QF1: Norway v England

[Kevin S]

Yes. Very nice time to add the second.

[Snake Plissken]

That was a peach of a passing move. Thought the finish was offside but she timed it perfectly.

[Mumpo]

Whats with that Dambusters goggle shit?

[Jah Womble]

Ellen White on the spot yet again. Clearly onside.

[Kevin S]

It's a tribute to Anthony Modeste, would you believe.

[Simon G]

I'm struggling to understand how that's not a penalty under the idiotic modern handball laws.

The new rules:

However, the following will not usually be a free-kick unless they are one of the above situations:

• the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/near

Like Rob, I didn't even let a cheer out because I assumed the second goal was offside - then it wasn't even close. This is what VAR has done to me.

[Bizarre Löw Triangle]

England play football almost as well as they dismiss concerns about racist victimisation fair play.

[Amor de Cosmos]

Then it begs the question of why FIFA don't appoint sensible referees more often

It's possible some officials, realising what a pig's ear VAR is, have decided to use their own discretion instead and bugger the consequences

[Belhaven]

I only got to watch the last 15 minutes of the first half, but from what I saw England seem by far the better side here. I really cannot see how Norway can get back in this game.

[RobW]

That should be 2-1.They're so hesitant, Norway.

[longeared]

"Should be an equaliser" says Pearce, making me wonder if this is some form of new FIFA directive.

[Kevin S]

That should be 2-1.They're so hesitant, Norway.

Bright looked all at sea there too.

[Kevin S]

Good sub, this. Mead will give Norway something to worry about if England counter.

[Kevin S]

PING!

[longeared]

Foot like a traction engine.

[RobW]

Soft foul, cracking finish.

[Sporting]

Screamer.

[Tony C]

Great hit by Bronze.

[delicatemoth]

She put the metal on that. Smelted it right in.

[RobW]

Now if the French authorities would be good sports and arrest that fucking band...

[Simon G]

Fantastic bullet from Bronze there - England cruising now.

[Jah Womble]

Boom, etc.

[longeared]

Fuck off waving at the cameras, Hemmingham.

[delicatemoth]

I wish that were Carlton Kirby playing for England, Norway might have a chance.

[imp]

Good luck to the Lionesses!


It would be really useful if there were a site that included all senior fixtures: Sky's app seems completely unaware of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, for example...

kicker.de has pretty much everything. It‘s German, of course, but it‘s just football results. You can find your way around pretty easily.
