And both Arsenal.

LadyShimura · 22/07/2025 22:36

Is that the manager storming off?

burblish · 22/07/2025 22:37

Can England sort out the final in 90 mins. Feels like an endurance race.

burblish · 22/07/2025 22:40

I felt really sorry for Sweden after the QF but I'm afraid I can't feel sorry for Italy - their time wasting was beyond ridiculous until, basically, the 119th minute.

DuncinToffee · 22/07/2025 22:41

Wiegman has to change her starting team, we can't hope to get lucky again.

Agreed. The theatrics went against them in the end.

If SW delays her subs in the final Spain will be out of sight

Yes, but she won't.

Don't worry, she will and we will probably lose as we've already used up all our luck.

LadyShimura · 22/07/2025 22:45

Hopefully, SW will start with Kelly and Agyemang.

Cant mess around against Spain. They are playing on top form atm.

I doubt that she will.

We can have hope, even if it is pointless.

Now I need to eat my stress Calippo.

The mentality of this England team is crazy. So strong.

However, it’ll be Spain in the final and they’ll win by a few I think. Kelly needs to start from an English POV, though I think the manager prefers her as an impact sub (which she sure is, to be fair).

Yes, I'm hoping too. At least she didn't play Jess Carter, so at least we know that she can make changes.

Fortunately yes. It'll be back for Sunday though.

kiterunning · 22/07/2025 22:58

We’ve had to play two lots of unnecessary extra time and that’s bound to be taking a toll.
Time to change the line up and take the game to Spain/Germany.

Not really made it easy on themselves. England have the skill to put the games to bed in 90 mins, but seem to thrive on the drama of extra time.

Rewis · 22/07/2025 23:03

I know SW won't make changes. BUT im happy to have Kelly amd Agyemang as super subs but we need to bring them on earlier. You can't change the game in 15min when others are time wasting. LJ shouldn't start, she's not fit enough. We need people in the box. I'm always yelling to my team "into the box" so I feel like england should listen to me as well. World class players were totally invisble. Also can we stop with rhe long range hail mary shots and juat doable sensible pass and a tap in past the goalie. Well done on the spot at the final, but this was one of those "be a gracious" winner moments, cause it was a damn lucky break.

Italy wanted it more. They just didn't have the player material to bring it. But they wanted it. They were passionate.

Also, I'm not even English so I'm not sure who this we are 😅

burblish · 22/07/2025 23:09

Oooh, watching the replays now of Agyemang's goal - I didn't appreciate how technically good it was (think it went through both a defender and the keeper's legs, too). Wonderful composure and placement under pressure in a packed box. Superb!
