Someone's going to have to put a "draconian" tag on ol' Bobby finger over here.

That was some goal. Amazing control to bring down the cross and guide it in. All left footed as well. Then nearly another one.

Two match ban for Lauren James so if England manage to get to the final she could play.

I did wonder if they would give her a harsher penalty. Different end of the body but Suarez basically got booted out of the tournament and got a domestic ban as well...

FIFA had to be shown to be stamping down (er...) on stuff like this so an extra match ban isn't a surprise, it still boggles my mind that with all the cameras that are there that she did it in the first place, she clearly wasn't thinking because it's nuts.

Going to be an interesting end to this one potentially.
edit: not exactly subtle dive, just as well the penalty was missed.

Missed this game as I was at the cinema.  England are just going to have to do it tomorrow. |

France's passing has been very sloppy this half but their closing down to recover has been insane. That chance they gifted Australia sums their performance up.

Do we need as many long, lingering close-ups of the France manager? He’s chiselled and tanned, but come on, he’s no Ginola

This match screams an undeserved French winner.

Another "No one wants to win it" shootout.
Great entertainment, and the better team won, I think.

I feel for the French player who got a second go and still failed to convert. Entertaining shoot out, and probably good for the competition that Aus are still in it
Come on England!

Quite a difference in the enthusiasm for the anthems there.
Ours really is a pile of shit.

6 year box pinball there.
And so the theatrics begin.

No card either. That will embolden them.

Getting away with a couple of questionable challenges there.

Not really looking much like scoring so far. Columbia defending really well.
