FIFA Women's World Cup 2023

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I am going to jinx one of these teams and suggest that the game is on its way to penalties.

I've probably got Australia as narrow favourites against us in the 2nd semi, but IF we manage to win, what would we prefer to face in the final?

Being passed to death by Spain and having to play on the counter? Or having to face Swedish setpieces? That's not to say Sweden aren't just a good all-round team, but they've got a lot of height and good deliveries.

I think I'd rather play Sweden, but not by much. Still got to get there first anyway!

Why are the 10 outfield players for Sweden blondes but the keeper has black hair?

spain was the better side in the first half. but since i said that probably sweden will win. but now since i said that, spain is gonna win... :))

Good question, my wife and daughters all have lovely long hair and yet I'm bald, weird isn't it? I can't understand it...

So the others will recognise her? Or maybe to confuse the opposition...oh that must be our goalkeeper as Sweden only has blondes!! ;-)

JP rambling on about how $hit this tournament has been so far, while Spain build up and score.

Made me laugh that too, caught him on the hoof. Nice finish.

 

[blue whippet]

Equally nice finish, Swedes back level.

 

[mattcity5]

Two good finishes!

Saw that one dropping for Sweden and half expected it going over, but she controlled the finish really well.

And now there's another. First bit of questionable keeping from the Swedish keeper all tournament. Musovic just didn't quite seem ready for it.
