Before anyone bleats, if the women's game wishes to be taken seriously as a professional sport, they need to accept the occasional jest at their expense ! Think of the ribbing the men's team would have received given a similar set of penalties ...

Even my mrs laughed at that.

I've only just noticed Germany have a player called Minge.

11 out of the 14 penalties in tonight’s penalty shoot out scored. Presumably this now means the women’s game is every bit as good as the men’s.

Childish giggles, obvs, but reminds me of Euro 96 and 11 Kuntz

They seem to make a habit of unfortunate surnames, those of us who've seen a few winters will recall Germany's goal scorer in the 1996 Euro's semi-final, Stefan Kuntz !

The Germans win on penalties ... " Plus ca change, plus ca meme chose ! "

I never commented last week because I was being a bit slow.

If you haven't seen Berger's save to prevent a German own goal last night, go and find it. Really good.
