I'm not really in to footy but I watched the game with OH. He's been following the women's games for a while.

Ditto what Pat said .... It was brilliant. Very exciting!
Well done to the Lionesses <3

Pity the FA won't fork out for a double decker like the male cricketers had when they won Ashes and when England male rugby team won the Rugby World Cup. Why can't woman go round on a bus, lots want to see them :-|

The other things I liked was no booing through the National Anthems and little if no spitting :-0 :-D

Edge of sit watching :-D

Well done, you showed the men how to do it. No prima donnas groaning and rolling in supposed pain with the slightest knock.

You deserved the win, enjoy your moment :-D <3

I watched it heart in mouth, shouting at them to attack more which, I have to say, they most certainly did in the extra time when I thought they completely took command. I also thought that they played as a solid team with no one going for lone glory, again, something I admire.

Well done, bravo, three cheers to all associated with the team, particularly the manager and the team itself.

Yes well done. I don't watch football but at son's last week sort of watched three of their matches as I was in the room when they were on and admired them and how they played. yesterday although I didn't watch the match I did keep flicking over to it to see how they were doing and they deserved to win, the German ladies were tough and aggressive so an excellent result.
Congratulations Lionesses.

Terrific, well done!

Ian Wright was really supportive to them, along with Alex Scott. :-D <3

I feel quite worn out now.
