Has anyone been watching ?
Looking forward to the England v Germany final on Sunday and hoping the ladies can win.
I have been impressed (upto the France v Germany semi final) at the sportsmanship, skills and determination on display ... no feigning injury and death to gain an advantage.
Apparently in the early part of 20th century, ladies football was immensely popular ... much more than men's ... so much so that the F.A. banned ladies playing on their grounds and consequently the game withered and died.
Good to see Wembley with an 80,000 plus sell out crowd.

"Iβm just watching it now. My son wants to watch it to look at the (admittedly quite attractive) wimminz. Amidst much snΔ±ggering at the woeful lack of skill on display, heβs just remarked βwhat a bunch of retardsβ! "
And now heβs come out with this gem: βLike a football version of the Paralympicsβ!
