    Yes women keepers are a lot shorter than modern male ones, but the likes of Banks and Shilton weren't that tall, yet were top quality. 
    Banks and Shilton were both 6ft. Not very big for a men's goalkeeper but still taller than absolutely every first team keeper at this tournament except the Iceland one I think

    Spanish woman haven't got out of 3rd gear and are about to get a penalty to go 3 up if penalty can be scored.
    This will be scored or not 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Penaltyitis continues with some cracking goals in normal play.

    Switzerland barely laid a glove on them all game, really can't see anything but Spain winning this tournament.

    Especially as that is where Young Boys play.

    I still think Spain are the team to beat but Switzerland gave them a good game.

    Fantastic technique by Pina for the 2nd goal. She's not that big but just like against Belgium gets power in her shots and they Sail into the top corner.
    Bonmati did a brilliant back flick for the 1st goal when she had two defenders on her but her team mate read it.
    Spain are the team to beat and France are the only team left that has a reasonable chance of doing that.

    Steph Houghton England's ex captain believes it will be a France v England Final.

    I'm still with Spain to add the Euros to the World cup when they outclassed England in the final, and could happen again if England beat the surprise semi finalists Italy.

    Bonmati really is a proper little player. Female Iniesta.

    Absurd red card for Germany for hair pulling in the area, and France have a penalty which they score.  1-0

    Currently 1-1 and Germany making it hard for France despite having one player less.

    Apparently ref had no choice as its a mandatory red card...like when Cucarella had his hair pulled in the Club world cup last week.  Seems a bit OTT.

    I sent my son who's watching in the stadium a still of the hair pulling as he didn't know what the red card and penalty was for as they didn't show a reply in the ground. 
    A yellow card and a penalty should be enough punishment.
    Germany the most successful women's team ever in the Euros against the great under achievers France 
    I want France to win for Cascarino's sake as she has already scored the best goal in the Euros and she nearly scored the 2nd best goal. 

    The 10 German women are giving it everything and they are tough competitors.

    Hair pulling is a massive no no, so it’s a red card and they all know it.
    It’s why the French bird just turned around and looked at her like, what were you thinking? Unlike Cucarella who went down like he’d been shot 🤣🤣

    Great game so far.

    I didn't watch any of the world crap championship so I didn't realize pulling hair was a red and not a yellow card offence.
    Didn't the German girl realize VAR would catch her out ?
    At least Crouch was a tad more subtle when he scored a world cup goal while tugging the dreadlocks of Sancho of Trinidad. No VAR back in 2006.

    Especially in women's football,  as let's face it, more female players have flowing locks!

    I meant absurd penalty because it was an idiotic thing to do in the area. France have had two goals rightly chalked off for offside,  and Germany missed a penalty. 

    I have to admit, I want extra time and .... yes ...penalties!

    Probably the best save I’ve ever seen in a women’s game. Quality.

    Fair play to Germany for still hanging in there despite playing over 90 mins with a player down.

    Minge has kept it really tight at the back.
