Struggling to find her best? Carrying injuries? Hasn't regained her form after an ACL injury that sidelined her for 9 months.
Harry Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Also dumb that we can predict it 3 mins before it happens
Danny Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 That’s a shame. Didnt think it was a pen at first cos of how close her hand is to her side but she clearly leans her shoulder into it
Harry Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Giving Spain a goal for such a minor incidental infraction is shit. Need more indirect free kicks and less penalties
Carnivore Chris Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 In fact, just looked it up now and it looks like she's been struggling with injuries for a while. Pen saved. Game on!
Administrator Stan Posted August 20, 2023 Author Administrator Posted August 20, 2023 Saved by Earps!!!
Rick Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Penalty saved! Thankfully, cause that would have killed the game.
Whiskey Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 That is a garbage penalty, absolutely bottled it. Great goalkeeping though, fair play. Could be a turning point this, Spain seen mentally fragile as it is.

Shame really. She is genuine class and players like her are the ones that are taking the women's game to the next level.
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted August 20, 2023 Subscriber Posted August 20, 2023 Earps and the team did their homework for that penalty. You could see on the graphic that the Spain player often shot to the bottom right

Danny Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Problem is we can’t do anything with the ball, Spain still superior on it and in defence

Just before the penalty we had a decent spell. Toone looks tired. Needs James and Kelly to keep making an impact.
Rick Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 England so crap on the ball compared to Spain, they just aren’t doing anything in possession.
Harry Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 I'm surprised England haven't been more interested in winning set pieces given the height advantage they have
Administrator Stan Posted August 20, 2023 Author Administrator Posted August 20, 2023 Could be about 12+ minutes stoppage time...
Administrator Stan Posted August 20, 2023 Author Administrator Posted August 20, 2023 Ref is losing it.
Administrator Stan Posted August 20, 2023 Author Administrator Posted August 20, 2023 Spain will go into ultra time-wasting mode now.
Rick Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Ref just bottled a second yellow for the Spanish player kicking the ball away.
