Not an honourable win for England. Their goals were good, but too much pushing and fouling.

[–] vividspecter@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

It was the time wasting that annoyed me the most, and then the ref not giving enough injury time to cover it. Nevertheless England were the better team with some big mistakes from Australia in key moments.

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 9 points 1 year ago

Honourable is the right word. I don't think that Chilean ref we had with France would have put up with how physical they were.

Clear foul. Disgraceful play by England

England looking strong

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

England are good. They're no push over

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exciting first half. England feel like they're playing better. Aggressive ending. Good times.

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

England feel like they're playing a bit too rough.

[–] supercheesecake@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Still sour about the ashes stumping

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Agree. They're riding the ragged line of penalty vs harming their enemy

We lost to the empire

Our historic overlords

A dark day indeed

Well done England

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

And kick off!

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

A 3rd attack against Sam Kerr. It keeps happening

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

England score first goal

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

English shoving our team about. Penalty

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

England playing the "I'm hurt" card. Watch her jump straight back in after penalty

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Two attacks against Sam's legs now. That can't be a coincidence.

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK

Although they didn’t come up with the win it’s has been great following the Matildas during this run. Looking forward to them hopefully carrying on this momentum into future matches!
