Kelly puts it in. Not really deserved but England through to quarters. Need to look at themselves before next game.

Great result but the commentator was dire, has nothing to do with her being a woman just a very poor commentator.

Wish some of the blokes could hit a penalty that hard.
Dodged a bullet, but you need that luck to win a tournament.

Them last four England penalties were incredible. Deffo got out of jail there. Nigeria superb. Great summer holiday viewing for my young daughters.

Another quite turgid game where the teams mainly cancelled one another out, very good defensive performance from both sides.
Nigeria were the better team and played a pressing game that Wagner would be proud of. They were just too one dimensional in the final third, it was clear within 5 minutes that they wouldn't get any luck from crosses, but they carried on and on. England were no great shakes, need to do much better if we want to get anything from this tournament.

Not deserved at all, with regards to the whole game, however, tournament football is all about getting through each round.
Can't understand the pundits in the studio saying Nigeria should have had a pen, you can't give one of those & not the other.
Good luck lasses.

How on earth were Nigeria ranked 40th ? Looked very good and much too physical for our girls. Makes a change for an England team to progress having been second best.
James will be a miss for the remainder of the tournament, but we can do it. UTL !

Has she never heard of the curse of the commentator. Rachel Finnis-Brown is horrendous as well. Adds absolutely nothing to proceedings. As poor as England were, Nigeria didn't really create anything and England probably had the better chances. Nigeria were straight out of the USA mold of supreme athletes who were too strong and too quick for England. They won their one on one battles all over the pitch but had little to no quality and finesse with the ball.

Could be given two I think, when the disciplinary committee looks at it. More of a step than a stamp, so she may get away with it. Probably 50:50

Gosh that was tense...Nigeria ladies just a bit too physical for us I thought..not dirty, just never gave us time..The sending off was madness but she'll be mightily relieved England won and saved herself decades of abuse... Interestingly I thought the sending off affected Nigeria more than us,it's like the expectation level was too much for them , and i wasn't surprised they fluffed their pens..the pressure just got them more than the England ladies.
Onto the quarter finals but I think we've just had our hardest game tbh.

More of a step than a stamp, so she may get away with it. Probably 50:50 A Nigeria player got a red card in their first group game for serious foul play and that was upgraded to a 3 match ban. It is possible that James will get something similar given the intent.

Gobshite Pearce has just said, about something, "I can't quite see from my commentary position". He's got Sue Smith with him, she was watching the Town match from the Sky studio on Saturday. Presume he's pretending to be there.

Presume he's pretending to be there. Commentators on the England game were talking about jet lag so it's possible they could just have got there.
