Women’s World Cup France 2019, 7 June - 7 July

Van der Sanden's finish when she did decide to attack later on suggested that she might have been right to head for the corner flag the first time.

I don't think the Netherlands can win without Martens uninjured and in top form and she's currently neither of those. Hopefully it'll be close, though.

wasn't van der sanden who went for the corner flag, it was someone else, forget who

Van de Sanden went for the corner flag with a few minutes on the clock and was effortlessly knocked off the ball. Had to feel for her she had a mare, looked like someone whod won a prize to play in a wc semi final

Der

Yep, and she got booed for it so rightly didn't dare do it again (and that's when she had that chance she blew in spectacular fashion).

yeah she went for the corner flag with about 4 minutes left. another of their lot went for it with 11 minutes left

RIP the Corinthian spirit

Nice finish. Terrible English defending though.

England look like they'd rather be somewhere else tbh.

just realised that England will in fact have the chance to beat one of these and prove me right or wrong!

Phil Neville's really got them up and motivated for this game.

... good timing!

This is a walkover. Another nice finish.

lol at this being comfortably the worst opening 20 minutes of any team in a tournament where one game finished 13-0

Game back on.

lmao 2-2

That escalated quickly!

class will out ;)

Oh no, VAR

A VAR Cry from Kensington

That second Sweden goal was a classy finish

stfu Dion Dublin, it was a handball

England are just too good to win

Love a goal line clearance.

Hup!

optimistic about the 2nd half. Yankees will be getting scared now.

The Dutch have done well so far.

Waiting on that 7-0 scoreline imago predicted though.

Dutch have done very well

Here we go. VAR.

wtf with this automatic booking of players who accidentally give away penalties

Good call. High foot

I think it was reckless enough for a yellow

:D

Rapinoe's "ta-daaaa!" pose destined to become a standard celebration for an entire generation of kids

Fuck it. Not watching this.

Lavelle!!!

Deserved a goal. She has been great.

Very well taken

I love it.

So many superstars on this team.

I was happy Lavelle scored. Wouldn’t have been happy with winning 1-0 on a penalty.

Regardless, crazy amount of skill from the entire team here

I also really like the Netherlands in general, actually, so it’s such a treat to watch this game

Deserved win of course. Too bad VAR had to secure it. Otoh they would have scored at some point.

giving the Dutch keeper WOTM in the 86th minute is tempting fate

Not really too bad that VAR spotted a chest-high assault that the ref missed. Xp

Hope theh snub Trump now

Yeah that challenge really should have been picked up by the ref in the first place. Stonewall peno

otm

think she was unsighted for it

Definitely. Just wanted to see a non-penalty goal that is more about play and strategy
