Not an honourable win for England. Their goals were good, but too much pushing and fouling.

[–] vividspecter@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

It was the time wasting that annoyed me the most, and then the ref not giving enough injury time to cover it. Nevertheless England were the better team with some big mistakes from Australia in key moments.

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 9 points 2 years ago

Honourable is the right word. I don't think that Chilean ref we had with France would have put up with how physical they were.

World's best striker!!!

[–] Vampire@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

Fucking corker.

Everything was sliding towards a Spain-Eng final, and it tooke something exceptional to upset that fate

that is one of the best goals I have ever seen, bruces or sheilas

Clear foul. Disgraceful play by England

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

We lost to the empire

Our historic overlords

A dark day indeed

Well done England

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Exciting first half. England feel like they're playing better. Aggressive ending. Good times.

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

England feel like they're playing a bit too rough.

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Agree. They're riding the ragged line of penalty vs harming their enemy

[–] supercheesecake@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Still sour about the ashes stumping

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

England are good. They're no push over

[–] Gbagginsthe3rd@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

England looking strong

[–] Vampire@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great goal. Perfectly positioned – when she got it the right half of the net was open to her

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yup. It was great play by England.

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

A 3rd attack against Sam Kerr. It keeps happening

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

And kick off!

[–] aquarisces@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Although they didn’t come up with the win it’s has been great following the Matildas during this run. Looking forward to them hopefully carrying on this momentum into future matches!

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

English shoving our team about. Penalty

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

England playing the "I'm hurt" card. Watch her jump straight back in after penalty

[–] Vampire@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

That's it, England have won it

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Two attacks against Sam's legs now. That can't be a coincidence.

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

England score first goal
