just seen the highlights. Both team's outfield players have a lot of skill and played at a decent tempo. The goalkeepers are terrible though. All 3 goals the keepers should have done better.

It's enjoyable but it is a mistake to compare it to the men's game. It is completely different in pace and physicality. That doesn't make it less enjoyable, just different.

In fact the only real similarity with the men's game is the number of tattoos.

Thanks for that Chris, thought I was imagining it, I haven't called it Togger for nearly 30 years.


Yes!!  But it was early 70s when we called it that, so 40+ years ago.
Three and yer in was the favourite game if I remember right!

Rush goalies!

The one who scores fetches the ball.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

No, the one who misses!

It must be embedded in the football brain and explain why players score then run round the back of the goal.

I didn't see the game, just the goals.

I see I wasn't wrong about women goalkeepers.

Didn't realise until my son texted me today but the SF is like WWII.

(Except the Yanks didn't get a bye to the quarter finals, and Italy didn't pull out half way through)

USA beat Germany 2-0 in the first semi-final.   Good to see Germany's top scorer miss a penalty to take the lead in the second half.  Germany should have lost to Norway as the penalty they got in that game was "ball to hand".

I did not watch the game but reports say that Germany started strongly, only for the USA to finish strongly and deserved winners.

We just need to do the business now to set up a cracking final.
