France looking a little bit unsure v Jamaica.
Quite a few missing due to injury, same as England.
Loving the French kit btw- a lighter blue than usual. The Dutch kit was much nicer as well- more peachy than the usual bright orange.

Sorry- trivial I know-I'm a bit obsessed with football strips! Love England's away strip.

HT 0-0

Quite a competitve game

I agree with you on the kits pues

I don't like the spotty Portugal shirt

@DuncinToffee
The Portuguese kit was a dotty horror!

Ooh that was so close for France.

That was a stupid foul by Shaw, second yellow and she is off

FT 0-0

Well played Jamaica especially towards the end when France piled on the pressure.

Good point for Jamaica. France will be disappointed.

The gap between the more established teams and the 'newcomers ' is definitely narrowing which should make for a great tournament.

Close-run thing for Sweden but deserved on their second half performance. I really felt for South Africa, so close to their first point. I know we've all said it before but the organisation and bravery of the socalled smaller teams is so impressive.
Very happy for the Neths - they are my international "second team".
France aren't winning anything for a while - they are missing too many important players and I don't think M. Renard is up to the task of compensating. Jamaica were obdurate, dangerous on the counterattack especially in the first half, hardworking and smart. Fully deserved their point. Can't wait for tomorrow's games now.

Tuning in for Italy - Argentina, 0-0 on 65 minutes

Italy finally break through Argentina's well organised defense, 1-0 with a great header, impact sub.

Superb cross, and a quick reaction for the header.

FT Italy 1 - 0 Argentina

Lovely celebrations

Goal for Germany after 11 minutes

Bad mistake from Morocco there.

Italy v Argentina was technically disappointing but the right result 😀

2-0 Germany great header

Second goal for Popp

3-0 Germany, 10 seconds into the second half, Morocco made a mess of that

Offside for Morocco there. Shame as that was a good bit of play.

4-0 now, again a mistake in the Moroccon defence

Morocco have made some really sloppy mistakes. Cant do that against Germany, they'll punish you for that.
