson & Beth Mead are injured for the tournament. But at least we have Russo there rapping Arsenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 20, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 20, 2023 New Zealand beat Norway in the opening match. Now Australia plays against the big underdogs from Ireland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,385 Posted July 20, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted July 20, 2023 What a win for NZ. Delighted for them as it's a host, too. Probably their most difficult group game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 20, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 20, 2023 Australia beat Ireland 1-0, but it wasn't as easy as some people thought it would be. Ireland gave them a good fight and even had plenty of scoring opportunities towards the end of the game. Maybe Ireland should have been more brave early on.

Administrator Stan 18,385 Posted July 21, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted July 21, 2023 Took a while for Spain to break Costa Rica down, but they've scored 3 in 6 minutes. 3-0 up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that pretty bad, to be honest. Umbro would have done. When they were making England & Barcelona kits. But that's American too now. Not sure why they stick with Nike really. May aswell be trying New Balance, Castore, Asics, Canterbury, even Adidas & Puma. Apparently even the mens keeper tops are not sold via England FA store.

Reluctant Striker 134 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Thought starting Russo as striker & Kelly as winger didn't look as good as retired White & injured Mead. Personally, I would get Rachel Daly in as starting number 9. She's had a far, far better season than any other England forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,385 Posted July 22, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted July 22, 2023 Thought Russo was unlucky not to get a goal today though. Not sure why Kelly was moved to the left at half time. England struggled today and they looked a bit rusty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 23, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 23, 2023 Oh wow, I didn't know that Hervé Renard is managing France's women's team. I remember him for coaching several African men's teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 23, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 23, 2023 Jamaica gets their first ever point at a World Cup against France. France wasted a lot of chances, but Jamaica actually defended well most of the time, and even had their own counter attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 24, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 24, 2023 Decent first half, albeit with room for improvement. But luckily Popp is inevitable. Good game from Klara Bühl as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted July 24, 2023 Moderator Share Posted July 24, 2023 Very good start into the tournament. I didn't expect such a big win after the last rather unfortunate friendlies. Morocco's defence and their goalkeeper looked a bit overwhelmed, to put it mildly. But still a very good game from our women. Klara Bühl and Jule Brand impressed me the most. Also a positive sign that the players who came from the bench made an instant impact, especially Lea Schüller. Oh and we played without Lena Oberdorf and Marina Hegering. Two of the most important players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
