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

[Vienna_70]

Amazing achievement but why try and go and try and tie it in with the mens teams.

It should be about the women and them alone as for folk slagging it off rather watch them than boring hyped up mens crap that we have to put up decade after decade.

People just have to accept that men’s and women’s football are two different sports.

We don’t hear comparisons between male and female tennis players, or male and female athletes, so why footballers?

It’s absolute nonsense.

True

That's a huge part of it

That's the one thing the really successful managers have in common. If you take Pep at City, Jose at Chelsea, Sir Alex at Man U...all three different managers in terms of tactics but they had a set of players at the core of the team that would do anything for them.

Spot on ....

I've not heard one person say, "I wouldn't mind seeing Tyson Fury fight a female boxer". Why people do it with football is just bizarre

Lucy Bronze's middle name should be tough (if it wasn't already).

Good luck with that, some men feel that womens football threatens mens football in some way, so have to denegrate it at every opportunity.

I watch both, I prefer the mens game, but also appreciate the skills the women have, but more importantly appreciate how far it's come in a very short time, they are 2 very different games though.

Yes that's why she was unlucky.

She was lucky they changed that rule.

Nedum is such an eloquent, measured speaker.

It’s a bloody shame that he didn’t want to do more punditry.

Why would the media loving red tops want him,the bloke talks sense unless he harps on about why Man U are shit and how they can get back then hes know chance.

Lucy Bronze just revealed she played the entire tournament with a fractured tibia !!!

This sums up that team. No matter what the problem is, they hang in there to the bitter end. Her resilience mirrors the team’s. How many times have they come from behind in this tourney, 4 is it?
Spain had twice as many shots as England and had 60% possession. No matter, they could not overcome a determined defence.
Well done ladies, just brilliant.

Time for some arrows.

Yes I said that, but with or without the rule change it was a miss, she was very unlucky that the ground gave way though, as I think she'd have scored without that.

At the top level of the game the PL i prefer the mens but the womens England game v the mens Englsnd team its the women for me.
Its not the same standard but my god its exciting and we dont have to endure over hyped shit not really giving a shit just a chance to massage there egos

Damehood secured for sure even if it wasn't already.

 

[Vienna_70]

Does that mean that men don’t stand a chance in the women’s game?. Kind of puts paid to the argument that some of the posters on here who go on with the tiring argument about women v men/ boys.

When that twat was in charge, England hardly won a game.

The Lionesses' performances and results under Wiegman, compared to him are like night and day.

 

[jimharri]

Literally bored my wife by pointing out how many players (on both teams) and in the punditry were linked to City

 

[Macca77macca]

We definitely hear comparisons between mens and womens tennis..like..a lot.

 

[Alex6691]

You're quite right

And considering the women's team would get annihilated by the U17's, it's only fair those should count

Good job they don’t play against u17s and they stick to playing their own gender, in their own sport then isn’t it

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Zzzzzzzzz

Best off just ignoring posts like that. They’re becoming an increasing minority and most are posting for attention or bait.

Wonder if the manager is?

Wonder if the manager is what?
