Women's Football - European Championships starting Wed 6/7

[BellaAmorosa]

Anyone else excited about the women's euros? I'd love to follow the progress of the teams (especially England) with any football-supporting Mumsnetters. Thrilled that it's a home tournament, commiserations to Scotland and Wales for not making it through qualification. Huge congratulations to NI, qualifying for the very first time.

Doesn't have to be just match-related, either - comments on the background to each women's team (especially from non-British fans), and of course the kits all welcomed.

This is stressful. I said 4-0 in the work predictor competition.

Thunderclap makes me think totalitarian regime.

Sweet Caroline can gtf now as well. I used to find it quite fun at the cricket, the Blast, then football nicked it, then that betting advert, the were supposed to sing it to the Queen. Think it used in American sports first.

Counterattack

Agreed on Sweet Caroline

HT 0-0
Enjoyed it but England needs to be a bit sharper.

Fuck

Noooooooooo

Come on England!

Thought that was going to be a pen.

Great save, that was an awkward one

An ugly one as described by the commentators

Starting to feel quite nervous

Ref decisions all seem to be against us. And harsh

Well, this is depressing.

YES!

Still in it

might have taken out a Spaniard

Thank fuck!

Suddenly they were all pressing after the sub.

Brilliant

Aggh it is spelt right when I put it on my username

What did the Spanish sub goalie do?

5 extra minutes

No idea

twitter not explaining what Spanish sub goalie did, either

Spanish sun goalkeeper wasn’t happy with the decision to not award a free kick in the build up to England's equaliser

Sub not sun

They must have done a lot of objecting for yellow card
