Why are some of the French players wearing so much makeup?

(I bet that's never been said here before)

Some of them are certainly easy on the eye. Plus good save.

They play quite rough too, don't they? I've seen about half a dozen things that would have resulted in a (completely unneeded) stretcher at the men's world cup.

Indeed. The girls are making the boys look like girls.

[vonuber]

Have to say this French team are very good.

[vonuber]

The arse into the post must've hurt.

The England women are just like the men's team, ie crap in possession and positionally poor, technically bad and no vision, always trying to hit a 40 yard pass.

Do you know, i was just going to write the same. It is startling how similar they are, the run out of ideas after passing it around the back and then hoof it forwards. Such a shame.
The French team are so much more comfortable on the ball it's unreal.

[vonuber]

Here we go, second half. On the basis of the first, I will give it France 1: 0 England.

[vonuber]

Wow that was close.

[vonuber]

A goal is most definately coming here.

[vonuber]

1:0 England!!

Didn't see it coming from that team though. Lovely bit of work.

yes - although the french keeper should've dne better maybe - keeper was off her line. Good shot though, and if you don't shoot then you won't ever score..

[vonuber]

Jeez this is close.

[vonuber]

should've scored then.

[vonuber]

Off the line!

[vonuber]

1:1!!!

[vonuber]

England look knackered - too much chasing the ball.

Actually, can someone just go copy paste comments from the mens world cup and put them in here?

[vonuber]

Looks like they are effectively down to ten men now as well.

[vonuber]

Side netting from England! So close!
