Midfield is non existent when going forward

That Spain number 6 is brilliant

 

[MrPerfectNot]

Quick USA-centric comment: we would be down 3-nil by now against either of these sides playing as they are.

 

[PhilM]

Really stupid decision that by Bronze, made even worse by the fact she didn't bother to even try to get back into position either.

The aerial view that they showed when replaying the goal appeared to show her look at the ref and gesticulate, claiming it was a foul, rather than tracking back.

 

[Saaby]

England can’t get close enough to Spain and the dirty tactics against Australia they did are not working here.

 

[degsy]

Up to now - Spain are doing to England what England did to Australia in the Semis

Definitely not getting that as a foul out of Tori Penso.

 

[Billy Dean]

Need to get to HT and try to regroup

Nah, Spain are not flying into reckless tackles and getting away with it. Spain are better technically and playing a lot better.

 

[degsy]

Have England got a change of gear and / or formation in them?
James?

I meant generally bossing it

 

[Bilko]

They are head and shoulders above England.

And there it is. I kept putting off saying that I thought Earps was our weak link. That was mostly because of how she's been beaten from distance more than once. But every time she claps her gloves and shouts at her defense I just think 'Sort yourself out first!"

Mind you, it might also be because she's got an annoying face.

She was just stropping from what I could tell. She wants a slap from the manager.

 

[Jimishorts]

That big organised defence is where England look very solid. That air of confidence.

0-0 written all over it this

Classic GOT punditry.
