Like I said I like our chances better than Norway's. England is going to take them to the woodshed.

Norway seems very patient. Sometimes they just sit back and give England enough time to have BBQ back there...
England vs. Norway in the 32nd minute Ref got it right with no call. No VAR involved. Norway forward shot on goal. Ball struck English defenders foot. Ball deflected upward striking the defenders arm.

That should have been a handball on Demi Stokes, although as a parent of a defender I am glad when they use context related discretion.

England's right hand side is killing Norway. White might end up with the Golden Ball. She just tied Morgan and Kerr and her goals weren't against cupcakes like both of theirs' were.
That was a slick goal. Played calmly and with vision.
Just when Norway looked like it could climb back at the doable 2-0 scoreline. England pounds a third home. Game over.
I suspect tomorrow’s game may be very similar to the one against Spain. I have to admit Spain tried to play more physical and disruptive, with forsaking the style of play shown prior. Will France do the same?

I hoping France feels tight due to the pressure and underperforms on the big stage
Hopefully! Or they come out enfuego. Don’t want that.

You beat me to it. Why would you every hit it at chest height? Make them go low or high. Not to mention that she telegraphed it.

Tomorrow's game is getting hyped up....

"Friday night’s World Cup quarterfinal between the top-ranked U.S. women and host France has been sold out for weeks. Tickets on the resale market ranged from $182 -- that’s for a seat in the rafters -- to $2,160 on Thursday. Coverage of France’s women’s team has pushed the men’s team – and Neymar – to the inside pages of the papers. A soccer store near Parc des Princes that two weeks ago didn’t have anything World Cup-related on display now has two window fronts filled with merchandise for the game, including T-shirts with “Allez Les Bleues!” emblazoned on the front, the extra e in bold red."
