    Thank goodness for them winning.

    I hate to imagine the crowing if those Aussies had prevailed.

    I’m not really a soccer aficionado but I’ve been impressed by these ladies and their manager. I’m away motor caravanning for the final and will not see it but my hopes are for a glorious end to their campaign! Keep these achievements going ladies! There has been talk of the Lionesses manager becoming the next men’s national soccer team ‘manageress’. Now that would be an achievement! 👍

    British decent for many, but they were not treated well or fairly by the ‘English’ authorities in their transportation. Oh, what a history and rivalry unfolds. Thankfully much today is good natured!

    Very true, in fact we see women’s sports on a real high at present and gaining popularity and representation in spectators, players and officials in all three codes of football both at home and abroad. The lionesses did look a little tired and lacking that zip we had seen previously, the better soccer team won on the day but they came second in style and did us English proud!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿.

    Not sure that Ella Toone should get embroiled in the 'kiss' story.

    Looks like the Spanish team are already forgotten as worthy Cup Winners and will be remembered for the aftermath (no comment on my views here....).

    id hate Englands terrific performance to get lost amongst the fallout.
