England Women: The Lionesses

[crocos]

Amazing turnaround in ET - it looked like we were out on our feet and running on empty towards the end of the second half of normal time.

Brilliant brilliant brilliant :~}

 

[wolvesaywe]

What a game, what an achievement

Feel sorry for all the detractors who haven't got to share in a genuinely incredible sporting moment.

Losers in more ways than one.

 

[tonto]

Not the way hwang is playing. It's that bad!

Dow spoil it
I have to dream

 

[Nige100]

The ladies bought the game home. Well done to them all absolutely outstanding all tournament.

Can we give a Dutch woman a damehood? asking for a friend

 

[manchesterwolf17]

The QF against Spain was the turning point. 1-0 down with a few minutes left, not looking like scoring, but finding a way. Brilliant stuff.

 

[WolfLing]

Amazing stuff. Well done Lionesses.

 

[sillytuna]

Also, the women's game is night and day from 10-15 years ago. As enjoyable (and not!) as any men's match. Any detractors, shame on you.

 

[rg4352]

Oh man im so happy for Lucy bronze, crying my eyes out, im happy for all of them, but she’s waited so long for this and she’s just the loveliest person, I’m sure they all are but ah man! Sorry im a sobbing rambling mess!

 

[Keith maniac]

They are waiting for JT to turn up in his kit before they hand us the trophy.

 

[SquaddieWolf]

Mead with player of the tournament aswell as Golden Boot, WELL DONE

 

[Fenrir_]

Well done to them!! Thoroughly deserved it and those scenes at the end are what the game is all about. Chuffed for them all

 

[siwolf80]

Absolutely fantastic, throughly deserved over the course of the tournament.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Yabba Dabba Do……fantastic. A great lift for England.

 

[Jonzy54]

Brilliant .Well done

 

[Streathamwolf]

HRH going for maximum hugs!

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Fireworks going off everywhere where I live

Absolutely. Over 87,000 fans in there. A proper loud and emotional celebration. They fully deserved it.

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Fabulous, a team full of guts and personality to win it as they did. Toone's goal was sheer class, at any level.

Sympathy for Magull, didn't deserve to be on the losing side and Germany completely lost their focus when she was withdrawn. Chloe Kelly living and bleeding it in those final 10 minutes.

Proper winners' mentality.

 

[rg4352]

You say it Leah Williamson! What a captain

 

[Tring Wolf]

Just fantastic.

It’s wonderful how far the women’s game has come. I manage three girls in my son’s Under 13’s side and to see how they (and a whole generation) have been inspired by this England team has been brilliant.

Leah Williamson and Lucy Bronze are absolute ballers.

 

[Hot Fuss]

Superb. Well gone girls.

 

[JadeWolf]

HRH going for maximum hugs!

Dare we ask what he was saying to them…dirty boy!

 

[Boss Hogg]

Incredible, fantastic achievement well done ladies. This has the power to transform the womens game in England now!

 

[Munich_Wolf]

The celebrations are something else.... absolutely brilliant

 

[Very Proud (AKA Still Proud)]

Wow, what a game, what a tournament, what a story. These celebrations are something else.

Congratulations England.

 

[JadeWolf]

This is huge for women’s football/sport, but let’s not think it’s cracked now, gotta keep going.

 

[WolfLing]

HRH going for maximum hugs!

While the wife’s away, the prince will play!

No escaping that label, once it’s been pegged on. So to speak.

 

[SquaddieWolf]

Dare we ask what he was saying to them…dirty boy!

It's ok, he's not his uncle

 

[GY Wolf]

This can be a lesson to the male footballers to show their personality more, less of the clichés and soundbites in interviews. Clearly the women are much more relaxed and surely helps in their performance.

 

[maws]

HRH going for maximum pegs!

Sorted that for you

 

[Kebab Warrior]

Bloody brilliant. Absolutely over the moon!

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Soo much passion

 

[WV10Wolf]

Dare we ask what he was saying to them…dirty boy!

I’m sure they’d bring him down a peg or two……

 

[wolvesaywe]

Dare we ask what he was saying to them…dirty boy!

"Andrew's having a party at pizza express later and you're all invited"

 

[Flump]

Dare we ask what he was saying to them…dirty boy!

"Congratulations, enjoy it, we're all proud of you", or something to that effect?

 

[The Wolf In The North]

A word for Sarina Wiegman, how special is she? So composed, so sharp, two Euro wins and a World Cup Final, she bolstered that team and perfected a gameplan, never panicked, even after the slight falter against Spain. For all the talent and backbone on the field, she was the sculptress. Deserves massive respect.

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

Can we give a Dutch woman a damehood? asking for a friend

Perhaps we could give her a cap?

Just shows you at the elite level when the teams are quite well matched, the difference a quality coach/manager can make.
