    No question, that's a cracking goal. It's a shame our blokes can't play as well.

    Great win. One more to go. Nice to watch a game without cheating prima-donnas.

    Belter of a goal and a great game. Might have to start going to see some of the ladies footy matches :)

    Oh come on it was a flukey goal after she missed a sitter. Great result but let's not be deluded.

    If Ronaldo had scored that everyone would be saying what a bloody genius.

    Anyhow, if we get Germany in the final this will be back in the charts...

    Love the bit where the Germans line up for the team photo at 3 mins in :smiley:

    No, they'd say it was clever and the goalie has slower reaction times than an oak tree.

    Oi, take that back about oak trees, unless you were referring to dead ones.

    No, I think she attempted to put it across the goal mouth for another player to pick up and got massively lucky.

    Definitely didn't intend to nutmeg a gormless defender and goalie, but not entirely unintended that it ended up somehow over the line.

    The Swedish goalie did a good impression of David Seaman at the end there as well.

    Or the keeper made a save with good positioning, which she followed up well with a clever piece of skill, that being totally unexpected caught the defence naturally flat footed.

    Bottom line is, we mashed the Swedes :)

    It was undoubtwdly quick thinking.

    But being rooted to the spot three times in one game isn't a good look for a keeper. She could have written a post card during the flight of the headed second, for the third looked like Hermionie said "petrificus totalus", and for the third suffered from a sudden increase in Earth's gravity.

    Great that England figured out the keeper was having a shocker, mind you.

    You're talking out of your arse or the 2nd and 3rd goals. I'll give that she was poor for the 4th though.

    I hate to point out the obvious here, but witches wouldn't be p1ss1n about with football, would they now. No, they'd be playing quidditch.

    So the allegation of using witchcraft to win is completely unfounded.

    Really didn't think they would do it when Germany equalised, and they ran down the clock brilliantly.

    Keegan? Gascoigne? Lineker? Shearer? Rooney? (Edit, I missed mega man Beckham.) Ooh I fell over £100m Grealish? Nah, youz Ingerlaanders need some women. Chapeau.
