James lucky to not get 3 IMO. Wise to not ONLY give her 1 in any case.

WWC23 | England v Spain - Spain win the World Cup - and Rubiales gets sacked
- Thread starter jojojo
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
So she could be back for the final if England get there. Nice. Glad her tournament isn’t over just yet.
Yep 9pm here in the eastern US, so I'll be watching
That should have been 1-0 for Spain.
Rooting for the Dutch. If their men can't win a a WC by being 2nd or 3rd best so often, then the women should be saved from the same fate. Being the perennial bridesmaid is never fun im sure.
Van Domselaar... damn! Some crazy save!
If they proceed she could have a good shout at being goalie of the tourney. Made some immense saves before as well.

Offside! That was the tightest of margins, but the Dutch Ds are leaving Van Domselaar to dry repeatedly.
Oh lovely goal there by Spain. Shame it was offside . I’m kind of rooting for the Netherlands there as I have several Dutch friends, but have to admit Spain are playing better football.
Spitse in particular is terrible and constantly being caught out.
Spain go close again.
Spain deserve to wn this game
The Spanish women seem to play the most like the men from what I've seen this tourney. Very efficient passers.
Yeah, they’re impressive players, nice tidy passers and good press. Flashes of excellent skill too.
Dutch got robbed of a penalty.
That's a penalty to Spain. How scatterbrained was Van der Gragt on that?
edit: That defender is 30 years old. What is up with veterans playing like crap in this World Cup?

Definitely.That's a penalty to Spain. How scatterbrained was Van der Gragt on that?
That was probably inside, but that angle the VAR showed was very much in favour of Spain. Shouldn't they at least have looked at more angles?
Beerensteyn... selfish AF on a 3v2 attack, are you serious? 
That Dutch PK call should have never been overturned but at the same time you can't say Spain don't deserve the lead here.
I still think Japan is the only team that has truly looked impressive this WC so id be surprised if they dont win it all.

OH MYYYYYYYY!!!! Guess who has scored for the Dutch.
Still 10 minutes of injury time left to play.

Entertain me ladies!

I hope they show the proof that was not offside on the 1-1 and did not just keep as a pity move. Felt really odd there was not a longer check on that!
Nice shot though!
Nice shot though!
They just did. Perfectly timed run by Van der Gragt.
Great. It came 30 seconds later on my feed :-)
Drama is great. Proper WC game this.
The penalty Netherlands got denied would also have resulted in a red card for the Spain defender. If it was a penalty it would be red card as well. I´d rather have that be a non-call than both red and a penalty. VAR is doing great actually.
It is. It’s keeping me up even though I’m tired as feck.
Great shot by Paralluelo to find the back of the net, but that was very poorly played by the Dutch defender too.
What on earth was the Dutch defender thinking showing the Spaniard onto the stronger foot? Was really dreadful defending.
ffs WC over.
I am a soldier of Salma Paralluelo. What a World Cup she is doing!
I woke up late and only saw the extra time. I don't know how the rest of the match went but the Netherlands had two very very good chances.
A pity that Alexia is not 100% (I guess that's the reason for her lack of minutes), every time she touches the ball she does something good.
I guess with a semi-final the girls won't be able to get rid of Vilda in their life.

Good game. Final score more or less accurately reflected the balance across the entire game. Beerensteyn will rue missing those chances and Miedema is probably punching a wall somewhere.
Barcelona player, no? She did so well when she came on, and what a great moment for a teenager, but Hermoso was astoundingly good. Ona Batlle too.I am a soldier of Salma Paralluelo. What a World Cup she is doing!

Yes, at Barça. In the starting team there were 6 Barcelona players and 3 Madrid players. Even Madrid's goalkeeper, Misa Rodríguez, well known to the fans, lost her place after the match against Japan.
I also like Hermoso a lot,she already did very well in the previous World Cup.
Watching Spains game I felt only love for Ona. Watching Englands games I feel only contempt for Russo
Russo really burned bridges with her "so called favorite clubs" fan base, to put it mildly.

We could've won that with Miedema upfront. Looks like a deserved result all in all though (judging from extended highlights).
Shots were like 13-1 Spain at one time so yes, better team advanced. Just a shame we had so many sh1t teams on the other half of the playoff tree. I would like seeding to take place before knock out rounds or something.

OMG. Olivia Schough of sweden has a yellow card into the quartertfinals. you are seriously telling me a player is suspended for the semi-finals if they get 2 yellow cards out 3 group games and 16th finals and quarter finals? What an absolute joke! The people behind this rule really must want the best players of the world to miss the best games!
