world Cup semi final this evening

[ALG01]

This game has the makings of a cracker.
I am expecting USA to come out all guns blazing and if we keep them out fro 15 minutes then the tide will turn.
Level at half time
second half more cagey but last 15 tactics will fly out the window, the game will open up, chances galore and it will be a function of who has the more clinical forwards. I am hoping jodie taylor will come off the bench late on and prove what a class act she is as USA hearts are broken with a thrilling last minute winner for us.

I'm expecting the Americans to turn up late  :005:

[Lyle from Hangeland]

I'm American. I am kind of rooting for England though.

[AnOldBrownie]

I'm American. I am kind of rooting for England though.

Not even "kind of" for me.

The USA women are great.   But they've already won it.    They've won it the most.

I'm rooting for the lady Lioness' because English football is why I've grown to love 'soccer'.   Plus I've always had a soft spot for the UK  (Commodore computers, Benny Hill, CBS Film Festival)

If the US win I'll have a smile on my face and I'll be proud of my country's team.

If England win I'll flip the F... out and be super happy.

Oh..and Demi Stokes and Nikita Parris are my second and third favorite female players (they remind me of my all time favorite athelete...my daughter).

I will be watching it.I just want it to be played in the proper manner & at the end swap shirts .

Would that/could that possibly also include Fawlty Towers?

[Neil D]

One day they may even find more than just three token Southerners to bulk up the squad. 

[grandad]

USA dominating. We are defending too narrow. They are killing us on the wings.

[grandad]

Out of nothing we are level.

[HobGoblin]

Top Quality passes by England there for that equalizer.

[Art Vandelay]

Always impressed by our keeper, sign her up.

[grandad]

Our CB was on the wrong side of Morgan. Where have they learned that from?

[Nero]

a team in white with defensive frailties where have I seen that before 

[KJS]

Thought I'd give it a watch tonight but it's garbage!!

[Penfold]

I will be watching it.I just want it to be played in the proper manner & at the end swap shirts .

A la the classic Not the Nine O'clock News sketch...

[Steeeeeeeeeed]

The hype on the BBC was ridiculous, they had it as the main story on the 6 o'clock news, and had a good long section on it. I almost gagged when they said it was "England's first chance of a major final since 1966...whatever gender"

I have it on in the background, and the yanks have some skillfull forwards, but generally it is poor.

[SP]

Some of them are spending more time hitting the deck than Jack Grealish.

[grandad]

Need to get Parris on the ball more. She is a skillful livewire.

[grandad]

Sloppy passing now. Some are out on their feet. USA stronger & fitter.

[grandad]

Damn VAR.
