To be fair I'm not a fan of seeing bad decisions so I've a lot of sympathy for the Italians.

I didn't see a great replay but it looked a really soft decision.

The Italians tried to cheat their way to victory there. Not a great performance, but they deserved to win. Chloe Kelly has to start.

Tough on the Italian keeper. She'd a good game.

Some people may call the “quality” of the women’s game, but what they can’t deny is this group of Lionesses don’t know when they are beaten

I'm not sure that the England penalty would have been given
had it occurred in the mens' game.
Or should I say I've seen worse (in the mens' game) not given.

Still you've got to give to the ladies.
They keep coming back.

Not too sure how they'll fare in the final especially if it's Spain
but hey ho they're in another final.

Well done the Lionesses.

The front 3, Russo, Hemp, James/Mead have grown old together and never look like scoring but the young guns coming on late is working so I doubt there’ll be any change for the final.

I said at the time that it was a soft one but it's not something that VAR would overturn as there was a bit of contact.

We'll see far softer given next year in the premier league.

Wow. I’m stunned at that. James seems to be carrying a knock so I’ll forgive her but Hemp has metal boots. She was flying past people when they won it but never got beyond her marker all night for pace. Russo is a good line leader but currently struggling for goals. Not helped by being so isolated.

Interesting match-up in the other semi final tonight ... Germany v Spain

I see the Italians have lodged an official complaint about the penalty award last night, with their Coach saying it wouldn't have been a free kick any where else on the pitch. On the contrary, it would have been given 9 times out of 10 outside the Box, but Referees often ignore holding/wrestling offences in the penalty area. The Referee had the guts to award it last night, well done her.

England's equaliser last night came 5 minutes & 3 seconds into stoppage time. The Italians might reflect that had they not stayed down after every hard tackle or foul, there would not have been 7 minutes extra added on ...

My thoughts exactly. Germany play in a straightforward way. Spain very skilful and smother their opposition.

Come on Germany! (Not sure about penalties but I don't think it would matter anyway)
