    Not sure that worked I didn’t see the game but it doesn’t seem they had an abundance of good luck

    Just saw the penalty miss and disallowed goal. Poor pen and if the goalie guesses right which she did. But the offside goal. What was it half a toenail. I thought they had changed the rules to favour the attacker in case the players are level.
    Feel sorry for them. In danger of following the men in never winning anything

    Penalty kick crap (about as clinical as Dave Regis). Offside definitely in spite of the woman commentator ( don't know her name) saying she was on. Overall the team weren't good enough but they did give it a go so fair do's to them.

    Iim not usually very pro USA but I thought they were unlucky to have that penalty awarded.

    Hand on heart as disappointing as it was, for me, the best team won. The USA's overall game
    management was better than ours and their passing was more precise. We conceded far too
    much possession in the key areas. Hopefully, they are able to improve in the third place play
    off game and kick on to do better in the Euro Finals which will be played in England in 2021.

    The penalty decision was absolutely ludicrous. Never in a million years was that a foul.

    Having said that, I thought that the offside decision was also incorrect. I thought that VAR was supposed to be used to clear up obvious errors, not to disallow goals for being three millimetres offside.

    USA the better side. Slick, classy and fitter, albeit classless individuals. Would love to see them lose the final.

    We can’t defend and give the ball away cheaply, often in dangerous areas.
