    Not even sure why that was reviewed if the offside was given.

        They show these lines and I still can't see the offside.

          In case the offside call was wrong. If it was, it would have been negated and they would have given the penalty.

          The replay they have just shown says it was very, very tight. Like an outstretched arm, only.

            Rather like that, yes, but smaller. The unicorn sits in the grass, and is filled with ankle-deep ice-cold water. From nose to tail it measures 1.90 meter.

              With the cooling break and the VAR there is going to be a fair amount of stoppage time. Will Sweden's luck hold?

                6 minutes. Germany to get one more chance, I reckon...

                  6 minutes of added time. C'mon Germany. I could watch another half an hour of this

                    Was that it? Lovely move, but headed over.

                      Sweden now corner-flagging.

                        Aslani, who is a yellow card away from missing the Semi, screams at the Assistant for giving a goal-kick instead of a corner. Dozy, but she got away with it.

                          All over! Well done Sweden. First team of the knockout to win after trailing.

                            The Sweden manager looks the most Scandinavian of all even though his team is almost entirely tall and blonde.

                              I think she's great. Silky skills and sharp edges. Probably my favourite player I'd not heard of before the world cup.

                                She is a brilliant player. And vital for Sweden. Their tactics today did rather bypass her, though. Possibly the least influential of any of her performances in this tournament.

                                  The replays of the Swedish winner shows it probably was a foul. Glas stood on Magull's foot. And the referee (?Frappert) put the whistle to her lips so was clearly considering giving it. But then changed her mind. However, there was too long from that to the goal for complaints to be really justified.

                                  Lindahl was much less solid than in other games. But got away with it.

                                      Dead cert, I'd think

                                        I thought you couldn't be offside with a part of the body that can't play the ball? (i.e. arms and hands)

                                          From Law 11 (on the FA website)

                                          "The hands and arms of all players, including the goalkeepers, are not considered."

                                            I think Steinhaus is injured.

                                            My guess is that it will be Umpierrez for the final.
