UEFA Women's Euros | England win final on penalties!

[born2bblu]

I thought this deserves a thread on its own. My guess, it will become more exciting in the knockout stage.

Host: Switzerland
Founded: 1982
Current champions: England (1st title)
Most successful team(s): Germany (8 titles)
Number of teams: 16 (finals); 52 (qualifiers)

Opener was Finland (1) vs. Iceland (0). Next game, in half an hour from now, is Switzerland vs. Norway.

See the hotel the English team are staying in? Very nice Airbnb, it isn't!

Looks a pretty full stadium for the host nation's opening game.

Norwegian national anthem been given the John Lewis treatment, it'll probably be #1 in a few weeks.

It's a fair while until Christmas yet!

Deserved lead for the Swiss.

No idea who is on co comms, but they really are waffling on and talking crap, for the most part.

Gets earlier every year though!

1-1 now. Laughable keeping by the Swiss keeper there, she was nowhere near claiming that cross.

Free run at it for Hegerberg though. Defending not up to much either.

Cracking opening goal of the tournament.

& now gets worse for the Home team with an OG.

The ex-raggy on comms just can't seem to help herself. New City signing's energy levels have dropped according to her.

 

[JRockBlues]

Pretty clear handball.

What on earth was she thinking about?

 

[johnny crossan]

That penalty was awesome but eh up what's this...Swiss are lovin it ...not anymore!

 

[jimharri]

Channeling her inner City there.


That's not a penalty.

 

[JRockBlues]

Gotta be overturned that one surely

 

[jimharri]

Correct decision.

 

[jimharri]

Saying she was offside. That's handy!
