I don't find it as bad in the main European leagues as in South America. I find those games totally unwatchable.

Hi,

Same here, mostly as it looks to me as just another commercial advertisement ... and watching the WWF fight between Liverpool and Manchester City, just was not exciting, despite the announcer making it so. It's over rated in my book, because of the abundance of talent on display that was bought, and not trained right here ... you would want your own child to have a chance, but never will!

At least, you get a better feeling in the women's game, and although it is becoming obvious that 5 teams or so around the world are now the big names that buy everything, at least you know there is some real fight in between and the women are trying hard to do well, and it shows.

I just watch the MLS highlights and the EPL highlights these days ... gave up on the games because of the big names. Did the same thing in basketball after Bird and Magic ... the fun just went out of the ball and it was now just another air ball out there. having seen Bird go .. watch this Magic at the Forum, and then Magic go ... watch this Bird at the Garden, was just a wonderful show and they both laughed and hugged afterwards.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Well. It is, indeedy, coming home.

Good game, good performance, and any chance of the winning coach replacing Southgate?

Congrats England! Well done from a German. It wasn't to be.

Nice first goal , those dinky chipped style finishes are so pleasing on the eye. Overall England were a tad lucky and had to repel a very strong German pressing game, but sheer grit and determination won through in the end.

She prepared the team beautifully but you still need that tiny bit of luck to win. This could be a massive boost for the men coming up and certainly Southgate could do worse than have her in the men's set up as a technical advisor Clap

The England team bursting into the press conference singing "Football's coming home" is the best thing I've seen for ages.
