The best two teams very clearly played last night.

Totally agree with the comment at the end, if it does carry on like this. I thought VAR was supposed to be for clear and obvious decisions, not somebody’s little toenail may or may not be offside after 5 mins of reviews.
Last nights goal that was chalked off and the one that Englands men scored against Holland were so close that you couldn’t possibly tell from the camera angles used, yet they chose to rule them out.
Rags and Dippers not even having TV screens to watch the replays on is an absolute disgrace, they should be made to add them to their grounds or forfeit points for each game played without it.
Thought the ladies were very unlucky last night, the disallowed goal and the length of time to get the penalty decision obviously didn’t help the taker, and the USA just played that bit more canny as the ref gave them everything, I thought at one point one of the English girls was gonna give the ref a right mouthful for picky or wrong decisions.

Didn't Nikki Parris get booked for similar?

Most of the posts are probably about VaR though.

Much better quality in yesterdays match.

Utter travesty that one of these is going to be in the final. US should deck either by five or more.

yep as I said England are the second best team in the comp - the USA ladies must be pissing themselves tonight. An extra days rest and facing one of these two who have done ET ( At least ) won't be a Thai rout but I can see a 4 or 5 nil win if they don't bottle it for some reason.

Aren't Holland the European champions?

I think France were the 2nd best team. England have been a bit hit or miss. Good in some games, not so much in others. Holland as European champions are presumably usually decent, although they don't look great this evening.
