French CF gets her nose broken by a high boot but cos it's Australia it's not looked at by VAR 🤔

Been a good game, good standard as you'd expect from quarters onward. Chances for both sides to win it but strong defending has kept it at 0-0. If it goes to ET I think Aus could nick it with Kerr coming on as sub.

End to end stuff but it won't go in, at least without fouling. France get goal disallowed for fouling but it shouldn't have been their corner anyway. Still can't pick a winner here, thought Aus athleticism would seem them through but it's very close.

Something you don't see often. France expecting it to go to pens so have brought on a sub keeper as she is supposedly a 'penalty specialist'.

who's the penalty kings then ?
pressure on the Aussie's I think will be their undoing...so 4-2 France...think i'd rather England play France tbh but small matter of Colombia first..

And so on to pens. Pressure on the sub keeper brought on specifically to save pens.

Weird giving the decisive pen to the goalie.

Aussie goalie complaining about a French girl stuttering in her run. The keeper was off her line anyway.

Does any goalie not move off the line?

Maybe France justified in subbing keeper for pens. Her outfield are letting her down with some pens though.

French no 23 misses. I'm sure it was Brahima Diarra 😯

Mentioned to the wife that it would be great if the Australian team's nickname was the Sheilas... even better it's the Matildas!

Aus have home nation advantage. Whether the partisan big crowds are playing on their nerves a bit or pushing them on is debatable I guess. Got to get past Columbia yet.

Desperate defending by Columbia, England looking up for it.

Maybe a few up and down the country who wouldn't normally watch might catch at least 2nd half as they have a pre match pint or two.

England looking sharper this game. Couple of decent chances so far.

Most of the football still being played in Columbias half but England can't be complacent, they can break quickly with like of Caicedo.

Slightly against run of play Columbia go a goal up, probably a mishit cross but Earps no chance as it just crept under bar.

Bad positioning, you just knew the keeper wasn't going to get there
