England v Sweden. What a nail biter!
I hate penalty shoot outs and thought it was all over (from behind my cushion) but they would not give in. I thought Sarina Wiegman looked shell shocked at the winning save!

Well Done Girls! Now the semis! ⚽️⚽️

Nail biting match again! Roll on Sunday for the final!

Good result for celebrating all the Birthdays today. smile x

Will Prince George be at the final?

Well done Lionesses, bring on the final on Sunday, c' mon England🏆

The thing I noticed - not to do with the game - was how, when interviewed, the women all speak well. They seem nice sort of people.

Allira Wed 23-Jul-25 11:26:54

Well done!

Who will they face in the final?

escaped Wed 23-Jul-25 11:32:52

Whoever wins tonight.
Germany or Spain.

I watched but I was also watching the Sewing Bee so kept switching between the two channels.

At 88 minutes I thought this is it now and England have lost but apparently not!

Bridie22 Thu 24-Jul-25 06:49:03

England v Spain in the final on Sunday, should be an interesting game, c" mon England!

Bridie22 Sun 27-Jul-25 15:15:58

Nearly kick off time, c' mon lionesses, you can do this .🏆

Desdemona Sun 27-Jul-25 15:49:04

Shall be watching and cheering them on shortly.

Why is there not the frenzy and celebration that goes along with the mens games though - quite sad.

Good Luck Lionesses.

dogsmother Sun 27-Jul-25 16:01:41

So looking forward to this, win or lose it’s the final they did amazingly well to achieve this place.
To all the naysayers Stop looking at this thread even !!

Bridie22 Sun 27-Jul-25 16:03:55

Win or lose they have been hard working and brilliant players.

escaped Sun 27-Jul-25 16:11:49

We're off to the DGCs to watch it in a minute.
I asked DH to say a little prayer when he was singing in services today!

Bukkie Sun 27-Jul-25 16:23:27

Bridie22 - Yes I agree, they are a great group of ladies managed by the wonderful Sarina Weigman. The Lionesses never give up even when behind. I so want them to win again.

Just heard from D1 that SIL and GS2 ( a keen footballer, plays for Birmingham City under 13’s ) who are currently on a cycling tour starting in Switzerland , and along the Rhine valley with GS’s school, - are at the final
Quelle coincidence 😂😂😂

ayse Sun 27-Jul-25 18:42:22

I don’t generally watch football. I’m currently avoiding it as I so want Lionesses to win but can’t bear the tension. Silly, I know. Currently it’s 1 - 1. I wish them all the best, win or loose.

TillyTrotter Sun 27-Jul-25 19:10:04

It’s anybody’s game now it’s gone to extra time.
And if it goes to Penalties - well it’s like Russian Roulette!

TillyTrotter Sun 27-Jul-25 19:11:46

It will be an incredible atmosphere Rosieand herMaw come on Lionesses 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽️

MiniMoon Sun 27-Jul-25 19:38:32

Oh no! Penalties.

I can't watch.

merlotgran Sun 27-Jul-25 19:42:55

Neither can I 😩

Jaxjacky Sun 27-Jul-25 19:49:00

Nerve held, well done 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
