Without doubt yesterday's 'stolen' hat-trick by Lauren James could be the greatest hat-trick ever scored in men's or women's game , that never was. Because of a ludicrous VAR and referee decision (don't expect to see her again). Ball clearly came off the chinese player and Lucy Bronze was clearly onside.
Well worth a watch, three stunning goals , 2 on her 'wrong' foot.

USA out by one centimetre or should that be 0.3937008 inches. It is still the beautiful game on occasions.

Blimey, I'm glad we went through but we really didn't deserve that win. Still, nice to see England go through on penalties!

Rachel Daly and Chloe Kelly penalties were enjoyed by Alan Shearer.
The england women haven't learnt a thing from the england men's penalty disasters!
England have two natural finishers Rachel Daly and Lauren James, they will have their say if the team create enough opportunities.

If England can win without rachel daly or lauren james scoring then watch out Australia and Sweden !
If anybody tells you Columbia's goal was meant then just laugh at them.
W.T.F has happened to Australia ? Columbia was playing a home game in Australia against England ?

I quite liked it: assuming it was deliberate, it plays back to an earlier observation on here as to contemporary justifications as to why women were barred from Olympic athletics events longer than the 800m.

From the article "Generally, this is put down to engrained gender expectations and how sport functions in society." and well yes I'd guess lesbians figure out earlier than most that gender stereotyping does few favours for women of aspiration
